[TIP] starting testrun.org for testing in python

[holger krekel]

Hey Eric, 

i take the freedom to re-post to TIP as i find your links and
efforts very worthwhile. 

I just checked with my own and the Pycon schedule and suggest 
an Open Space session related to "CI" testing with Python 

    1:30 AM on saturday. 

fits for you?  (it's really hard to find a slot given the interesting programme) 
If this doesn't work i guess we could see to discuss things
on the obligatory TIP evening-and-pizza mini conference - 
do we already have a date for this, btw? 

cheers,
holger
