00:20.08electrnohello all
00:20.10[Evan]@moacir Yes, that the spreadsheet I was looking for.  I thought the page with the list of which orgs were in each year had the number of student slots, as well.
00:20.16electrnoi am from india
00:21.07electrnowant to do some interesting programming projet in summer like making typing latex easier
00:21.30electrnosay latex support in latex
00:21.47electrnoi mean latex support in eclipse
00:21.47*** join/#gsoc RT|Chatzilla (~rt@reactos/tester/RT)
00:22.32electrnodeveloping google chrome
00:22.41electrnoprogramming in python or google go
00:23.27electrnobasically i have ideas but havnt really worked on open source b4
00:23.32electrnony help
00:24.18Catfish_Manelectrno: not sure if chrome will be one of the mentoring organizations or not
00:24.24Catfish_Manthere should be plenty of python projects though
00:24.38electrnowellll cxhrome is of goolge rit
00:24.40electrnoso........
00:24.47electrnoit has to be part of gsoc
00:25.00Catfish_Manno
00:25.04Catfish_Mangoogle is not a mentoring organization
00:25.04electrnohmm
00:25.10electrnook
00:25.27electrnoso no projects on google go either then??
00:25.33Catfish_Manprobably not
00:25.37electrnohmm
00:25.48electrnoso ny nice python projects
00:25.56electrnobasically not proting stuff
00:26.01electrnosomerthing more concrete
00:26.04Catfish_Man"proting"?
00:26.09electrnomore useful for community in geneeral
00:26.20Catfish_Manthe python software foundation has been a mentoring organization in past years, so likely will be again
00:26.21electrnoporting
00:26.24Catfish_Manah
00:26.46electrnoi mean i dont wanna do the hard coding stuff
00:27.01electrnoi want to do something which is of use
00:27.05electrnoplan it then do it
00:27.18electrnoya python will be a part of it
00:27.23electrnogsoc
00:27.30electrnothats not the question
00:27.49electrnothe ques  is i tried to search for projects for some tym
00:28.02electrnobut couldnt find something to my taste
00:28.03Catfish_Manidea lists for projects haven't been posted yet
00:28.12Catfish_Manbut each organization will have a list of ideas
00:28.25electrnowe can always give our own
00:28.29electrno:)
00:28.32Catfish_Manyup :)
00:28.43electrnodats y i am not after ideas list
00:28.53electrnoi havnt reasearched on dat
00:29.30electrnomy motive is to do something productive in this summer in field of programming
00:29.40electrnoif if i get money for it
00:29.49electrnoit will only add to the fun
00:29.54Catfish_Manthat's the idea, yeah :)
00:30.00[Evan]Check out last year's list of mentoring orgs tagged by prog. language and project type: http://delicious.com/gsoc2009/
00:30.12electrnoi did dat
00:30.22electrnoso i have an idea of mentoring organisations
00:31.01electrnobut i find the lsit is fulll of stuff in which one has to read a lot of code and either debug it , or port it, or rewrite it
00:31.32electrnoits hard to find organisations going for ideas from scratch
00:31.39electrnoor concepts
00:31.48electrnoi hope u get the idea
00:32.23electrnoso i want help on that part
00:32.31electrnohomework stuff leave it to me
00:33.18electrnothats y u c i started off with nice stuff
00:33.26electrnochrome ,python ,google go
00:33.47Catfish_Mango is pretty much unused in any real projects so far, afaik
00:33.53electrnowriting a bootloader say for ARM
00:34.13electrno@CM exactly thats the point
00:34.25[Evan]I think very few projects will let you start from nothing.
