Participants
--------------
Here are preliminary participants who said they are likely to come,
given some expenses funding::
Anatoly Bubenkoff, Netherlands
Andreas Pelme, Personalkollen, Sweden
Anthony Wang, Splunk, US
Brianna Laugher, Australia
Bruno Oliveira, Brazil
Danielle Jenkins, Splunk, US
Dave Hunt, UK

<your name here?>
Other contributors and experienced newcomers are invited to join as well
but please send a mail to the pytest-dev mailing list if you intend to
do so somewhat soon, also how much funding you need if so. And if you
are working for a company and using pytest heavily you are welcome to
join and we encourage your company to provide some funding for the
sprint. They may see it, and rightfully so, as a very cheap and deep
training which brings you together with the experts in the field :)
Over 20 participants took part from 4 continents, including employees
from Splunk, Personalkollen, Cobe.io, FanDuel and Dolby. Some newcomers
mixed with developers who have worked on pytest since its beginning, and
of course everyone in between.
Sprint organisation, schedule
-------------------------------
tentative schedule:
People arrived in Freiburg on the 19th, with sprint development taking
place on 20th, 21st, 22nd, 24th and 25th. On the 23rd we took a break
day for some hot hiking in the Black Forest.
- 19/20th arrival in Freiburg
- 20th social get together, initial hacking
- 21/22th full sprint days
- 23rd break day, hiking
- 24/25th full sprint days
- 26th departure
Sprint activity was organised heavily around pairing, with plenty of group
discusssions to take advantage of the high bandwidth, and lightning talks
as well.
We might adjust according to weather to make sure that if
we do some hiking or excursion we'll have good weather.
Freiburg is one of the sunniest places in Germany so
it shouldn't be too much of a constraint.
Accomodation
----------------
We'll see to arrange for renting a flat with multiple
beds/rooms. Hotels are usually below 100 per night.
The earlier we book the better.
Money / funding
---------------
The Indiegogo campaign asks for 11000 USD which should cover
the costs for flights and accomodation, renting a sprint place
and maybe a bit of food as well.
If your organisation wants to support the sprint but prefers
to give money according to an invoice, get in contact with
holger at http://merlinux.eu who can invoice your organisation
properly.
The Indiegogo campaign aimed for 11000 USD and in the end raised over
12000, to reimburse travel costs, pay for a sprint venue and catering.
If we have excess money we'll use for further sprint/travel
funding for pytest/tox contributors.
Excess money is reserved for further sprint/travel funding for pytest/tox
contributors.
