00:08.10pcmattmanwould my chances at getting a proposal accepted be reduced at all by the fact that i didn't know about SoC until yesterday, and as such haven't been able to talk to the orgs in depth?
00:09.19anothy_xnot directly, anyway. there's still time.
00:09.54ojwbget talking to them as soon as you can
00:09.54anothy_xyou're evaluated (primarily, at least) on the quality of your application (and things like whether the org's interested in the actual idea or not).

00:11.32ojwbthe main factor is that discussing the application with the org and improving it in response to feedback makes a better application
00:11.36*** part/#gsoc srna_pavol (n=pali@a02-0536b.kn.vutbr.cz)
00:11.43ojwbbut if you get on with it, there's still time
00:11.51pcmattmani thought so
00:11.53bitsweatdefinitely, apply soon and get feedback
00:11.55ojwbyou can update applications after april 3rd
00:12.06bitsweatreally? didn't know that
00:12.13bitsweatnot much of a deadline then
00:12.24anothy_xer, didn't someone (lh?) say you couldn't, just a few hours ago?
00:12.24ojwbbut if you submit a blank form just to get in the door, most orgs will just mark it ineligible

00:13.51ojwbit certainly says "mentoring organizations may request further proposal detail from the student applicant"
00:13.58lhanothy_x: what's up?
00:14.09the9a3eedihmm.. does one need anything from the university itself in order to prove that he's a student?
00:14.15bitsweata transcript perhaps?
00:14.30anothy_xah, great. student apps may not be edited, but may be commented on, after the deadline, correct?
00:14.35the9a3eedibitsweat, hmm.. better request for a transcript asap then o_O
00:14.52anothy_x(by the student)
00:15.04bitsweatthe9a3eedi:  check the FAQ first
00:15.53caden|atworki dont' think anything like a transcript ahs to be part of the submission

00:40.26rwcrThe deadline's still four days away, plenty of time for people to procrastinate :-)
00:40.27brlcadcaden|atwork: they're all busy working on applications for BRL-cAD ;)
00:41.18caden|atworkhmmm--- i didn't know htat brlcad was also a person
00:42.00caden|atworkis there a brl-cad gallery i can look at somewhere?
00:42.16caden|atwork3d is not my forte but i like a good rendering
00:42.33brlcadcaden|atwork: you mean like http://brlcad.org/gallery/ ?
00:43.02caden|atworkhah!  exactly like that!
00:43.09brlcadmost of the more interesting stuff is under renderings
00:43.15caden|atworkwell, like the renderings part anyway.... these photographs are too low-tech
00:43.28brlcadneeds to get someone to upgrade that gallery install..
00:43.49caden|atworki've never seen a 3d mandelbrot before
00:43.50caden|atworkthat's wild
00:44.07brlcadit's a sphere flake
00:44.18caden|atworkregressing infinitely?
00:44.27caden|atworknot a mandelbrot
00:44.30caden|atworkstill looks cool thought
00:44.44caden|atworks/ought/ough/
00:44.55ojwbbit of a tank obsession there
00:45.13brlcadyeah, not a mandelbrot, recursively reducing for as many levels as you specify
00:45.38caden|atworkyes.... lots of military hardware... i'll get worried when they start uploading all of the gun renderings

