Open Stack

Hi,

I will organize a sprint to Port OpenStack to Python 3 during 4 days at Montreal (Canada) during Pycon Montreal 2014, between April, 14 (Monday) and April, 17 (Thursday).

The goal of the sprint is to port OpenStack components and OpenStack dependencies to Python 3, send patches to port as much code as possible. If you don't know OpenStack, you may focus more on OpenStack dependencies (MySQL-python, python-ldap,  websockify, ...). This is also a good opportunity to try to replace eventlet with trollius (asyncio)! Wiki page of the sprint:

I'm writing to openstack-dev to:

 * know if you are interested to join the sprint
 * know which OpenStack components are most interested to receive and *review* Python 3 patches during the sprint
 * know which OpenStack components are interested to replace eventlet with trollius for the Juno release, or at least have an optional support of trollius
 * more generally, get your feedback :-)

I know that the sprint doesn't fit well with the Icehouse release (scheduled at the last day of the sprint!). I hope that patches can be reviewed during the sprint, so developers can update them if needed during the sprint. I guess that it's fine if patches are only merged after the sprint.
