00:09.54 | ojwb | get talking to them as soon as you can |

00:42.00 | caden|atwork | is there a brl-cad gallery i can look at somewhere? |
00:42.16 | caden|atwork | 3d is not my forte but i like a good rendering |
00:42.33 | brlcad | caden|atwork: you mean like http://brlcad.org/gallery/ ? |
00:43.02 | caden|atwork | hah! exactly like that! |
00:43.09 | brlcad | most of the more interesting stuff is under renderings |
00:43.15 | caden|atwork | well, like the renderings part anyway.... these photographs are too low-tech |
00:43.28 | brlcad | needs to get someone to upgrade that gallery install.. |
00:43.49 | caden|atwork | i've never seen a 3d mandelbrot before |
00:43.50 | caden|atwork | that's wild |
00:44.07 | brlcad | it's a sphere flake |
00:44.18 | caden|atwork | regressing infinitely? |
00:44.27 | caden|atwork | not a mandelbrot |
00:44.30 | caden|atwork | still looks cool thought |
00:44.44 | caden|atwork | s/ought/ough/ |
00:44.55 | ojwb | bit of a tank obsession there |
00:45.13 | brlcad | yeah, not a mandelbrot, recursively reducing for as many levels as you specify |

00:48.16 | caden|atwork | ahh |
00:48.45 | brlcad | not the same category as content modelers like blender where they don't focus on engineering/analysis modeling requirements, fidelity, correctness, etc |
00:48.54 | caden|atwork | right |
00:49.18 | caden|atwork | is it GUI based, with shape manipulation, or do you primarily create data files of points and lines and stuff |
00:49.26 | caden|atwork | it has been awhile since i looked at a CAD program |
00:49.33 | caden|atwork | i looked at 3D studio max like 10 years ago |
00:50.02 | brlcad | about 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') |
00:50.11 | caden|atwork | hahah |
00:50.23 | caden|atwork | i demand more renderings |
00:50.41 | caden|atwork | the one that says it took 5 days at the bottom is really nice |
00:51.04 | brlcad | it'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 |
00:51.34 | brlcad | like convert from geometry format A to B, perform signal processing on this data file, display this image, etc |
00:51.55 | caden|atwork | cool |
00:51.58 | brlcad | that's a bit misleading too -- it's a full reallistic light simulation |
00:52.57 | brlcad | and every blade of grass and every leaf is actually modeled, and every nut/bolt and wire and interior component is inside the vehicle too |
00:53.05 | caden|atwork | whoa |
00:53.14 | caden|atwork | do you know what year it was when they did that? |

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

02:25.08 | Upthorn | not necessarily. |
02:25.20 | caden|atwork | i think the perception is subjective |
02:25.23 | Upthorn | because the question doesn't have to be stupid for lots of people to ask it |
02:25.29 | Upthorn | opposite infact |
02:25.36 | Upthorn | but yeah perception is subjective |

03:55.13 | andrecastelo | i wonder why o.O |
03:55.32 | monkey123 | Are the odds pretty high of being accepted? |
03:55.47 | summatusmentis | monkey123: odds are hard to answer |
03:55.59 | ojwb | last year there were ~7000 applications from ~3000 students for 1125 places |
03:56.01 | andrecastelo | I guess it is harder to be accepted this year |
03:56.07 | ojwb | 1000 places this year |
03:56.14 | ojwb | we don't yet know the other figures |
03:56.14 | monkey123 | isee |
03:56.28 | ojwb | but a lot of those 7000 apps are really poor |
03:57.17 | ojwb | if 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 |
03:57.31 | summatusmentis | and ultimately, only ~3000 students, they're not gonna accept multiple apps for each student, obviously |
03:57.38 | ojwb | indeed |
03:57.50 | *** join/#gsoc estimate- (n=tob@23.85-200-135.bkkb.no) |
03:57.52 | ojwb | so the "random" odds last year were about 1 in 3 |
03:57.52 | summatusmentis | so yes, 7000 is big, but it's really only 3000 |
03:57.57 | andrecastelo | I've been massacrated this year, school final terms conflicted with gsoc's timeline :( |
03:58.10 | summatusmentis | andrecastelo: there are ways around that |
03:59.02 | andrecastelo | i am completely free from tomorrow on |
03:59.15 | andrecastelo | and my application still needs work |
03:59.19 | ojwb | you've got a busy couple of days then! |
03:59.31 | andrecastelo | yeah |
04:00.00 | andrecastelo | at least I've been writing patches for the org I want to apply to |
04:00.13 | ojwb | but then most of the applications we've had need more work, so you aren't alone |

04:09.45 | werdna | what value of e? |
04:10.05 | Landon | werdna: s/heads and tails/bases and sides/ |
04:10.25 | jasebo | if two applications are equally good, and one of them has been submitting patches, or chatting to developers on IRC |
04:10.32 | jasebo | that second one will have an advantage |
04:11.02 | jasebo | ojwb: we're very partial :-) We want the best students |
04:11.10 | ojwb | more than that, I'd be hesitant to accept an application if the submitter hadn't interacted |
04:11.24 | ojwb | it's hard to mentor someone who won't interact |
04:12.31 | ojwb | some 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 |

