Django sprint in Los Angeles (Santa Monica), CA, February 6-7 2010
Mahalo.com will be hosting a Django sprint on the weekend of February 6th and 7th, in beautiful and sunny southern California.
We'll get started at 9:30am both mornings and wrap up around 4 or 5. We're located pretty close to the Santa Monica Promenade and the Pier, so expect post-coding activities and beer.
According to the Django 1.2 roadmap, the beta release is due out on January 26th, so this sprint will largely be focused on cleaning up bugs to make 1.2 as clean as possible. That said, if you want to do feature work, 1.3 will be on its way soon so we won't discourage people who are interested in working on new features for the 1.3 release.
Sprints are a great place to start contributing to the Django project, no previous experience is necessary. Just show up.
