There is going to be a pygame sprint at this years pyconuk . We're going to tackle whatever the participants who turn up want to hack on. That might be porting to a new platform like the $25 rasberrypi computer(there's going to be a couple at pyconuk), or improving the pygame android support. Or it might be polishing off one of the new modules like the new freetype font module, or perhaps implementing a brand new module.  Or maybe it's jazzing up the documentation, or working on a new import pygame.examples. I'm getting there on Friday, so I hope to do some hacking then, and we might be able to get some sprint space for the Friday(conference propper starts Saturday, but some people are getting there early) - otherwise it will have to be in a cafe or something. Also going on during the conference is the python core sprint and CKAN sprint.  It should be fun to join in on those sprints too.  Of course there will be talks, work shops, an unconference room,...

'PyCon UK 2009 will be held on Saturday 5th September at the CBSO Centre, Birmingham. Pycon UK 2009 is an UnConference. This means that the delegates arrange the schedule on the day. There's no submission process, and no schedule. You turn up with whatever material you wish to present, you choose which talks are given and which workshops are held on the day.' It's only £10 if you pre-book. http://pyconuk.org/booking.html . If you're planning on going, please pre-book now, so the organisers have a better idea of numbers. More information can be found about the unconference at the website: http://www.pyconuk.org/