08:47.26 | LawnGnome | sohum: 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. |
08:47.46 | werdna | I turned 18 after I started working for Wikimedia (a US not-for-profit) in Australia |
08:48.01 | werdna | the employment contract was informal until I turned 18. |
08:48.15 | werdna | They specified tasks, I'd finish them, I'd get a check for however much money. |
08:48.35 | sohum | but you wouldn't have any legal recourse if you didn't, is that it? |
08:48.39 | sohum | LawnGnome: hmmm. fair enough. |
08:48.42 | werdna | that's right. |

11:05.41 | apaliwal | then it is difficult to cope up |
11:06.03 | apaliwal | espacially because not many students are used to programming like it happens in industry |
11:06.43 | apaliwal | anyways it will be a challenge and good experiance from learning point of view |
11:06.45 | omniter | apaliwal, it's BECAUSE you're not used it that this bonding period exists. so you have time to get used to it. |
11:07.09 | apaliwal | yah..I agree |
11:07.21 | kblin | I'm not sure how coding open source and coding in industry are that closely related |
11:07.42 | kblin | the only closed source project I worked on was a piece of crap, code-wise |
11:08.20 | kblin | I mean it did work, but it took me two weaks to make it compile without warnings and stuff |
11:08.38 | kblin | and I had to rewrite half of it to make it IPv6-capable |
11:08.56 | smtms | kblin, "coding in industry" as opposed to "coding in college" |
11:09.02 | kblin | oh, I see |

11:09.36 | kblin | you're not expected to learn that during the community bonding period |
11:10.35 | kblin | of course it's a bit differnet from "fill in the missing quicksort function" |

11:13.59 | apaliwal | these can be few possiblities |
11:14.02 | ojwb | commercial code generally doesn't get seen by people and has deadlines to ship by, so sadly it tends to be rather ropey in places |
11:14.03 | Nightrose | hey folks :) I am one of the admins for KDE and see two proposals marked as ineligible - when i want tosee them i get a message saying "There is no such active entity." - any hints what is going on? |
11:14.40 | ojwb | did you or another admin/mentor mark them? |
11:14.44 | ojwb | as ineligible |
11:14.50 | lfranchi | it's possible |
11:15.03 | lfranchi | but now we can't select them anymore, trying to do so results in a "no such active entity" page |
11:15.07 | ojwb | someone was asking something similar earlier, about a proposal which had disappeared and reappeared |
11:15.18 | casinaroyale | apaliwal: thank you |
11:15.20 | ojwb | pointed them to #melange, but didn't hear anything more |
11:15.23 | Wolf_OSGeo | Nightrose: can confirm that it happens to me too |
11:15.30 | Nightrose | ok thanks :) |
11:15.55 | Nightrose | goes and asks in #melange |
11:17.15 | apaliwal | it can happen |
11:17.21 | apaliwal | it is mentioned somewhere |
11:17.30 | apaliwal | that if someone from ur org marks it |
11:17.37 | apaliwal | as spam(ineligiable) |
11:17.46 | kblin | Nightrose: I think pawel said he was working on this stuff today |
11:17.49 | apaliwal | than it will not be accesible afterwords |
11:18.12 | kblin | Nightrose: perhaps it's still not completely done |
11:18.14 | apaliwal | probably someone from ur org marked it as spam |
11:18.34 | kblin | Nightrose: there's reasons why it's called the "bleeding" edge |
11:18.44 | Nightrose | apaliwal: that would be really bad cause I want to know who did it and why :/ |

13:29.58 | apaliwal | one 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 |
13:31.01 | z3r0 | apaliwal: 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. |

14:06.38 | dgsudharsan | hello 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? |
14:07.13 | kblin | Nightrose: 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 |
14:07.18 | dwins | dgsudharsan: you might look at KDE (specifically, Marble or KStars from the KDE-Edu project) |
14:07.36 | kblin | Nightrose: and the bug about it not being accessible is still being worked on |
14:07.57 | kblin | encarta is popular? |
14:08.04 | dgsudharsan | ok but this is entirely a new idea.. So can i propose.. |
14:08.07 | Nightrose | dgsudharsan: yea definitely have a look at kstars from KDE :) |
14:08.12 | Nightrose | yes you can |

18:06.11 | ajuonline | because someone told me, this time only 1 app per org. |
18:06.29 | summatusmentis | I don't believe that's true |
18:06.29 | hwked | are we allowed to put images into proposals? |
18:06.36 | Nightrose | we at KDE already have several people with 2 applications so that is not true |
18:07.03 | Nightrose | hwked: i think so |
18:07.36 | hwked | and is there a character limit for the proposal? |
18:07.57 | omniter | hwed, only for the abstract. |
18:08.03 | rwatson | ajuonline: 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 |
18:08.11 | omniter | you can't really measure a formatted propsal in characters anyway. |
18:08.22 | omniter | there's bullets and images and crap |
18:08.32 | rwatson | ajuonline: 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) |

