Sorry for dropping in "just in time"... I'll join the Stackless
sprint team for a variety of reasons, the most prominent ones
being:

- Python needs better support for low-level parallelism
- Stackless needs more developpers (docs, tools, demos)
- Stackless needs more mindshare (docs, articles, etc)
- Christian needs more helping hands
- I need a better understanding of Stackless
- it is high time for the Sprint to happen
- it's around my corner, too ;-)

So far, I've been barely getting my feet wet with Stackless,
compiling it on OS X and playing with the demos, but I'd love
to help with developping more demos and tests and pulling infor-
mation out of the core developpers that might end up in some
kind of documentation and articles to increase the Stackless
mindshare. Eventually, I'd like to use Stackless more tightly
combined with PyObjC on OS X.

Expectations, well... I hope I'll gain a better understanding
at the sprint of the internals and concepts of Stackless and a
variety of use cases for it - ideally to a degree that I can
develop my own demos illustrating Stackless features and write
articles about it, which is a way of repeating and deepening
what I've learned.

See you soon...