00:34.28electrnoitg is a new potential prog lang
00:34.33electrnowaiting to be used
00:34.53electrnowel i am willing to try
00:34.55electrno:)
00:34.58*** join/#gsoc laknath_ (~buddhika@112.135.70.92)
00:35.06Catfish_Manyeah, I can't think of any
00:35.12Catfish_Manit's sort of against the point
00:35.14electrnoill look for a dirty one to fall back on
00:35.26Catfish_Manthe idea of soc is to get involved in an existing project
00:35.50electrnowell i thought it was to do something interesting with what we already have
00:36.32Catfish_ManI don't know what that means
00:36.37electrnohmm
00:36.59electrnohow abt this
00:37.07electrnolatex support in eclipse
00:37.20electrnoi mean ppl have to type latex code manually
00:37.32Catfish_Manthat sounds like a reasonable project if eclipse is a mentoring organization, and it's something that can be done by one person in 3 months
00:37.43electrnoso use eclipse fro assistint to write latex
00:37.59Catfish_Manwhat skills do you have? that should help narrow things down somewhat
00:38.08electrnoeclipse should be mentoring organisation
00:38.36electrnosee basically i have done some c ,c++ java progg
00:38.47electrnoalgorithm related stuff
00:39.08electrnoi like participating in prog compititions
00:39.15electrnoi am not a hardcore dev
00:39.28electrnowho churns out code all day
00:39.49Catfish_Manbe aware the summer of code is expected to be a fulltime summer job equivalent
00:39.54summatusmentis!orgsbylang
00:39.55socinfo"orgsbylang" is The 2009 list is work in progress: http://delicious.com/gsoc2009/bundle:Languages
00:39.56electrnoso i want help in finding something of my taste
00:40.12electrnothats precisely why i am willling to do it
00:41.17electrnoi am also interested in electronics and robotivcs, atMega, beagleboard
00:41.27electrnobut that stuff is not here in gsoc
00:41.51electrnobut i am just telling this to give an idea of wot sort of proj i am looking 4
00:42.36electrnoCatfish_man????
00:42.43electrnony suggestions
00:43.19Catfish_Manelectrno: other than "spell properly if you want to be taken seriously", no, not really. It sounds like you don't really know what you're looking for
00:43.37electrnook
00:43.56electrnoi dont think i do
00:44.06electrnothats y im looking for help
00:44.22Catfish_ManI don't think you'll find much in gsoc that's at all similar to competitions
00:44.33Catfish_Manthey tend to be more about math tricks and algorithm games than software engineering
00:44.42electrnohmm
00:45.22electrnoso tell me wot kind of things can i learn to do software engineering
00:45.55Catfish_Mangenerally it's a matter of experience. Find a project that you use yourself and are interested in improving, then get involved and make the improvements
00:46.10Catfish_Manyou make important contacts, learn new skills, and improve software you use all at once :)
00:47.14electrnoso getting a project in gsoc is more about experience in coding than coding skills or otherwise
00:47.15Catfish_Manone of the nice things about gsoc is that it's a chance for people with only academic experience to acquire real world software experience
00:47.25electrnothats me
00:47.27electrno:)
00:47.52electrnothats what i am looking for
00:47.59Catfish_Manmostly. There are exceptions. x264 is going to test even the most obsessive architecture/optimization geek's skills, for example
00:48.05Catfish_Mannods to Dark_Shikari
00:48.17*** join/#gsoc dhart (~dhart@82.057.dsl.syd.iprimus.net.au)
00:48.51electrnox264 would involve la lot of c coding i think as it is codec development
00:49.01Catfish_Mana lot of x86 asm as well
00:49.06electrnoyeah
00:49.16electrnothat will take time to learn
00:49.27Catfish_Manfor myself, when I was involved in GSoC it was as a mentor for Adium
00:49.34electrnook
00:49.48Catfish_Manwhich is not so difficult to work on in terms of skills, but is a bit of a shock to students in terms of scale ;)
00:50.01electrnothats f9
00:50.09electrnoif it is fun
00:50.31Catfish_Manso, turning the questions around: what open source software do you use yourself?
00:50.36Catfish_Manwhat do you think needs improvement?
