Swift Sprint at PyCon 2013

Hosted by SwiftStack and Red Hat

PyCon 2013, March 18 (first sprint day)

The focus is to promote clients writing against the Swift API

Proposed Sprint Topics

• Cross-platform GUI client
• Improve the existing swift client (python-swiftclient)
• Improve swift3
• Add Swift support to boto/s3cmd (this s3cmd?)
• Improve existing user-space tools like swiftly, cloudfuse, etc.
• build a desktop app
• build a website that stores data in swift
  • (maybe get NewsBlur to support Swift in addition to S3)
• build a mobile client for Swift
• Build a dropbox replacement
• Break out into 2 sections: developer tools and client apps?
  • a dev tool would aid those in building swift apps
  • a client app is any app that uses the Swift API
