Thanks for setting this up. I'm pretty sure those dates work for me, and I'll plan on coming. Perhaps, even if some people can't come in person, we can set up some online participation, particularly through https://zulip.sagemath.org. In particular, in addition to the specific issues you mentioned on the wiki page, I want to figure out a way to organize some kind of bug bash to work through the several hundred relatively trivial test failures. Most of these failures don't show up when you try to run the doctests in Python 3 off the current develop branch. But my private Python 3 branch (which has many open Python 3 tickets merged in, as well as some other fixes that still need tickets) the doctests run from start to finish and a good many of the failures are of this relatively trivial variety. So before the workshop I'm going to try to get more of my existing Python 3 fixes properly integrated, but I can also make my Python 3 branch available for others to play in (the only reason it's "private" is that its commit history is a huge mess). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