00:50.44electrnosee i have had academic experience in coding (not as a part of course .. more of self taught)
00:50.53Catfish_Manyou've given a few examples that seem like decent potential gsoc ideas already
00:51.02electrnoi know that
00:51.10electrnobut u said that
00:51.40electrnoit will be tough to get a proj which start from a basic idea then develops into a code
00:52.04Catfish_Manadding a single large feature to an existing codebase is absolutely in scope for gsoc
00:52.22electrnoseems interesting
00:52.31electrnobassically let me shock you
00:52.35electrnoi am from india
00:52.49electrnoam doing 2nd yr btech in aerospace engineering
00:52.58*** join/#gsoc fsteeg_ (~fsteeg@xdsl-78-34-142-198.netcologne.de)
00:53.18electrnobut have been doing prorgamming (math tricks and all) since 10 yrs
00:53.28Catfish_Mannone of that is shocking at all. It's about normal for #gsoc :P
00:53.43electrnothats y i wanna try for gsoc
00:54.07electrnobut when i tried lookiing for project even the ones done last yr
00:54.16electrnowith such interest in mind
00:54.44electrnoi was leading into a a recursive prob with no base case
00:54.45electrno:)
00:55.06electrnothat y i thought to come on irc
00:55.26electrnoi think we must not spam the irc like i have been selfishly doing
00:55.52electrnoso a pvt chat instead or is this f9
00:56.26Catfish_Manthis is fine. I just think you should look at what software you use, and consider it
00:56.36electrnohmm
00:57.06Catfish_Manworked well for me :)
00:57.23Catfish_Manself taught -> adium -> jive -> adium -> apple
00:57.32electrnoeclipse is the only one dat comes to my imnd
00:57.42electrnoehich is potential gsoc mentor
00:58.17electrnosrry for typos
00:58.25electrnoi make too many of dem
00:59.01Catfish_Manactually you're doing much better than most non-native english speakers. I was a bit harsh earlier because I assumed you were from the US based on speech patterns ;)
00:59.21electrnoi told u i am from india
00:59.30Catfish_Manyes, I meant before that
00:59.39electrnojust make typos while typing
00:59.47electrnocoz i watch on keyboard and type
01:00.33electrnosoo....
01:00.48electrnowhat should i go for..
01:01.05Catfish_Manin the end you have to make up your own mind. Eclipse seems like a good idea to me though
01:01.14electrnohmm
01:01.23summatusmentisEclipse was not  a mentoring organization last year, I don't think
01:01.40Catfish_Manthat would make that not as good an idea if so ;)
01:01.40electrnobasically i am exploring options rit now
01:01.48electrnoso as to make a better choice
01:01.49electrno:)
01:02.09electrnoafaik eclipse foundation was a mentoring organisation
01:02.24electrnoin2k9]
01:02.26summatusmentisI might be wrong, they weren't listed under java on the orgsbylang thing
01:02.28summatusmentisthat I saw
01:02.46electrnohmm
01:02.52summatusmentisbut I also didn't look that hard
01:02.56summatusmentisI might be wrong
01:03.00electrnois it ok to use hmmin irc
01:03.07electrnohmm in irc
01:03.15electrnothere r rules here ithnk
01:03.44electrnoi havnt been on irc much actually
01:03.45electrno:)
01:04.01summatusmentisit's addicting, watch yourself :)
01:04.14electrnowots addictiong??
01:04.54summatusmentisusing IRC
01:05.15electrnotill now havnt had much of experience
01:06.06electrnowhich shows that it is addictig
01:08.00electrnoi havnt used much software from the organisations in gsoc
01:08.14electrnoso i really dont know which way to look
01:08.40Catfish_Manpick something fun then I guess
01:08.56electrnothats wot my aim is
01:08.58summatusmentiswhen I participated in GSoC, I wa a part of an organization I'd never heard of working on a project I didn't previously know existed
01:09.17electrnobut i cant go on searching for it with brute force algorithm
01:09.30electrnoso how did u get it
01:09.48electrnoor rather given my lack of experience
01:10.20summatusmentisit's a matter of convincing the org you want to work with that you're competent, and that they should use of the limited spots they have on you
01:10.21electrnohow do i search for a project and convince the mentors that i am up for the project
01:10.51summatusmentisthis means showing a willingness to learn, a willingness to work hard, and a willingness to work with them to meet their goals
01:10.52electrnogiven my lack of experience..
