[matplotlib-devel] Bloomberg Open source sprint, London, November 29-30 2014

[Phil E. <pel...@gm...>]

There will be an open source Python sprint, hosted by Bloomberg, this
weekend in London. The event will be attended by core developers of many of
the major scientific Python packages (IPython, numpy, scipy, pandas,
scikit-learn) who will act as mentors to those who would like to get
involved in the development of these important scientific tools.

I will be attending as a mentor for matplotlib (if there are any other core
developers who may be able to attend, the more the merrier!) and am hoping
there will be many attendees who want to get a helping hand getting started
with matplotlib development. We've got lots of room for improvement, from
the obvious documentation enhancements right through to the nitty-gritty of
improving backends such as nbagg.

If you want to come along to the event, please sign-up at

Hope you see some of you there,

Phil
