[Pandas-dev] Pandas dev sprint June 27-30 @ Nashville

[Joris Van den Bossche]

You are certainly welcome to sprint those days as well. I only can't
promise that we can do any things to improve remote participation such as
video meetings (but there should be a bunch of core devs active, which
might give faster feedback on PRs if needed).

I think there is still certainly interest in such a function (I have
regularly needed something like that myself).

That reminds me: it might be good to mention the pandas-redshift packages
somewhere in the docs (in the ecosystem page or in the sql docs).