00:47.19caden|atworkhow hard is it to learn this program as an enduser?
00:47.33brlcadcaden|atwork: that's part of the package's heritage -- it's was historically funded by the us govt to model tanks and such to figure out how to make them more safe
00:47.40*** join/#gsoc secureendpoints_ (n=chatzill@cpe-24-193-47-88.nyc.res.rr.com)
00:48.10brlcadcaden|atwork: as hard as any other commercial cad system -- there's a lot you have to know to be productive, steep learning curve, but LOTS of documentation
00:48.16caden|atworkahh
00:48.45brlcadnot the same category as content modelers like blender where they don't focus on engineering/analysis modeling requirements, fidelity, correctness, etc
00:48.54caden|atworkright
00:49.18caden|atworkis it GUI based, with shape manipulation, or do you primarily create data files of points and lines and stuff
00:49.26caden|atworkit has been awhile since i looked at a CAD program
00:49.33caden|atworki looked at 3D studio max like 10 years ago
00:50.02brlcadabout as much overlap as 3D Studio with CATIA (i.e., pretty much no domain overlap other than 'yeah, they both do some form of modeling')
00:50.11caden|atworkhahah
00:50.23caden|atworki demand more renderings
00:50.41caden|atworkthe one that says it took 5 days at the bottom is really nice
00:51.04brlcadit's got a GUI, a very powerful command interface, and lots of utilities developed in a unix-style of making small tools that perform specific tasks
00:51.34brlcadlike convert from geometry format A to B, perform signal processing on this data file, display this image, etc
00:51.55caden|atworkcool
00:51.58brlcadthat's a bit misleading too -- it's a full reallistic light simulation
00:52.57brlcadand every blade of grass and every leaf is actually modeled, and every nut/bolt and wire and interior component is inside the vehicle too
00:53.05caden|atworkwhoa
00:53.14caden|atworkdo you know what year it was when they did that?
00:53.18caden|atworki wonder what the processors were
00:53.29brlcadoh, it's on the image
00:53.38brlcadabout 5 years ago iirc, tiny lil cluster

00:59.29caden|atworki know what little graphics exposure i've had has been more like gaming, opengl type stuff

01:08.06lim123<PROTECTED>
01:08.11brlcadI would easily pick someone who's passionate about coding and learning, about working with our project, that is easy to work with, and that can learn quickly over someone who is just simply a good coder (but lacking in some other regard)
01:08.35brlcadthere are plenty of other orgs like that as well, it's fairly common
01:09.07brlcadmost orgs aren't just looking to get some code out of you for the summer, they want someone interested in getting involved in that community permanently

02:23.54caden|atworki learned about lmgtfy by watching someone use it in this channel, i'd never heard of it before

02:24.46caden|atworkfair enought

03:55.47summatusmentismonkey123: odds are hard to answer
03:55.59ojwblast year there were ~7000 applications from ~3000 students for  1125 places
03:56.01andrecasteloI guess it is harder to be accepted this year
03:56.07ojwb1000 places this  year
03:56.14ojwbwe don't yet know the other figures
03:56.14monkey123isee
03:56.28ojwbbut a lot of those 7000 apps are really poor
03:57.17ojwbif you can find a project which you've suitable skills for and are enthusiastic about, and write a good application for it, you've a pretty good chance I reckon
03:57.31summatusmentisand ultimately, only ~3000 students, they're not gonna accept multiple apps for each student, obviously

04:09.45werdnawhat value of e?
04:10.05Landonwerdna: s/heads and tails/bases and sides/
04:10.25jaseboif two applications are equally good, and one of them has been submitting patches, or chatting to developers on IRC
04:10.32jasebothat second one will have an advantage
04:11.02jaseboojwb: we're very partial :-) We want the best students
04:11.10ojwbmore than that, I'd be hesitant to accept an application if the submitter hadn't interacted
04:11.24ojwbit's hard to mentor someone who won't interact
04:12.31ojwbsome students don't realise this, and need prompting, but if you comment on their application and get no response, it's hard to believe they'll succeed in 3 months time

07:15.49gaurav_hiiiiIn the gsoc webapp for students abstract isn't taking more than 500 chars
07:16.33Ivanovicthis is meant to be an *abstract*, not a whole 20 pages paper

07:16.43Ivanovicso 500 chars should work perfectly
07:16.59smtmsgaurav_hiiii, you should try abstracting some details ;-)
07:17.03Ivanovicthis should not be about you, just about "what do you roughly plan to do"
07:20.12gaurav_hiiiibut last year it was being allowed
07:20.32smtmsgaurav_hiiii, allowed what?
07:20.48werdnaso they decideed it was a good improvement
07:20.51smtmsgaurav_hiiii, why are you concerned about the abstract at all?

08:47.21werdnaSpeaking from experience...
08:47.26LawnGnomesohum: I wouldn't get your hopes up, to be honest. The under 18 contract issue's just as much true here in .au as it is in .us -- that's why a *lot* of companies won't hire under 18s for any vaguely sales related role, as they can't sign contracts.
08:47.46werdnaI turned 18 after I started working for Wikimedia (a US not-for-profit) in Australia
08:48.01werdnathe employment contract was informal until I turned 18.
08:48.15werdnaThey specified tasks, I'd finish them, I'd get a check for however much money.
08:48.35sohumbut you wouldn't have any legal recourse if you didn't, is that it?

