+DEADLINE: 31st September 2005 (friday)
+
+Title: PyPy - agility through diversity
+
+Subtitle: Sprint driven development in an Open Source Python project - funded
+ by the European Commission (FP6)
+
+Section: Hackerethik
+
+Talkers: Holger Krekel, Beatrice Düring
+
+Abstract (max 250 letters):
+
+ We´ll present the experiences from managing an agile and distributed OSS
+ development process in the Pypy project, "sprint driven", during the last year
+ and also connect this to the challenges of integrating this process with the requirements
+ from the European Commission who is partly funding the project through the
+ 6th Research Framework programme.
+ We will also reflect on the aspect of diversity, combining technical
+ and non technical people and skills in the PyPy project and learnings
+ from this.
+
+ PyPy is a reimplementation of Python written in Python
+ itself, flexible and easy to experiment with.
+
+Description (250-500 words):
+
+ We are going to briefly describe the organisation of the project,
+ showing how formal stakeholders and OSS Python community interact
+ through agile practices like sprinting.
+
+ We will relate the various agile techniques used in PyPy to the
+ agile practices known from the work in the Agile Alliance (XP, Scrum,
+ Crystal Clear) and show how the PyPy project is developing an ongoing
+ customization of several of the known practices.
+
+ Lastly we will also share our experience of various challenges and
+ possibilities when integrating the different cultures and skills from
+ the OSS perspective, EU perspective and the Chaos Pilot/process management
+ perspective - managing diversities.
+
+ PyPy is a reimplementation of Python written in Python
+ itself, flexible and easy to experiment with. Our
+ long-term goals are to target a large variety of
+ platforms, small and large, by providing a compiler
+ toolsuite that can produce custom Python versions.
+ Platform, Memory and Threading models will become
+ aspects of the translation process - as opposed to
+ encoding low level details into a language implementation
+ itself.
