There's a #matplotlib chanel on irc, where a dozen people hang out. That
could be a nice place to gather people during the sprint.

I'll also try to set up some sort of remote communication tool (such as 
Google Hangouts, or even just IRC) so that people can "participate" in 
the sprint remotely.

Agreed.  That's definitely on my todo list.  We've got some funding 
through my employer to pay for continuous integration hosting -- it's 
just taking a while to work its way through the system.  Once we have 
some sort of paid hosting system, we should be able to do a lot more 
than Travis currently can.

Being in Europe, it is very unlikely I'll come to Scipy this year, but I
think it is a great idea to organize a sprint during this period.

One of the things I think would be great to tackle is the replacement of
the Travis bot. Ideally, I'd like to see a pep8 check of each patch and a
daily build of the documentation on master in addition of the tests.

I'm hoping to host a matplotlib sprint during the final two days of 
Scipy 2013 this year, and I hope to see as many as possible of you 
there.  I think it's also really important to bring new developers into 
sprints, because it's such an efficient way to get people familiar with 
the code base.

It might be helpful to start brainstorming now about which projects we 
may want to tackle so that we can have as much in place as possible by 
then and hit the ground running.

I've set up a wiki page here:
