06:35.51 | harlan | to be more specific, should it be OK for me to use |

06:36.26 | kblin | if your org is ntp, sure, why not? |
06:36.47 | harlan | no idea, that's why I asked. It might be "better" if it was all caps, or ??? |

08:13.12 | ashu | you ? |
08:13.17 | welp | I somewhat think that MSc and PhD students should be more inclined to mentor students rather than do coding |
08:13.17 | robbyoconnor | that explains it all :P |
08:13.21 | welp | But I guess all students want money |
08:13.38 | robbyoconnor | ashu: why don't you go for Sahana? |
08:13.39 | [mharrison] | Oh that is too funny. Street View just took me into a parking lot at a main intersection...I assume because the Google guys stopped to plan their route |

08:14.42 | robbyoconnor | [mharrison]: you need to get out more! |
08:14.51 | [mharrison] | welp, I'd hate to exclude anyone, but I'd definitely support X number of slots set aside for undergrads |

08:19.31 | welp | [mharrison]: Oh, I'm not saying that people should be excluded at all! But if Google were to (for example) mention on the GSoC page that a large part of the aim is to get undergraduate students Open Source experience |
08:19.38 | welp | That might put off some of the MSc/PhD students |
08:19.54 | [mharrison] | Well the goal isn't to get just undergrads...it's all students |
08:20.04 | welp | But on the other hand, I know a couple of very knowledgable freshers who are applying this year |
08:20.07 | welp | Yeah, that's true |
08:20.10 | ashu | well i guess then i am gonna go full time trying for sahana . |

08:21.03 | [mharrison] | Grad student doesn't automatically mean better, but when you have a PhD student who has several years' experience researching and working on a problem similar to a GSoC project, the undergrad has no chance |
08:21.24 | welp | Yeah |

10:30.07 | bobbens | depends on the project |
10:30.17 | bobbens | the projects I'm looking at have pretty high requirements :) |
10:30.38 | heroid | like what? |
10:30.41 | ojwb | for free software experience? |
10:30.53 | heroid | yep like most of them don't use gnu/linux |
10:31.05 | heroid | many didn't know who RMS is |
10:31.07 | [mharrison] | Huh? |
10:31.10 | heroid | or Linus Torvalds |
10:31.39 | ojwb | heroid: that was directed at bobbens |
10:32.06 | bobbens | ojwb: in general knowing a specific language, knowing how to use typical open source tools (svn, git, etc...) |
10:32.21 | bobbens | and usually some other funky stuff that you should already know :) |
10:32.31 | ojwb | but knowing a language isn't previous free software experience |

10:32.59 | heroid | yeah they will learn how to work with FOSS |
10:33.03 | heroid | sooner or later |
10:33.06 | kai | bobbens: applies for other work as well |
10:33.31 | _Samo | heroid, I think GSoC shold be used by students to learn about specific programming fields |
10:33.35 | kai | bobbens: at $DAYJOB, we also use compilers, source control and whatnot |
10:33.37 | ojwb | it's up to the org what the pick students based on, but certainly one general aim of the program is to introduce new people |
10:33.41 | _Samo | *should not |
10:33.54 | bobbens | kai: good jobs should do that, but in my experience most do horrible nasty things that can't be mentioned :) |
10:33.56 | kai | it's just that the source control is mercurial, and so far we don't really like each other |
10:34.02 | _Samo | heroid, you already have universities for that |
10:34.03 | bobbens | of course spain isn't known for it's advanced technology usage :) |

10:34.28 | bobbens | the other day someone was bragging that at their company they had just gotten "ftp" |

10:52.25 | AshishG | understanding and logic is easy |
10:52.39 | AshishG | compared to memorization for me |
10:53.20 | [mharrison] | Interesting |
10:54.32 | [mharrison] | I have no problems memorizing facts and definitions, but under the pressure of an exam, I have problems working out analytical problems that I'd otherwise be able to do...and I end up doing stupid things like I did on my AI exam the other week...lost 12 points because I came to the right answer, then second-guessed myself, crossed it all out, and did the problem again to get the wrong answer |

11:23.48 | [mharrison] | Dark_Shikari, why do you say that? Technically everyone will have less representation |
11:24.08 | Dark_Shikari | because groups which on average have lower quality will have lower representation in the final results |
11:25.03 | [mharrison] | o.O |
11:25.52 | Dark_Shikari | simple math |
11:26.07 | ojwb | certainly if you look at the statistics, India is noticably proportionally larger in applications than in accepted students |
11:26.12 | Dark_Shikari | if group A has 1000 people and a 10% odds of acceptance and group B has 200 people and 50% odds of acceptance |
11:26.18 | Dark_Shikari | both will have 100 accepted |
11:26.28 | [mharrison] | Careful, I don't think you want to piss off a country of 1bil+ people + emmigrants =P |
11:26.37 | Dark_Shikari | and india, by and large, has utter garbage quality applicants, not because they're stupid, but because of money |
11:26.52 | Dark_Shikari | Because the money is so valuable, tons of people apply just for the money |
11:26.57 | skbohra | is all ears |
11:26.58 | Dark_Shikari | and whenever that happens, you get really BAD applicants. |
11:27.05 | Dark_Shikari | Of course, this isn't true of everyone |
11:27.16 | Dark_Shikari | but it's the reason why there's such a large number of often-bad applicants from India. |
11:27.32 | Dark_Shikari | to the point where they drown out the good ones and make it unfair for them |
11:27.58 | Dark_Shikari | and anyone who thinks otherwise has never mentored before ;) |
11:28.01 | [mharrison] | There's a large number of EVERYTHING from India. Good stuff, bad stuff, average stuff...it's a huge population. Everything's big |
11:28.17 | skbohra | True |
11:28.26 | skbohra | we are really almost everywhere |
11:28.34 | Dark_Shikari | I have never received a garbage application from anywhere other than india or china |
11:28.42 | ojwb | Dark_Shikari: I've certainly noticed some very poor applications from there, but hadn't really thought about why |
11:28.45 | [mharrison] | I find that hard to believe |
11:28.51 | Dark_Shikari | where "garbage" means "student applied without reading the rules, coming on irc, or doing anything he was told to do before applying" |
11:29.11 | Dark_Shikari | I suspect there are a lot of people from there who simply throw out tons of applications |
11:29.25 | Dark_Shikari | as I said, it's rather making it unfair for the _good_ students for those countries |
11:29.29 | Dark_Shikari | *from |

11:36.49 | [mharrison] | I'd be interested in seeing a percentage breakdown in good vs bad apps from every country |
11:36.54 | ojwb | as people have said, the value of the stipend in the local economy is probably a factor, as is sheer population |

11:37.07 | Dark_Shikari | hmm, are past years' applications still around? |
11:37.12 | WWS | maybe theres a sociological reason for that, india has a HUGE competition base you see.. large population, everybodies fighting for a chance... |
11:37.13 | Dark_Shikari | I can go look at 2008's |
11:37.14 | Dark_Shikari | or 2009's |
11:37.23 | ojwb | WWS: maybe |
11:37.30 | AshishG | ojwb dude, u are screwing with my country's name, yet don't offend me :P |

