Tom thought it'd be a good idea to write down what we were up to at the PIKtipi sprint (2nd to 7th of June), so here's my wrap-up:

PIKtipi was my third Plone sprint so far in 2007. I had an excellent, and productive time, thanks to all organizers. Here's what I did:

• Develop further plone.memoize and make use of it in the portlets implementation of Plone 3. Together with Hanno, we were able to speed up Plone for anonymous users by about 50%, and for logged in users by about a third. Stefan helped me implement the memcached support.
• Fix some bugs for the 3.0 release of Plone. By the way, if you're one of the 145 Plone providers earning money with Plone, you should consider helping out. Plone 3 will have loads of new features, but that also means that the bugtracker needs increased attention to get all these features stable.
• Have a fun time with fellow Plone developers, and attend the DZUG conference that was running in parallel.
• In Berlin, run into a 3 hour DJ set by Ellen Allien by accident. Thanks to Siebo and Saskia for their great company. :-)
