I hadn't recalled seeing you post here, so I wasn't sure if you were on the
list too).
Hey, who's going to flock[1]_? I'm thinking of adding a hackfest for discussing
a new version of the Python Guidelines if we have the right people. I've
got the following list of things that could be discussed if the right people
are there:
* New methods of building packages (wheels) [ncoghlan, toshio, bkabrda]
- What are the steps to building with wheels
- What new packages are needed
- To macroize or not to macroize
* python3
- Long standing bug about the use of py3dir [thm, dmalcolm, toshio]
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=563622
- Naming of python modules [tomspur, mrunge?, toshio]
- More fluid definition of "python" (ie, it could be python3) [tomspur]
- Switching to it as "default" (what that means and what we can/should do
to move it forward)
+ python-modernize, six, other packages that will help
+ What packages block doing that
+ Perhaps this could be similar to the Ubuntu definition: the livecd
and programs on it should use the python3 runtime.
* alternate interpreters (pypy seems to be the most compatible and therefore
the one we might be most interested in but jython is also in fedora)
[tomspur, toshio, bkabrda, pypy: (dmalcolm, mstuchli), jython: (akurtakov, tradej)]
- Do we want to share modules between interpreters? The cpython2 and pypy
interpreters support nearly the same things. The ruby interpreter
precedent is to share the modules. But we do have compiled bytecode in
python whereas ruby does not. So we'd share .py files but still need
separate .pyc files.
On the pre-registration list I currently see: mrunge, ncoghlan, toshio.
This seems tantalyzingly close to enough people to work on at least one of
the areas above. Anyone else coming?
Anyone else have things they want discussed (and will you be there to kick
off the conversation?)

My attendance is technically a "likely, but not certain" at this point
(if my talk submission gets accepted, I'll definitely be there,
otherwise I may have to work a little harder to convince my boss that
it's a good use of my time).

I want to talk to the Fedora QA folks about Beaker (including the
in-development autotest integration), but that's less relevant to most
of the folks on *this* list :)
Cheers,
Nick.

My attendance is technically a "likely, but not certain" at this point (if
my talk submission gets accepted, I'll definitely be there, otherwise I may
have to work a little harder to convince my boss that it's a good use of my
time).
I've submitted the proposal:
#74 on http://flock-lmacken.rhcloud.com/proposals
But holding it depends on who is present. If Nick's talk is accepted
it might still make sense to hold an IRC-based hackfest, though, since
we'll have far fewer timezones to deal with. (If I'm remembering
where people are roughly located, Nick and I being in the US EST
timezone would clear out everyone from AUS to the western half of the
US.)

Hopefully I will be able to attend. I submitted one sphinx workshop
[#76] and a talk on darkserver project.

Just a note:
bkabrbda and dmalcolm are both unable to attend flock in person due to
other commitments at home. bkabrda should be able to attend via IRC
if we decide to do that. (I think dmalcolm could as well but I didn't
ask him specifically).