01:11.09electrnoi know i have it
01:11.12electrnohow to show it
01:11.26summatusmentisthat's the difficult part
01:11.36electrnoyeah
01:11.42summatusmentisif you can get involved now, before the deadlines, you're probably better off
01:11.48electrnobut i have the willingness to do dat too
01:12.52summatusmentisthere's no magic formula
01:13.20summatusmentisI think if you can show passion, competency, and willingness to learn, you've got a pretty good shot
01:14.08electrno:)
01:14.21electrnoso how to aim
01:14.28electrnothe shot
01:15.55summatusmentispick something that matches those
01:16.05summatusmentisif you don't care about what you're working on, you're not going to do well
01:16.26summatusmentisif you flounder a lot, and get in over your head, you're not going to do too well
01:16.35*** join/#gsoc invernizzi (~luca@cpe-67-49-180-68.hawaii.res.rr.com)
01:16.41electrnoerr.....
01:16.43summatusmentisif you're bored by how easy the project you're working on is, you're likely to pay attention to other things
01:16.46electrnodidnt get it
01:16.55electrnosimplfy a little
01:17.10electrnoohhhh
01:17.36summatusmentisbasically, you should try to pick something that will allow you to be passionate, something that will allow you to not get too stuck, and freak out, and something that you have to stretch a little bit to learn
01:18.04electrnothats wot i am here for
01:18.16electrnolooking and asking for suggestions for such a thing
01:18.32electrnoif u have such a thing plz suggest it
01:18.40summatusmentiswe can suggest things, but only you know your own skill level
01:18.46summatusmentisand only you know what you care about
01:19.02electrnoskills can be built
01:19.21electrnowell if u wanna
01:19.29summatusmentisit's hard to build the skills in 3 months if you have no pre-requisite knowledge
01:19.38electrnolets talk pvt so that ill tell my skills
01:19.47summatusmentisI don't really have time
01:19.48electrnoso that u can bettr suggest me
01:19.53summatusmentisworking on a paper
01:20.07electrnowot knid
01:20.12electrnosome algo..
01:20.15summatusmentisfor a Spanish literature class
01:20.28electrnoohh
01:20.47summatusmentisthe other thing you should consider, many organizations are looking for you to be self-driven
01:21.00summatusmentisand part of that can be shown by seeking them out
01:21.11summatusmentisnot waiting for someone to tell you where to look
01:21.16electrnoso frnd plz suggest some such organisations
01:21.21Catfish_Manheh
01:21.22summatusmentiswhat do you _want_ to work on?
01:21.30Catfish_Manyou don't want him to suggest organizations that want you to be self driven
01:21.35Catfish_Manthat would be pretty much automatic "no"
01:22.02electrnohmm
01:22.28*** join/#gsoc AlexUA (~AlexUA@c-76-99-32-147.hsd1.pa.comcast.net)
01:22.29electrnoso we r having a motivation talk rather than concerte ideas discussion here ithink?
01:22.47summatusmentisnot motivation exactly
01:23.05electrnobut on similar lines..
01:23.34summatusmentisWhat I'm trying to say is: I don't feel like it's something that we can tell you to look at. Partially because everyone's experiences are different, partially because we don't know you well enough
01:23.40electrnobasically fro ideas discussion gsoc page suggested idling on freenode
01:23.56summatusmentisthat's one way to get ideas
01:24.07electrno:)
01:24.07Catfish_Manwhat you get out of it depends on what you put into it
01:24.12Catfish_Manand right now all you're putting in is questions
01:24.20Catfish_Manso you're unlikely to get answers
01:24.27summatusmentisanother is to go seek out an org that has been a part of gsoc in the past, see if they're planning on applying this year, and getting to know them
01:25.30kpreidelectrno: when I did gsoc, I wrote three project proposals: one of them was from discussions with folks from a project I already knew that was going into gsoc, one of them was just browsing the org list, and the 3rd was a gsoc faq#no-org totally off the wall idea that me and my mentor for that proposal came up with
01:25.47kpreidso, there's three ways to do it :-)
01:26.01kpreid(I wouldn't recommend the 3rd option for you)
01:26.12electrnoaah
01:26.23kpreidbut I would recommend: browse the org list once it's posted
01:26.24electrnonow i am getting somewhere
01:26.35electrno:)
01:26.38summatusmentismy first time was 2. One from an org I was very interested in, and already mildly active in, and One was to an org that found me
01:26.50kpreidpick out the ones which use a language you like and work on something you like
01:26.57electrnook
01:26.58kpreidthen look at their project ideas page and pick one
01:27.02summatusmentisturns out, the org that found me was the one  that I worked with, but I don't think that's a common experience
01:27.11kpreid*every org has an ideas page*
01:27.24electrnohmm
01:27.24kpreidbut remember...you can't just cut'n'paste in their idea
01:27.29Catfish_Manheh yeah
01:27.32Catfish_Manso many people do that
01:27.33Catfish_Mansuper annoying

01:28.08electrnoso that ill have a better idea of wot to do
01:28.15kpreidelectrno: every project is different
01:28.15Catfish_Manelectrno: I already mentioned that I was a mentor
01:28.20Catfish_ManI haven't been a student in gsoc
01:28.22kpreidthe only common element is that they involve writing code
01:28.40electrnoi am not asking for the common denominator
01:28.58electrnoi am just asking for the work that u ppl did or menotred

01:39.17electrnohave nyone tried google go
01:39.50electrnofusion of c and python by google
01:40.17kpreidif you have to ask, you probably shouldn't be considering using it for a gsoc project
01:40.36kpreidotoh if you could work *on* the google go implementation for gsoc, say...
