Chris so far we have a single day with the facilities, and this will be at the end of the conference so I expect everyone to be tired.
I think the real goal here is to allow the developers time to interact with the public at large (last time we tended to hid in corners and code). > I think it could make good sense to have geotools/geoserver/udig all > sprinting in the same place.

It is going to be tough call; can I actually have a conference call with one of your non-geo TOPP people about sprints (more information would be nice). So far the things I like are cross project: - Take the Feature model and update GeoTools / uDig / GeoServer - Sit down with the other OSGeo projects and work on metadata interchange > I'm planning on having all of TOPP out at the conference, and can > definitely have us all come early or stick around after to work away. > If there's a good space out there we could all get that would be great. If you feel strongly about the 3 days mark I can ask if the Refractions office could be available for the weekend, but it would be something arranged outside of the bounds of the formal OSGeo sponsored sprint.