18:10.55 | rwatson | Nightrose: but I think submitting 2-3 if you really want to work with an org is a reasonable strategy to improve your chances |
18:11.04 | Nightrose | true |
18:11.31 | rwatson | Nightrose: if the org gets 6-10 proposals for the one idea, and yours is strong, you may still not get it because all it takes is one person with a stronger proposal |

18:12.05 | rwatson | Nightrose: but if you submit two strong proposals, even if they are less enthused about your second idea, they might pick you because it seems you write strong proposals. |
18:12.05 | Nightrose | jep - we had a lot of those last year :( |
18:12.13 | harlan | ... which is why I am a firm believer in engaging with the students to get an idea of how they will be to work with. |
18:12.26 | rwatson | Nightrose: yeah, don't want to reject good students just because they all picked the same idea. |

18:13.09 | Nightrose | harlan: heh not as nice as you think ;-) |
18:13.11 | rwatson | harlan: can't argue with early engagement. |
18:13.15 | thiago_home | make sure you ran a spellchecker, for example |

18:16.37 | gchaix | Yup. Cuts down on the garbage applications, too |
18:16.44 | rwatson | gchaix: it does lead to a few duds where a bit too much feedback is given, leading to a proposal written by the pre-submission mentor rather than the student |

20:37.50 | dho_plan9 | you're probably connecting to the wrong port |
20:38.05 | lh | dennda: 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 |

20:39.42 | lh | so mentors who are around for another gsoc - how is application quality looking? |
20:40.03 | Ivanovic | hmm, most require some work |
20:40.06 | lh | so 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 |
20:40.10 | dho_plan9 | lh: There's no spam this year, at least. |
20:40.11 | Ivanovic | that is: the ones submitted to google so far |
20:40.13 | schumaml | comparable to last year |
20:40.21 | lh | dho_plan9: that's what i thought. |
20:40.22 | summatusmentis | dho_plan9: thanks |
20:40.29 | thiago_home | less apps than last year for us too |
20:40.32 | lh | schumaml: ok good to know |
20:40.42 | Ivanovic | many of our perfectionists have not submitted so far, but we are sure that their proposals will be about as good as they can get... |
20:40.54 | ArthurLiu | remarkably low amount of spam and unworkable apps, I'd say 60% of our applications we'd like to pursue |
20:41.06 | dho_plan9 | lh: I've solicited a bunch of students and those I've gotten to apply are doing rather well on their applications. |

20:42.22 | lh | i want to give 24 hours for folks to actually put applications in if they haven't yet. |

20:43.17 | spectie | or cold apps ? |
20:43.24 | ArthurLiu | having more admins with more time definitely helped drive up the conversation with students |

20:43.34 | lh | arma: good to know. btw, i will be in nyc when you visit. i cannot take you for beers. :( unless you are coming to penguin day sf, in which case i can buy you beers. |
20:43.38 | Ivanovic | beside this we had 14 proposals of varying quality submitted, several rather shallow, several really good |

20:48.32 | summatusmentis | but I may be wrong |

21:56.49 | spectie | which at the moment pretty much means english + any romance language |
21:57.00 | Ivanovic | spectie: since we are just a smaller project we communicate in english between each other |
21:57.20 | summatusmentis | submits his proposal in the "what's your sign?" language |
21:57.21 | Ivanovic | though when it comes to the game we are really multilang... http://www.wesnoth.org/gettext/ |
21:57.32 | spectie | Ivanovic, we're a small project |
21:57.43 | spectie | but given the nature, most people speak at least two romance languages |
21:57.50 | spectie | Ivanovic, cool |
21:58.01 | summatusmentis | spectie: was gonna say, your org isn't like most orgs :) |
21:58.11 | spectie | Ivanovic, you should suggest to your catalan translators that they use apertium ;) |
21:58.24 | spectie | aye |
21:58.32 | Ivanovic | spectie: feel free to do so yourself, just ping ettin |
21:58.53 | spectie | ok :) |
21:58.58 | Ivanovic | (i think he is the lone wolf working on this translation at the moment) |
21:59.32 | spectie | aha |
21:59.34 | Ivanovic | spectie: and the main question is: when is a project "big", when is it "small"? |
21:59.40 | spectie | yep |
21:59.43 | spectie | that is a big question ;) |
22:00.08 | Ivanovic | when looking at our credits we are probably a huge project... http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/Credits |

22:09.12 | summatusmentis | ThomasWaldmann: you're not the first person to express those sentiments :) |

22:36.50 | Arc | IIRC in 2007 we had 20 apps in the first 24 hours |
22:37.08 | ThomasWaldmann | maybe it depends a bit on the given ideas |

22:38.13 | Arc | freebsd-brooks: good but sorry to hear |
22:38.19 | ThomasWaldmann | that likely means we get less, but better apps, because people really have to think about and investigate stuff before writing their proposal. |
22:38.40 | Arc | ive been somewhat afraid that encouraging students to talk to a mentor before submitting is what's caused the much lower application rate |
22:39.05 | anothy_x | the 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. |