11:37.57 | Dark_Shikari | so anyways, are the old years' applications still around |
11:38.06 | ojwb | AshishG: you're rubbish too! |
11:38.23 | WWS | as an indian college student myself.. i find this rather shockign |
11:38.37 | garbeam_ | I think there is a relation between open source and developed countries, meaning, open source is developed mainly in countries where people live in social security and societies are wealthy (Europe/US/Japan), those do open source for fun and not for money |
11:38.40 | Dark_Shikari | woot, I found last year's applications for videolan |
11:38.40 | [mharrison] | http://socghop.appspot.com/gsoc/program/list_projects/google/gsoc2009 |
11:38.52 | SukhE_ | This might be because of two reasons: 1) The number of CS engineers that India produces every year. 2). The exchange rate. |
11:38.59 | [mharrison] | A high percentage of Indian names, but I don't know what the actual numbers are |
11:39.08 | Dark_Shikari | SukhE_: well, india has the issue where a huge portion of CS majors are incompetent idiots |
11:39.15 | Dark_Shikari | not because indians are any less smart than anyone else |
11:39.20 | Dark_Shikari | but because way too many people apply for CS programs |
11:39.26 | [mharrison] | Dark_Shikari, and a huge portion of them are brilliant |
11:39.27 | Dark_Shikari | including people who are really not smart enough to do it |
11:39.31 | Dark_Shikari | Oh sure, there's plenty of smart ones |
11:39.32 | garbeam_ | the high percentage of students from developing countries in gsoc is related to the fact that they dont do open source development for free because they have to earn a living |
11:39.33 | [mharrison] | And a huge portion are average... |
11:39.35 | Dark_Shikari | but there are a _LOT_ of dumb ones |
11:39.39 | Dark_Shikari | far more than in other countries |
11:39.53 | Dark_Shikari | and they usually end up doing rentacoder stuff |
11:39.53 | WWS | but at least you can say that the dumb ones are trying.. |
11:39.57 | Dark_Shikari | because all the smart ones got good jobs |
11:40.37 | svbg | map |
11:40.39 | skbohra | Dark_Shikari: have you been here ? |
11:40.40 | Dark_Shikari | that's an annoying problem with india and china--when companies outsource there, they often get the worst programmers, because the good programmers all got better jobs. |
11:41.00 | WWS | hey..do you know how much pressure is put on an average engg student in india? |
11:41.01 | Dark_Shikari | skbohra: nope. it's a long flight. |
11:41.03 | [mharrison] | Again, there's just a *lot* of everything. You also have to factor in how many are studying abroad |
11:41.06 | garbeam_ | if you follow my argumentation: open source for money produces less quality than open source for fun |
11:41.07 | Dark_Shikari | WWS: probably not as much as china ;) |
11:41.14 | skbohra | Dark_Shikari: i invite you to come |
11:41.17 | Dark_Shikari | garbeam_: I would agree, but for reasons of pressure. |
11:41.28 | ojwb | garbeam_: oi, I do this for a living! |
11:41.29 | WWS | the only thing a final year student thinks about 95% og the time |
11:41.30 | Dark_Shikari | i.e. the more pressure people are put on to succeed, the worse the results will often be |
11:41.35 | WWS | is how his placements are going to go |
11:41.48 | Dark_Shikari | anyways guys, I have the videolan applications up |
11:41.54 | Dark_Shikari | this is a huge ton of applications for a major project |

11:44.17 | Dark_Shikari | I'm not |
11:44.23 | WWS | i think its unfair singling india out as a source of bad applications... i mean okay so you get 800 bad application from indian students... and say 100 good ones.. are you telling me that the good students are biased against even before application period? |
11:45.05 | Dark_Shikari | ok, anyways, let's look at these applications |

