[Python-Dev] New contributors at the PyCon sprint

[Brian Curtin]

Hi all,

As I'm sure you're all aware, the PyCon sprints are going on right now and
will run for two more days. As a result, you may have noticed an increased
number of patches over the last few days -- many of these were from
first-time contributors. The turnout for the CPython sprint has been huge
and I wanted to introduce and thank a number of people for coming out.

Scott Wilson
Denver Coneybeare
Jeff Ramnani
Alicia Arlen
Michael Henry
Natalia Bidart
Matias Bordese
Robbie Clemons
Evan Dandrea
Jonathan Hartley
Piotr Kaspyrzyk
Brandon Craig Rhodes

There were a few others from which I didn't get their name, but thanks to
everyone for your contributions!

http://wiki.python.org/moin/Pycon2011Sprint has a listing of what the new
contributors have been working on, including the issues that have been
submitted.

Additionally, I did a small write-up (with a picture!) of what everyone has
been up to:
