SciPy Mentored Sprints (David) - Tania Allard#
they are doing these springs at pycon
https://mentored-sprints.netlify.app/
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGUHyP8ki_Q
could we use pyopensci maintainers to participate in the mentored sprints?
Have them bring friends who can contribute to the sprints?
maintainers would need to identify things to fix
Then they would come to the sprint
Do they have to register for scipy?
sprints are run in discord
git help desk
maintainers volunteer time to
find issues ahead of time
work with people who want to submit PRs
ask them to do things that aren’t code contributions like run through a tutorial and raise issues, etc.
Open science labs - they do hae training materials already in (spanish?)
Challenges with mentored sprints
getting envt setup
knowing what issue to work on
Outcomes#
we will go to scipy and SPY
ducky app for video chat?!
