Raniere,

Thanks for the update. That all sounds great.

Ondrej and Aaron are the main SymPy admins and I admin for PyDy which
handles some sub-packages of SymPy (wrt to GSoC).

I'm happy to meet. I can do Thursday 10 am EST but would prefer an hour or
two later. I think Ondrej is in MTZ and Aaron CTZ.

Are there others that should be there? I see you have Spyder listed in you
README currently.