01:40.44electrnoi was interested to know its popularity level
01:41.24electrnocoz the lang seems pretty interesting
01:42.21electrnokpreid............
01:42.28kpreidyeeeeeees?
01:42.53electrnohave u tried google go
01:43.10electrnoand wot did u mean by working on the implementation of go for gsoc
01:44.20electrnoatleast answer the 2nd ques
01:44.33kpreidgoogle go is an open source project, it could be in gsoc. not saying it would be, but it could be
01:44.51kpreidand stop demanding answers. we are not paid help. ask, don't nag.
01:44.51electrnoya so..
01:45.06electrnoi was requesting
01:46.25electrnois there any application /organisation that works on latex
01:46.43electrnoie providing a frontend for latex
01:47.04kpreidthe list of orgs for gsoc 2010 hasn't been announced yet, so nobody knows
01:47.16electrnono i meant
01:47.20kpreidyou could find such orgs and check/ask if they'll be doing gsoc...
01:47.30electrnothe applications for latex
01:47.33kpreidbut if you want to know what such orgs are then this is NOT the place to ask
01:47.43kpreiddo a little searching. try #latex. etc

09:37.54viveknSo,do we stand a chance??
09:38.42DylanJNot sure yet.
09:39.19viveknHave you decided on any projects to apply for?
09:39.55DylanJi haven't seen this years list.
09:40.28DylanJlast year i was thinking about rockbox but i wasn't able to participate.
09:43.06skbohravivekn: you know so many things, i doubt you will require all of them :)
09:43.40loupgaroublondwell, GSoC isn't just a program where you put up your coding skills, but you also should also get to know a particular open source community better
09:44.02skbohraits more about open source love
09:44.06DylanJGSoC projects seem so intimidating though.
09:44.22skbohraDylanJ: intimidating in sense ?
09:45.04loupgaroublondas a mentor, i wouldn't say that, i pick projects based on what value it brings to the fedora project
09:45.04DylanJskbohra: I remember reading some of the projects and they seemed like "build a city out over the summer"
09:45.24skbohraDylanJ: seriously your were somewhere else then
09:46.08DylanJNot literally of course. But I felt as if i needed a ton of knowledge about X project before I could start.
09:46.10skbohraDylanJ: the passed out rate last summer was almost 90% and we didnt build cities
09:46.49skbohraits that you dont work only because you need money
09:47.20skbohraits because you want to give back
09:47.25DylanJidc about the money, i'd rather learn a project.
09:47.37DylanJprojects are big and complicated and it scares me.
09:48.18DylanJbut i want to help out
09:49.33skbohraDylanJ: start right away, i would suggest

09:53.16DylanJDark_Shikari: I'm not sure where to start though, for instance you mention x264 and not knowing anything about anything when you started. How did you dive in?
09:53.36Dark_ShikariYou dive in by dropping by the IRC channel of the project you're interested
09:53.36skbohraDark_Shikari: thats a nice piece of writing
09:53.39Dark_Shikari*you're interested in
09:53.43Dark_Shikariand asking questions
09:53.49Dark_Shikarigrabbing the code, reading it, asking questions.