I'm asking if I will experiment something similar for the "Contents" section

09:45.21martaok, thanks. What will happens to my previous proposal which Abstract was more than 500 chars ?

11:06.43apaliwalanyways it will be a challenge and good experiance from learning point of view
11:06.45omniterapaliwal, it's BECAUSE you're not used it that this bonding period exists. so you have time to get used to it.
11:07.09apaliwalyah..I agree
11:07.21kblinI'm not sure how coding open source and coding in industry are that closely related
11:07.42kblinthe only closed source project I worked on was a piece of crap, code-wise
11:08.20kblinI mean it did work, but it took me two weaks to make it compile without warnings and stuff
11:08.38kblinand I had to rewrite half of it to make it IPv6-capable

11:51.50ojwbwhich is clearly not going to work...
11:52.15ojwbmore useful than feedback from other students is probably feedback from others in the community

11:53.07kblinwell, if you send the proposal to the project's mailing list and later there's two similar proposals, I guess the person who didn't send it to the mailing list will be in trouble :)

13:29.58apaliwalone doubt....If in an application template  if for some section we don't have any thing to write like say in "further enhancement you can think of" section, then should we leave that section blank or remove that section heading too from the final submitted application
13:31.01z3r0apaliwal: leave it blank without the heading IMHO. Also don't worry about the templates too much, it's kinda flexible as long as you can get yourself across.

14:06.38dgsudharsanhello i am interested to apply for gsoc this year.. I have an idea, a concept related astronomy which when implemented i think will become popular software like google earth, encarta.. Can some one help me out here? Which organisation can i propose?
14:07.13kblinNightrose: ok, seems like this is a known issue, and there's two reasons why proposals might show up in the "ineligible" list. one is if one of the mentors marked it as ineligible, one is that the student withdrew the proposal
14:07.18dwinsdgsudharsan: you might look at KDE (specifically, Marble or KStars from the KDE-Edu project)
14:07.36kblinNightrose: and the bug about it not being accessible is still being worked on
14:07.57kblinencarta is popular?
14:08.04dgsudharsanok but this is entirely a new idea.. So can i propose..
14:08.07Nightrosedgsudharsan: yea definitely have a look at kstars from KDE :)

18:07.57omniterhwed, only for the abstract.
18:08.03rwatsonajuonline: there are advantages to submitting multiple applications -- one is that if you're using the org's "ideas list" there may be a lot of proposals for exactly the same idea you're proposing on
18:08.11omniteryou can't really measure a formatted propsal in characters anyway.
18:08.22omniterthere's bullets and images and crap
18:08.32rwatsonajuonline: and if they plan to accept only one instance of the project, you're competing against a lot of people for just one slot. if you have proposals for different ideas, you're competing for multiple spots (sort of)

20:35.26lhdennda: you get *paid* for the work you do between start and end of coding. if you choose to do more work, e.g. during the community bonding period, you are doing that as volunteer time to your project.
20:35.31summatusmentismaybe chicken of the vnc just sukcs
20:35.32summatusmentissucks*
20:35.33lhjbrockmeier: my pleasure

20:35.47lhdennda: no. i am being very clear for legal reasons.
20:35.57lhyou can write whatever you want whenever you want as long as your mentor is happy with it.

20:36.11Ivanovicdennda: that is: if you do have a really hard schedule due to normal uni stuff and want to start early so that you can spread work over more time, most orgs will probably be happy with it
20:36.21Ivanovicthough officially you started your work in May
20:36.22Ivanovic;)
20:36.25lhyou get *paid* for what you do between may 23 to aug 25th
20:36.31lhyes basically what Ivanovic said.
20:36.40denndawhat's the legal issue here?
20:36.50Ivanovicwe did so at wesnoth last year and yeah, it worked really well for the students
20:36.51denndathe use-case is the one Ivanovic outlined
20:36.57lhdennda: simple, work for hire contract. needs a start date and an end date.
20:36.57dho_plan9summatusmentis: how are you trying to connect

