     5We'll be there at 9am both days to open the doors.  It's a tradition to go out for drinks after the sprinting winds down, perhaps around 4 or 5, but this may be earlier or later depending on the general momentum of the sprint.

     7This will be a general sprint focused on getting features ready for the 1.2 release.  It doesn't require any previous experience and, if you don't have prior experience [http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/ contributing to Django], it is the perfect opportunity to start.
