Other contributors and experienced newcomers are invited to join as well
59-
but please send a mail to the pytest-dev mailing list if you intend to
60-
do so somewhat soon, also how much funding you need if so. And if you
61-
are working for a company and using pytest heavily you are welcome to
62-
join and we encourage your company to provide some funding for the
63-
sprint. They may see it, and rightfully so, as a very cheap and deep
64-
training which brings you together with the experts in the field :)

Over 20 participants took part from 4 continents, including employees
39+
from Splunk, Personalkollen, Cobe.io, FanDuel and Dolby. Some newcomers
40+
mixed with developers who have worked on pytest since its beginning, and
41+
of course everyone in between.

We might adjust according to weather to make sure that if
80-
we do some hiking or excursion we'll have good weather.
81-
Freiburg is one of the sunniest places in Germany so
82-
it shouldn't be too much of a constraint.

The Indiegogo campaign asks for 11000 USD which should cover
96-
the costs for flights and accomodation, renting a sprint place
97-
and maybe a bit of food as well.

If your organisation wants to support the sprint but prefers
100-
to give money according to an invoice, get in contact with
101-
holger at http://merlinux.eu who can invoice your organisation
102-
properly.

The Indiegogo campaign aimed for 11000 USD and in the end raised over
61+
12000, to reimburse travel costs, pay for a sprint venue and catering.
