Worldwide Django sprint - September 14

A worldwide Django sprint has been announced. "On Friday, Sept. 14, 2007, we're going to hold a worldwide Django sprint -- an excuse for people to focus their undivided attention for a full day (or two) on improving Django. We've got a bunch of features that are almost done but haven't yet been committed/merged -- including newforms-admin, ORM aggregate support, multi-DB support and GeoDjango. Plus, we've got almost 1,000 open tickets in our ticket system. We plan to devote at least 24 hours of focused work to get some of this done in an organized fashion, and also to encourage new people to contribute. If all goes well on Friday, we'll probably continue to Saturday."

Worldwide Django sprint - September 14

"Worldwide sprint" is a bit of a contradiction in terms: the term
"sprint" is used to describe intense, high-bandwidth, face-to-face
collaboration. This event is what most projects would call a "bug day."