11:46.42 | Dark_Shikari | oh this is actually pretty funny, whoever wrote this web app fails |
11:46.44 | WWS | ... |
11:46.48 | Dark_Shikari | they sorted the scores LEXICOGRAPHICALLY |
11:46.53 | Dark_Shikari | so -16 comes before -1 |
11:46.58 | [mharrison] | lol |
11:47.02 | skbohra | Dark_Shikari: he's not an Indain , I am sure |
11:47.11 | skbohra | Indian* |
11:47.13 | Mek | -16 is smaller than -1? |
11:47.16 | Dark_Shikari | actually its worse than that |
11:47.20 | ojwb | is this melange, or the old webapp? |
11:47.24 | WWS | melange |
11:47.27 | Dark_Shikari | here's the ordering: |
11:47.28 | Dark_Shikari | -4 |
11:47.28 | Dark_Shikari | -3 |
11:47.29 | Dark_Shikari | -2 |
11:47.31 | Dark_Shikari | -16 |
11:47.33 | Dark_Shikari | -1 |
11:47.37 | Dark_Shikari | But guess what comes before -4? |
11:47.38 | Dark_Shikari | 0. |
11:47.47 | Dark_Shikari | 0, -4, -3, -2, -16, -1. |
11:47.52 | [mharrison] | wtf? |
11:47.55 | Dark_Shikari | brilliant? |
11:48.11 | kai | sheesh, use a pastebin and write a bug report >( |
11:48.14 | kai | er |
11:48.17 | AshishG | Dark_Shikari: when then are you from. Shikari seemed Hindi |
11:48.19 | kai | :) |
11:48.33 | Dark_Shikari | AshishG: <joke>it's my indian detector</joke> |
11:48.33 | kai | switched keyboard layouts, sorry |
11:48.46 | Dark_Shikari | anyways, let's count negative-ranked proposals then |
11:49.05 | Dark_Shikari | Total negative-ranked: 22 |
11:49.44 | WWS | and by country of origin? |
11:50.06 | *** join/#gsoc dholbach (~daniel@ubuntu/member/dholbach) |
11:51.06 | Dark_Shikari | Total indian: wow. like half the indian applicant are from the institute of technology in kharagpur |
11:51.16 | Dark_Shikari | er, s/Total indian// |
11:51.43 | ihalip | Dark_Shikari: where, where? |
11:51.52 | Dark_Shikari | from the applications I was looking at |
11:51.56 | ihalip | link me |
11:51.59 | Dark_Shikari | it's private |
11:52.02 | ojwb | you tend to get clumps from particular unis |
11:52.04 | ihalip | :( |
11:52.09 | ojwb | people hear about it and tell their classmates |
11:52.11 | Dark_Shikari | anyways, so we have at least 6 Indian applicants actually from India |
11:52.16 | WWS | ok |
11:52.16 | Dark_Shikari | more if we count from outside, about 8 I think |
11:52.31 | Dark_Shikari | now let's look at the top applications instead of the bottom |
11:52.53 | WWS | whos that? |
11:53.49 | kai | this sort of works the other way around as well |
11:53.56 | Dark_Shikari | number accepted from India: zero |
11:54.04 | Dark_Shikari | out of 12 |
11:54.23 | Dark_Shikari | out of applications rated 5 or higher (24): 3 from India. |
11:54.24 | kai | some of my fellow students said they didn't want to participate in gsoc because the pay was pretty bad |
11:54.30 | Dark_Shikari | kai: yeah :/ |
11:54.43 | Dark_Shikari | at $5000, it's not even enough for housing + food in many countries |
11:54.58 | Dark_Shikari | It might make sense if it was scaled based on local expense |
11:55.09 | kai | logistic nightmare |
11:55.16 | Tronic | There's a similar program in Finland, organized by COSS, with significantly better pay. |
11:55.24 | Dark_Shikari | Tronic: what do they pay? |
11:55.26 | WWS | but how many people apply just for the pay> |
11:55.28 | *** join/#gsoc ganja (~gunjanban@210.212.8.60) |
11:55.37 | Dark_Shikari | WWS: it's partially the reverse I imagine |
11:55.43 | Dark_Shikari | "I can get a much better-paying job doing X, and I need the money" |
11:55.51 | Dark_Shikari | "I'd rather do GSOC, but if it pays $5000 less, I can't afford it" |
11:55.58 | WWS | ohh |
11:56.07 | kai | right |
11:56.22 | kai | I did GSoC as sort of a paid hobby project |
11:56.26 | [mharrison] | $5k for 3 months is still pretty good for an undergrad in the US...if you pretend cost/time doesn't matter |
11:56.32 | kai | the first actually as a paid b.sc thesis :) |
11:56.53 | Tronic | Dark_Shikari: 1800 €/month. |
11:56.55 | Dark_Shikari | [mharrison]: no, no, it's not good |
11:57.13 | kai | Tronic: wtf? that's better than my grad job, dammit |
11:57.17 | [mharrison] | For an undergrad summer job in the US? Are you kidding? |
11:57.45 | Dark_Shikari | er... let's look at what tech companies pay for undergrad internships ok? |
11:57.52 | Dark_Shikari | facebook: $4800-5400 per month, plus housing |
11:57.59 | Dark_Shikari | green hills software: ~$4000 per month, plus housing |
11:58.12 | drt24 | got £2200 for 10 weeks work in the UK last summer |
11:58.14 | WWS | so about gsoc - say i'm submitting an application for drupal. do i have to be very experienced at it before applying? |
