Perl 5.24 transition planning/packaging etc
- set up new experimental builder in a repeatable way
- perl-modules dependency MBF
- process rebuilds
perl core LHF?
Patch management
Anything specific for stretch?
autopkgtest improvements
cross building XS modules (ntyni)
fix or work around known nondeterministic test failures
next mass-commit for some s/http/https/g (debian/copyright, debian/upstream/metadata); cf. duck
libtest-simple-perl: mass-rebuild if not yet in unstable?
tools:
- dh-make-perl: bugs/patches/TODO file
- pkg-perl-tool: the same; e.g. dpt-forward{,bug,patch} merge and github pull requests
- "mr up" / "mr checkout": Generates debian/upstream/metadata if possible and non-existent and that way prohibits the next "mr up", since "gbp pull" refuses to work on unclean working directories.

This is the estimate budget for the sprint.

4 people need accommodation for up to 4 nights at 60..100€ per night (960..1600€).
- Apartment for 4 booked: CHF862 for 3 nights =~ 780€
Plus travel expenses for 4 people (538..778€).
TOTAL = 1498..2378€
