I had confirmation that we can indeed have a room to sprint if we want. However, there wouldn't much point in setting this up if I'm the only one attending.
So, is anybody going to Euroscipy? It's a friendly conference, a good way to keep in touch with the latest developments in the wider Scientific Python ecosystem, and it's cheap (only 50€ for students). You need to register quickly though, as early bird rates end this week-end.
