EuroPython 2019 - talks & sprints

[sumanah (Sumana Harihareswara)]

I won’t be at EuroPython 2019 (8-14 July in Basel, Switzerland) but I noticed there’ll be sprints. Anyone want to lead a packaging sprint?

Several talks will discuss packaging:

• “Publish a (Perfect) Python Package on PyPI” by Mark Smith
• “From Python script to Open Source Project” by Michał Karzyński
• “Evolving a helper script into a 180,000-lines-of-Python-code project” (includes discussion of publishing on PyPI) by Mikhail Bushkov and Max Vogler
• “Zen of Python Dependency Management” on PEP 518 and pyproject.toml by Justin Mayer
• “status quo of virtual environments: Learn what’s the difference between venv and virtualenv” by @bernatgabor

And a helpdesk session: “Open Source projects automation” by @webknjaz. (Sorry for missing that distinction earlier!)

Mine isn’t a talk but and a helpdesk session. But I’m happy to chat regardless

[webknjaz (🇺🇦 Sviatoslav Sydorenko (read: /sʋʲɑtɔˈslɑw/))]

Not sure about leading the sprint myself but I’ll think about joining.

[bernatgabor (Bernát Gábor)]

I’ll not be able to participate in the sprints this time. so I’ll need to defer

I’ll be coordinating the CPython sprints (possibly solo, at least nobody else has confirmed), so I can also be the feet on the ground for PyPA too.

It would be great to have some remote helpers for merging PRs though, as I may not even get a laptop out myself (based on last year’s sprints). Plus I have no authority over any PyPA projects

I will also be at the sprints and available to help with the CPython sprints. Potentially setuptools as well if someone wants to work on it.

I’ll be available online and for PR reviews. If need be, we can also chat over #pypa-dev.

Just sending a message containing my username, on that channel, should send me a phone notification.

[dustin (Dustin Ingram)]

I’ll be there. I don’t think I’ll have the bandwidth to lead a packaging sprint, but I can assist and review/merge PRs.

[webknjaz (🇺🇦 Sviatoslav Sydorenko (read: /sʋʲɑtɔˈslɑw/))]

I’ll probably try working more on Official GitHub Action for publishing to PyPI

Looks like smbd will be running a packaging Open Space today…
