Preface: I’m sorry for everyone who has received this mail three times
because they are already subscribed to the other two lists I’ve sent it
to.
Hi,
In addition to the sprints that are hosted about every two minor
releases, the Mercurial community organizes so called "mini-sprints" in
irregular intervals.
I attended the mini-sprint in April in Paris and I liked the experience,
so I offered to organize one in Leipzig. This email is to gather
information about potential participants and their time preferences.
So what's the goal of the mini-sprint? It's an opportunity for existing
developers to collaborate in person. But even more important, it's a
chance for mere users to become contributors. So no matter whether you
are a long-term contributor or someone wanting to start hacking on
Mercurial, you will be welcome.
The sprint will be 2-4 days long, depending on demand. For us, some
time in August would be ideal.
The location will be an office in Leipzig, which is easily reachable by
train. For example, from Paris it's about 8h for about 60€ – 120€.
From Frankfurt airport it's about 3h for about 20€ – 50€. It provides
space for around 10 people (more on weekends).
Lunch will be provided for a contribution towards expenses. At least 2
sleeping facilities can be provided free of charge.
I've created a poll for finding a date:

Please spread the word by forwarding the mail or the link to the poll.
-Manuel
