Raniere, Thanks for the update. That all sounds great.
Ondrej and Aaron are the main SymPy admins and I admin for PyDy which handles some sub-packages of SymPy (wrt to GSoC). I'm happy to meet. I can do Thursday 10 am EST but would prefer an hour or two later. I think Ondrej is in MTZ and Aaron CTZ. Are there others that should be there? I see you have Spyder listed in you README currently.
