A code sprint is usually organized by a group that is using an open source project and wants to see something done. They fly the developers to a single location and feed them for a couple of days with the necessities of the hacking life (internet, caffeine, electricity). The communication that happens from face to face hacking usually lasts the project for a year or more. You see this a lot in projects like Drupal etc...

We are going to to do a cross project code sprint (with GeoServer and uDig developers) focused on changing the internals over to the new Feature model. If we run across any old Filter code we will take care of it as well. The "old" Feature interface will still be available for client code to use - this sprint is just focused on updating (and testing the heck out of) our internals.

We need *good* code examples of how to do the following before we start: Use SimpleFeatureTypeBuilder, use SimpleFeatureBuilder. It may also help to have a big old class diagram of the Feature model.
+
=== Attending ===
  
−
We expect each developer to have a working build of trunk, have read the interfaces for SimpleFeature and the above code examples.

−
There are lots of things that are going to have to follow out of scope for this sprint. I am going to bring attention to the following explicitly. *Performance* (the implementation of SimpleFeature available here is for the transition period only - optimize on your own time after we have updated the codebase to handle it). *Javadocs* - much of the javadocs will be out of date by the time we are done, type a sentence and move on.

* Renderer Optimizations
 
−
** consider attributing geometry components with a minResolution below which the renderer doesn't deal with them
 
−
** clipping - svg supports clipping, we need to consider clipping or another method of dealing with geometries that extend beyond the renderer bounds
 
−
** add <canvas> renderer

Back to FOSS4G2008...

Date and Organizing Contacts

Date: Saturday 4 October 2008 We have decided to do this on the Saturday so 'sprinters' don't miss any workshops or socialising during the week.

Venue: Cape Town City Council offices

Organising Contact: Tim Sutton

Contact Email: tim@linfiniti.com

Procedure

Read the sections below which provide some background. If you would like to hold a code sprint, add your name (as coordinator) and project name below, then create a detailed project sprint section below. The project sprint section should include some or all of the following details:

  • Attending - a list of people who plan to attend
  • Goals - a brief list of the things you hope to achieve and plan to work on during your sprint session
  • Preparation (optional) - a list of items that should be taken care of before the code sprint so that the appropriate groundwork is in place
  • Out of scope (optional) - items that will not be in scope for the sprint session

If you are planning to attend the code sprint, please add your name to the relevant project sprint section below.

All sprint attendees it will be a good idea to subscribe to this page by ticking the 'watch this page' box at the bottom of the page so that you can be updated if there are any changes in arrangements.

Interested to organize a code sprint

  • Markus Neteler: GRASS GIS
  • Andrea Antonello: JGrass / uDig

Code Sprint - what's that?

A code sprint is usually organized by a group that is using an open source project and wants to see something done. They fly the developers to a single location and feed them for a couple of days with the necessities of the hacking life (internet, caffeine, electricity). The communication that happens from face to face hacking usually lasts the project for a year or more. You see this a lot in projects like Drupal etc...

Rooms

One or more of these rooms will be used for the code sprint depending on turn out.

Motivation and Direction
