FOSS4G 2010 Code Sprint

== Organizing Contacts ==
*Wladimir Szczerban, Enric Rodellas
== 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...
