python testing sprint June 20th-26th 2016
======================================================

The pytest core group is heading towards the biggest sprint
in its history, to take place in the black forest town Freiburg
in Germany. As of February 2016 we have started a `funding
campaign on Indiegogo to cover expenses`_ The page
also mentionds some preliminary topics.
Participants
--------------
Here are preliminary participants who said they are likely to come,
given some expenses funding::
Andreas Pelme, Sweden
Brianna Laughner, Australia
Bruno Oliveira, Brazil
Floris Bruhin, Switzerland
Florian Bruynooghe, UK
Holger Krekel, Germany
Omar Kohl, Germany
Raphael Pierzina, US/UK
Tom Viner , 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 :)
Sprint organisation, schedule
-------------------------------
tentative schedule:
- 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
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 10.000 Euro 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.
If we have excess money we'll use for further sprint/travel
funding for pytest/tox contributors.
