From cfbolz at gmx.de Sun May 4 17:27:01 2008 From: cfbolz at gmx.de (Carl Friedrich Bolz) Date: Sun, 04 May 2008 17:27:01 +0200 Subject: [pypy-sprint] PyPy Berlin Sprint, 17th - 22nd May 2008 Message-ID: <481DD5C5.9000609@gmx.de> ===================================================================== PyPy Berlin Sprint (17-22nd May 2008) ===================================================================== The next PyPy sprint will be in the crashed `c-base space station`_, Berlin, Germany, Earth, Solar System. This is a fully public sprint: newcomers (from all planets) and topics other than those proposed below are welcome. .. _`c-base space station`: http://www.c-base.org/ ------------------------------ Goals and topics of the sprint ------------------------------ - work on PyPy's JIT generator: we are refactoring parts of the compiling logic, in ways that may also allow generating better machine code for loops (people or aliens with knowledge on compilers and SSA, welcome) - work on the SPy VM, PyPy's Squeak implementation, particularly the graphics capabilities - work on PyPy's GameBoy emulator, which also needs graphics support - trying some large pure-Python applications or libraries on PyPy and fixing the resulting bugs. Possibilities are Zope 3, Django and others. * We are open to all sorts of other tasks during the sprint, just propose something. ----------------------- Location & Accomodation ----------------------- The sprint will take place in the c-base in Berlin. The address is:: c-base e.V. Rungestrasse 20 10179 Berlin To get there, take the U-Bahn or S-Bahn to the station "Jannowitzbr?cke". See here_ for a map to get to c-base from there. .. _here: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=c-base+berlin&ie=UTF8&ll=52.515464,13.408985&spn=0.020449,0.057335&z=15&iwloc=A If you want to come, please register via by svn: http://codespeak.net/svn/pypy/extradoc/sprintinfo/berlin-2008/people.txt or write a mail to the pypy-sprint mailing list if you do not yet have check-in rights: http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-sprint Of course, especially given the location, it's ok to show up even if you didn't register. (The c-base has probably got the plans of Guido's famous time machine anyway, so you can register last week.) ----------- Exact times ----------- The sprint will be from 17th to 22nd of May 2008. We will start sprinting every day at 10. An introduction will be given on the first day, if there is interest.

I'll definatelly come (probably only half of the days). If somebody (preferably someone I know) needs a place to sleep, I can offer a sofaplace. It's 10 minutes by bike or 15 minutes by public transport from the sprint location (it's even reachable on foot for a good walker: 30 minutes) Cheers Stephan Am Sonntag, 4.

They have sent us a questionnaire and would like the Berlin sprint attendants to fill it out if possible. I would appreciate if you who attended would fill this out and ship it back to Anders Sigfridsson: anders.sigfridsson at ul.ie. (some of you might already have done that - if so please ignore this). Let's be good guinea pigs and help them out ;-) Thanks!

If you plan to attend the sprint we recommend you to listen to the PyPy technical talks (`EuroPython schedule`_) during the conference since it will give you a good overview of the status of development. On the morning of the first sprint day (10th) we will also have a tutorial session for those new to PyPy development. As 3 days is relatively short for a PyPy sprint we suggest to travel back home on the 13th if possible (but it is ok to attend less than 3 days too). ------------------------------ Goals and topics of the sprint ------------------------------ There are many possible and interesting sprint topics to work on - here we list some possible task areas: * try out Python programs and fix them or fix PyPy or fix performance bottlenecks * some JIT improvement work * port the stackless transform to ootypesystem * other interesting stuff that you would like to work on ...;-) ------------ Registration ------------ If you'd like to come, please subscribe to the `pypy-sprint mailing list`_ and drop a note about your interests and post any questions. More organisational information will be sent to that list. Please register by adding yourself on the following list (via svn): http://codespeak.net/svn/pypy/extradoc/sprintinfo/post-ep2008/people.txt or on the pypy-sprint mailing list if you do not yet have check-in rights: http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-sprint --------------------------------------- Preparation (if you feel it is needed): --------------------------------------- * read the `getting-started`_ pages on http://codespeak.net/pypy * for inspiration, overview and technical status you are welcome to read `the technical reports available and other relevant documentation`_ * please direct any technical and/or development oriented questions to pypy-dev at codespeak.net and any sprint organizing/logistical questions to pypy-sprint at codespeak.net * if you need information about the conference, potential hotels, directions etc we recommend to look at http://www.europython.org. We are looking forward to meet you at the Vilnius Post EuroPython PyPy sprint! The PyPy team ..
