well, from a conference point of view, if you want to sprint before EP,
then arrive the 3rd of june, and if you want to sprint after then
leave sunday the 13th of june.  doing both is also possible.

For your courage, you are now nominated thecontact person for
what I am calling 'the learning python sprint'.  Very cool, welcome aboard.
We need to get you a sprint coach.  For this topic, the problem will
be that we have too many volunteers -- I already know that Alex Martelli
wants to do this, but he also wants to hack in the pypy sprint, so ...
at any rate, this will not be a problem.


Ok, now we get to self-organise.  I cannot find the wiki page for
sprints, but we should have one someplace.  we now need more people
who are interested in this sprint, and some goals of what you want to
accomplish.  Then we just go off and do this.  It's fun.

Ok Didier, what do you want to do?