09:53.58Dark_Shikaritry to learn how things work.
09:54.08Dark_Shikariand eventually decide on something small you want to mess with
09:54.12Dark_ShikariThen you go mess with it.
09:54.15Dark_ShikariAnd thus, your first patch.
09:55.11DylanJI will try to follow this advice.
09:55.20DylanJ:)
09:55.23Dark_Shikaribasically, you have to start somewhere
09:55.30Dark_Shikarimy primary advice is to learn to black box things
09:55.42Dark_Shikarii.e. you have a vague idea of what everything else in a program does, but you haven't touched it
09:55.57Dark_Shikariand you "black box it" and don't think about it, so you can focus on the part you want to mess with
09:56.36Dark_Shikarias in the x264 example, two years ago in Summer of Code 2008, part of the qualification task was to mess with the motion search code to show that you could do this
09:56.44Dark_Shikarisince it was possible to do that messing without knowing anything else about the program

12:02.12Ivanovicdepends on the project
12:02.14lut4rp'closed' usually means it was never a bug, just an misunderstood issue.
12:02.26lut4rp'resolved' goes for a bug that was fixed
12:02.36lut4rpWe use closed and fixed for Drupal.
12:03.00Ivanovicat wesnoth we close bug reports after the fixes are included in a release
12:03.24Ivanovicthat is: the status says if it is fixed or not, if the bug report is not closed yet it means that you only get it in svn head
12:04.50lut4rpInteresting.
12:05.01texensI'm new to community coding and really appreciate if someone could give me an overview(or a link) of how the bug cycle works..

12:05.23Dark_Shikariit depends entirely on the project
12:05.24Ivanovicevery project handles things differently!
12:05.29Dark_Shikarievery project has its own way of doing things
12:05.59Dark_Shikarifor example, we don't have bug reports, we have IRC and forums, and people post about bugs, and we fix them
12:06.05texensthanks I'll ask on the project's channel :-)
12:06.19lut4rptexens, If it helps, http://drupal.org/node/156119 is how we handle it at Drupal.
12:06.34SylvestreI don't have any bugs in my project. no worries then
12:06.46lut4rp:)

13:26.21daurnimatorwondering what the status for south hemisphereian types is in regards to being a student...
13:26.46daurnimatorI remember I looked at doing GSoC in previous years, but found that australian students were not allowed
13:26.59daurnimatori find no such comment this time around
13:27.16Dark_Shikariaustralian students not allowed? o.0

13:30.45daurnimatorwell, by the act of ommittance, I assume its allowed
13:31.06araujoreally?... I don't remember that from previous years
13:31.16daurnimatora problem is though, that I do have uni on for the period of the soc
13:32.17*** join/#gsoc LawnGnome (~adam@unaffiliated/lawngnome)
13:33.29daurnimatoroh well, assuming i can do the soc; anyone able to help me with looking up possible projects? or is it too early for that
13:36.23araujonot sure what kind of help you would expect to receive for that, pretty much the student choose the project he/she wants to participate
13:37.31daurnimatortrue
13:37.51araujobest advice is to check for projects/organizations around topics that are interesting for you
13:39.13daurnimatorwell my favorite thing by far is programming with lua, or doing things with lua... so I'm sort of hoping to find a project thats wanting to implement some sort of user scripting thing, or similar
13:39.45araujogood thing about gsoc is that Google chooses  a wide variety of different organizations, so you pretty much have a chance to find something of your interest there
13:41.23araujo!orgsbylang
13:41.23socinfo"orgsbylang" is The 2009 list is work in progress: http://delicious.com/gsoc2009/bundle:Languages

13:48.17araujodaurnimator, you already went through all the organizations?
13:48.30daurnimatori used the big search button
13:48.38araujothis is kind of an unofficial statistic list
13:48.44araujonot good enough
13:49.09araujomany projects could have not the language as a tag
13:49.22araujobest is to glance on the orgs pages
13:49.26araujohttp://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/program/accepted_orgs/google/gsoc2009
13:49.46araujothis is 2009 of course, glancing over it can give you an idea for this year too