11:58.16 | *** join/#gsoc jing (djinn@210.77.8.142) |
11:58.29 | drt24 | GSoC is ~£3000 for 12 weeks |
11:58.32 | Dark_Shikari | ~$18 an hour is considered baseline pay |
11:58.33 | ibot | okay, Dark_Shikari |
11:58.35 | kai | WWS: talk to the drupal folks? |
11:58.37 | [mharrison] | Of course there's better. But it's not bad compared to our poor friends studying the humanities |
11:58.42 | [mharrison] | Brewing our coffee for us |
11:58.42 | SukhE | Microsoft in India pays Rs. 25, 000 per month for an intern. If you look at SoC, it turns out to be Rs. 80,000 per month. Not bad eh? |
11:58.44 | Dark_Shikari | [mharrison]: yeah, but we don't care about them ;) |
11:59.04 | kai | SukhE: and pretty much explains what Dark_Shikari was complaining about |
11:59.15 | x` | Yeah, I could do worse with a summer job in Slovenia too ... |
11:59.29 | WWS | hmm.. |
11:59.31 | kai | x`: sure, it really depends on where you're from |
11:59.32 | ojwb | looking at swig's for 2009, 2 were marked "invalid", one from russia, one from india; 3 got a negative score (valid application, but we wouldn't want a slot for them) all from india |
11:59.34 | *** join/#gsoc peper (~peper@gentoo/developer/paludis.lackey.peper) |
11:59.37 | SukhE | Indeed it depends. |
11:59.51 | Dark_Shikari | this is the hidden downside of living in a supposedly "rich" country |
11:59.52 | ojwb | we accepted 5 students, one indian, one indian living in the US |
12:00.03 | Dark_Shikari | everything costs more |
12:00.06 | ojwb | and another we'd have considered mentoring |
12:00.35 | kai | x`: but if I pulled factory shifts for Mercedes, Porsche or Bosch (all of which are local here), I could easily earn more |
12:00.35 | ojwb | so not as bad as Dark_Shikari's figures, but the bad applications have a definite bias |
12:00.42 | kai | and that's as an unskilled worker |
12:00.53 | x` | i see what you all mean, yes |
12:01.03 | Dark_Shikari | I mean, many _US_ companies and organizations pay based on region |
12:01.07 | Dark_Shikari | let alone international companies |
12:01.26 | Dark_Shikari | of course, one could argue regional pay is unfair as well in a different way. |
12:01.26 | x` | are you saying that gsoc's student base is biased towards countries with a lower standard? |
12:01.39 | kai | x`: no |
12:01.41 | Dark_Shikari | x`: towards regions with lower average wage |
12:01.49 | WWS | that makes sense.. |
12:01.50 | kai | x`: the applications might be |
12:01.56 | Dark_Shikari | and yes, applications, not students |
12:02.02 | ojwb | and towards countries with an academic year which fits the timeline sanely |
12:02.09 | kai | x`: I think the people who actually make it tend to be pretty good |
12:02.12 | WWS | indians do have a thing for applying for anything they het their hands on |
12:02.24 | kai | no matter where they're from |
12:02.24 | Dark_Shikari | WWS: sounds like soccer moms and scholarships |
12:02.34 | WWS | :-) |
12:02.57 | WWS | yeah... everything a competition... unless your in the top 95% your nothing |
12:02.59 | x` | kai: factory shifts at porche might be fun too :) |
12:02.59 | ojwb | not being scared to apply isn't necessarily a bad thing |
12:03.04 | Dark_Shikari | "top 95%"? ;) |
12:03.15 | x` | bottom 95% |
12:03.16 | ojwb | but do spend the time to write an application which won't just go straight in the reject pile |
12:03.16 | x` | :P |
12:03.25 | WWS | the cutoff for the nation level test here - GATE, CAT, AIEEE |
12:03.36 | kai | x`: it's boring, I guess. I dunno |
12:03.39 | WWS | all are around 90-95% |
12:03.56 | Dark_Shikari | WWS: which country? |
12:04.01 | ojwb | sending 10 junk applications gives you no realistic chances; sending one or two good ones does |
12:04.02 | WWS | india |
12:04.10 | x` | WWS: top 95% is like everything but the bottom 5%, that's what we're saying, you just made a silly typo, is all. |
12:04.13 | kai | x`: _I_ spent my summers doing GSoC |
12:04.49 | x` | i don't think you regret it :) |
12:04.56 | WWS | in india, the scenario is completely diferent |
12:05.00 | ojwb | looks better on a CV/resume to hi-tech employers than factory shifts at a car plan |
12:05.04 | ojwb | =t |
12:05.09 | ojwb | +t even |
12:05.13 | WWS | every student focuses on just one thing - getting a job |
12:05.16 | x` | there is immaterial value in gsoc, and that ain't little at all |
12:05.18 | kai | x`: no, but I could afford to do this for the fun of it |
12:05.30 | AshishG | OMG! you guys are just thrashing India |