20:37.50dho_plan9you're probably connecting to the wrong port
20:38.05lhdennda: as long as your mentors are ok with that, we are ok with that. we do ask them to submit their evaluations based on progress made during the coding periods, however. so it would not, for example, be ok to code like made during the community bonding period but write no code at all between start of coding at the end of may and the midterm evaluation date

20:39.42lhso mentors who are around for another gsoc - how is application quality looking?
20:40.03Ivanovichmm, most require some work
20:40.06lhso far i am hearing application quality is awesome, # of apps is down, most feel it is due to more stringent application requirements (self-imposed by orgs) than in previous years
20:40.10dho_plan9lh: There's no spam this year, at least.
20:40.11Ivanovicthat is: the ones submitted to google so far
20:40.13schumamlcomparable to last year
20:40.21lhdho_plan9: that's what i thought.
20:40.22summatusmentisdho_plan9: thanks
20:40.29thiago_homeless apps than last year for us too
20:40.32lhschumaml: ok good to know
20:40.42Ivanovicmany of our perfectionists have not submitted so far, but we are sure that their proposals will be about as good as they can get...
20:40.54ArthurLiuremarkably low amount of spam and unworkable apps, I'd say 60% of our applications we'd like to pursue
20:41.06dho_plan9lh: I've solicited a bunch of students and those I've gotten to apply are doing rather well on their applications.

20:42.56armalh: # of apps is definitely down for us. we have 12 now. but a handful look quite good. if it's like last year, i expect 20-30 more apps in the next few days.
20:43.14Ivanovicso far we got one "probably spam" application, will mark it ineligable soon, since there was no further comment
20:43.15spectiearma, of people who have been in contact
20:43.17spectieor cold apps ?
20:43.24ArthurLiuhaving more admins with more time definitely helped drive up the conversation with students

20:43.38Ivanovicbeside this we had 14 proposals of varying quality submitted, several rather shallow, several really good
20:43.54dho_plan9Communication this year is a lot better.

22:08.55ThomasWaldmannpity that ubuntu left
22:09.12summatusmentisThomasWaldmann: you're not the first person to express those sentiments :)
22:09.19warrenlh: I told them "show your leadership by starting the suggested research and prototyping and posting your results to the list", and the students are in competition to be the chosen student.
22:09.47warrenlh: so normally students file applications that they write themselves that are the proposals?

22:10.19warren"ubuntu left"?
22:10.31summatusmentisUbuntu applied, and then withhdrew

22:10.34socinfo"ubuntu" is Ubuntu had applied and was accepted, but they have subsequently chosen not to participate in GSoC 2009

22:10.48warrenlh: ah, thanks.
22:11.08lhi think what you are doing now works, but make sure all of them file their proposals in the web application. it should be made clear that only one will possibly be selected
22:11.34warrenlh: ok

22:13.55warrenIf you want something in Ubuntu, put it in Fedora...
22:14.02ThomasWaldmannsummatusmentis: well, if students were interested in ubuntu, they maybe apply to debian now, making it more popular. and more popular means more slots, right? (assuming there are enough mentors)

22:36.33Arcive never seen so few applications
22:36.50ArcIIRC in 2007 we had 20 apps in the first 24 hours
22:37.08ThomasWaldmannmaybe it depends a bit on the given ideas
22:37.40ThomasWaldmannmoin tried to not give ideas too verbosely, so you could not just c&p the stuff into a proposal
22:38.01freebsd-brooksArc: we're in a pretty similar postion at freebsd
22:38.13Arcfreebsd-brooks: good but sorry to hear
22:38.19ThomasWaldmannthat likely means we get less, but better apps, because people really have to think about and investigate stuff before writing their proposal.
22:38.40Arcive been somewhat afraid that encouraging students to talk to a mentor before submitting is what's caused the much lower application rate
22:39.05anothy_xthe interesting thing i've seen, though, is that in 2007, by this time we had maybe 3.5x the number of apps, but a good 20% were spam and an additional 10% were simply really, really poor quality.
22:39.05freebsd-brooksit's 80-90% good apps, but still seems odd
22:39.15anothy_xi've seen no spam apps so far, only one really poor quality one.
