As we are getting ready to host the GNOME Python Hackfest I would like to take this time to thank our sponsors. Thanks goes out to The GNOME Foundation for sponsoring Tomeu’s travel; One Laptop Per Child for giving us a place to hold the hackfest; to Canonical for supplying coffee and some snacks to keep us awake; and to Red Hat for sponsoring a dinner for us hungry, hungry, hackers.
I will also be personally sponsoring tickets to a concert featuring Carbon Leaf and local act Tim Blane. I’m actually in it for Tim Blane who’s latest EP Traces is available for free in Vorbis and Flac formats. Yay for free music in free formats!

I hope some documentation issues will be worked out on this summit as of right now (in F12) the documentation on some modules is completely missing and the code is compiled .so so it is hard for a new guy with python skills to just dive in Gnome / GTK programming.
Otherwise great thing gnome has all those bindings in python it makes it so much easier to program in Gnome environment. However some packages are shipped without the binding (rhythmbox being one example) which is shame for Fedora:)
