September 2007 Django sprint

On Friday, Sept. 14, 2007, we're going to have a sprint to try and reduce the open ticket count. See the ​original announcement to django-dev for some details.

Developers around the world, both new and experienced, have already expressed much interest in participating, so there should be people available to help in most time zones.

To do

Between now and next Friday (or on the day), we need to

• Create an IRC channel for the event.
• Write up a list of things that newcomers can do, particularly how to help triaging bugs.
• Work out a way to easily pass "possibly ready" bugs to people with commit privileges.
