Instructions for the sprint (source: Helsinki PyLadies):
* read the quick start and get a clone of CPython: https://docs.python.org/devguide/
* read the slides: http://wolfprojects.altervista.org/talks/development-process-of-python/
* find a bug that looks interesting to you at: http://bugs.python.org/
* easy issues list: http://bit.ly/1nd4xaC (some have patches)
* try the "random issue" link in the sidebar: http://bugs.python.org/issue?@action=random
* if you want to work on the infrastructure (e.g. the bug tracker itself) ask Ezio
* feel free to work in pairs or small groups
* testing/reviewing/updating existing patches is also very useful (especially old ones)
