Last night I met with the Front Range Pythoneers in Boulder, CO. At least 3 of the developers were interested in participating in a sprint on Jan 13th. Some of them have Pylons experience, some with Genshi. At least one person had sprinted on Django in the past. Anyway, if anyone is interested in coming down to Bivio in Boulder, CO for the sprint in January you are welcome to. Bivio is on the corner of 28th and Iris, in the suite above the hair salon. I will of course be attending.
cheers. -chris On Dec 14, 1:43 pm, "Mark Ramm" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > So, here's my crazy idea.
