Meeting 04/09/2010

When

• 4th of September, 2010. Starting at 10:00am.
• ​Google Calendar entry

What

Port Genshi to Python 3.

Where

Yola offices, 35 Hope Street ​map link. (Google Maps still thinks WebAfrica lives there.)

If you can't be present in person you can join us on the #ctpug channel on the ​Atrum IRC network. Some of us will also likely be present on #python-genshi on the Freenode IRC network.

Notes

• Simon Cross will apply to the PSF for fundng
  • Money to be spent on beer, pizzas, coffee and some memorabilia (coffee mugs currently the odds-on favourite).
• We are unlikely to finish in a single sprint - Current plan is to work on some issues during the week after the sprint and have another session on the 11th.
  • Plan is to ignore C accelerator for the first pass, and port it if time allows
  • Aim for a single code-base, otherwise distribute and 2to3 solution if single code-base gets too complicated
• Expected number of attendees: 6-10

Preparation

• Porting discussion started on Genshi mailing list ​link.
  • No objections raised so far.
  • Jeroen (one of the Genshi committers) has offered to help get our code into Genshi svn when we're done (either as a branch or in trunk as appropriate).
• Application for PSF funding successful.
• Announcement submitted to Python Sprints (​link).
• Mugs designed and sent to printers.
• Mugs collected.
• Hg repository set up at ​http://bitbucket.org/hodgestar/genshi-py3k.
