+Details
+After the success of #pandasSprint, with around 500 participants, and almost 200 pull requests sent, we're back to our regular sprints. 
+For the ones who missed it, you can get an idea on how it was checking this feed:

+
+For this sprint, beginners will be able to work on small fixes, to learn how to make an open source contribution.
+While more experienced participants will be able to choose more challenging tasks.
+
+To get most out of the sprint, it is recommended to try to set up the environment before the meetup.
+And remember to being your own computer:

+Thanks once again to Harvey Nash and Hamish for hosting our sprint.
+And remember that if you need a new job, Hamish is the only recruiter in London who "speaks" Python: [https://www.linkedin.com/in/hamishpitkeathly/](https://www.linkedin.com/in/hamishpitkeathly/)
