I haven't yet decided what PyCon sprint to participate in this year. My first choice would be to do something with Storm but I don't know if anyone else will be interested. I could lead a sprint on enhancing the MS SQL backend for Storm, though some of the interested parties (Vernon and Sidnei) have indicated they won't be present. Regardless we could make some progress on that front if anyone else is interested. I can think of quite a few tasks and issues that need to be resolved. Other ideas: * Add backend-specific modules to Storm to allow persisting Storm objects to files which then can be bulk inserted into a db. (Requires db introspection so has to be db-specific) * Adding more clear error messages Variable classes (to indicate which table/column the error comes from) * Perfomance tuning (this seems like a need but I don't know C so I could only work on the Python portions)
