Можно участвовать он-лайн.
Для тех, кто не в курсе, спринт - это период времени(тут 1-2 дня), за
который участники будут активно работать над улучшением проекта: исправлять
баги, добавлять новые фичи, тестировать исправления и т.п.
Join us for a worldwide sprint
http://www.djangoproject.com/weblog/2007/sep/06/sprint/
On Friday, Sept. 14, 2007, we're going to hold a worldwide Django sprint
– an excuse for people to focus their undivided attention for a full
day (or two) on improving Django.
We've got a bunch of features that are almost done but haven't yet been
committed/merged – including newforms-admin, ORM aggregate support,
multi-DB support and GeoDjango. Plus, we've got almost 1,000 open
tickets in our ticket system. We plan to devote at least 24 hours of
focused work to get some of this done in an organized fashion, and also
to encourage new people to contribute. If all goes well on Friday, we'll
probably continue to Saturday.
Anybody can participate and contribute, and there's no obligation or
expectation. If you've never contributed to Django before, this is the
perfect chance for you to chip in.
More information is on the wiki page.
Most participants will likely be working from their own homes/offices in
their respective countries, but a few of us in the U.S.A. will be
meeting in person for more effective communication and momentum. We have
tentative plans to congregate at the Google offices in Chicago and the
main Google headquarters in Mountain View, California – but in order
for those plans to be firmed up, we need to provide a realistic
headcount to the Google folks. Hence, if you're available to sprint and
want to join us in person from either Chicago or Mountain View, please
let me know as soon as you can.
All participants – not just those meeting in person – are encouraged
to add their names to the wiki page.
