Many thanks to all the attendees for a fun OpenHatch sprint. As announced on OH-Dev, we met up at the new Metreon in San Francisco, CA.

Here’s a quick summary of what we were up to:

• Karen Rustad began the process of converting our CSS to use less, a CSS wrapper that lets us use named constants and other niceties that make design work more enjoyable. (This is published on a branch, awaiting work to make sure it gets a production mode.)
• New contributor Roan Kattouw worked on improving GitMediawiki, a Perl-based tool to let us use git to push/pull from the OpenHatch wiki. Wiki spam is still a small problem for us, and I think interacting with the wiki over git will make cleaning up the spam easier. (This work is nearly done; it works against a local wiki on Roan’s dev machine, but has some small snag against the main OpenHatch wiki.) It also led to Roan submitting a patch to MediaWiki to improve its API.
• Daniel Mizyrycki continued to work on moving our documentation from the wiki into Sphinx. He also investigated documenting our new, Github-based workflow.
• Remote sprinter Shawn Landden landed his first commits, fixing links in our documentation and cleaning up some text in the tar training mission. (This work is committed and deployed!)
• First-time committer Mark Holmquist came to the sprint and fixed UI problems via CSS and Javascript contributions. (This work is committed and deployed!)
• Nathan Yergler continued work on a refactoring of the training missions, including documenting how to write a training mission. This is will be ready to land as soon as some test failures are fixed.
• Asheesh fixed a bug that was breaking the Subversion training mission and mentored people through their contributions. (The code work here is pushed and deployed! Reviewed by Shawn.)
• Berry Phillips begun moving the tests for oh-bugimporters out of the oh-mainline repo, starting with the tests for the Trac bug importers. This separates concerns more effectively and paves the way for it to be way easier to add new types of bug importers. (This is awaiting a review, but is expected to be pushed and deployed shortly.)
• Grant Bowman from Partimus also stopped by (sadly, not during the time we took the group photo) and provided his feedback on the site’s user experience. Major thanks to Grant for this review.

Thanks to all who attended! Special thanks to the Python Software Foundation for sponsoring the sprint, and to Cortland Setlow for taking the group picture!
