[pytest-dev] pytest sprint 2016 / getting started

[Raphael Pierzina]

Hi,

I love the idea!

Although I would happily attend the sprint, I don’t know if I will be able to make it.
I relocated to Edinburgh, UK this month and joined a new company.

Hope to get back to you with good news in a bit.

Cheers
Raphael
