Developer Sprint

[Pierre Stirnweiss]

I won't be able to fill in the doodle until the 10th of January. I am
already on holiday and will go back to work on the 10th. I don't have access
to my calendar. If organisation can't wait untill then, then i'll just pray
that the chosen date is not conflicting with anything.