12:09.00 | Dark_Shikari | btw, for reference, for the indians here, the best way to overcome the stereotype and be more successful in applying for gsoc |
12:09.02 | ojwb | very very few students take them up on that |
12:09.02 | ajuonline | WWS: why ? |
12:09.07 | Dark_Shikari | is to prove that you know what you're doing |
12:09.13 | Dark_Shikari | by actually doing work |
12:09.22 | WWS | why i;m applying for gsoc? |
12:09.24 | Dark_Shikari | mentors have been largely trained to ignore claims in indian applications of "I am skilled at X" |

16:16.10 | srajbr | but i found the ubuntu documentation complex |
16:16.27 | LetterRip_ | also it depends on how compex a project you have tackled before |
16:16.40 | LetterRip_ | and what sort of experience outside of coding you have |
16:16.52 | LetterRip_ | ie math and physics majors tend to be able to get up to speed quicker |

16:21.24 | srajbr | well i m a alogrithm sound |
16:21.38 | srajbr | i like to solve a problem in a way or the other |

16:22.37 | LetterRip_ | if you can do those |
16:22.45 | LetterRip_ | then you might consider applying |
16:22.54 | LetterRip_ | if you struggle with what they consider easy |

16:24.02 | LetterRip_ | also you might want to apply to a lot of projects to improve your odds, but each project will want a well written proposal |
16:24.10 | LetterRip_ | so that could be a big time investment |
16:24.26 | LetterRip_ | also most projects prefer prior engagement with the community |
16:24.28 | jall | ojwb: if a student came to us with a seriously algorithmic proposal we'd consider it. code would be produced but the real value would be the research they did.. |

16:25.26 | LetterRip_ | and the rest of the applicant pool |
16:25.47 | srajbr | i got ur point |

16:35.23 | jall | i'm just thinking about diversity aloud, really. a ton of people out there want to make original contributions to open source that might not solely be measured by number of lines of code produced. |
16:35.26 | ojwb | ajuonline: yes, the code is the focus of the thing |
16:35.47 | ojwb | jall: and they're most welcome to, but the ground rules here are that it is coding |
16:35.50 | jall | well it isn't called 'summer of code' for nothing, but still. |
16:36.02 | ajuonline | one of the program goals, get more code written, |
16:36.13 | jall | this is why i never applied when i was a phd student. i wanted to do something meaningful ;) |
16:36.33 | ojwb | and you've done that and are now here? |
16:36.35 | LetterRip_ | NickLee allocations happen after ratings |
16:36.39 | ajuonline | and you imply, gsoc projects arent meaningful? :P |
16:36.42 | LetterRip_ | afaik |
16:36.48 | ojwb | LetterRip_: they do |
16:37.08 | ojwb | !slots |
16:37.08 | socinfo | "slots" is Slots are allocated after student proposals are all submitted. The final count of slots are unknown until the accepted students are announced. Please see http://socghop.appspot.com/document/show/program/google/gsoc2009/studentallocations for further information on how slots are allocated. |
16:37.12 | ojwb | there! |
16:37.13 | LetterRip_ | NickLee if an organization was accepted previously you can see how many they got last year |
16:37.14 | WinterMute | there should be a summer of documentation :p |
16:37.25 | mt | jall: I guess coding for some is the most intimidating kind of contribution to open-source projects. |
16:37.35 | mt | So that's probably why the focus is on code |
16:37.41 | WinterMute | open source has a reputation for horrid manuals |
16:37.45 | LetterRip_ | though some times it varies a huge amount |
16:38.01 | LetterRip_ | WinterMute: for Blender we have done our own 'SummerOfDocumentation' |

17:35.23 | dogmeat | can I still put in a project for a Mentoring Org? |
17:35.37 | anth_x | no. that deadline is long past. |
17:35.48 | micahcowan | dogmeat, I'm not sure I understand what you mean. |
17:36.06 | micahcowan | If you mean, is it too late to add a project to an org's ideas list, then no. |

17:36.26 | Catfish_Man | there. Got it short enough |
17:36.46 | hypa7ia | ajuonline: new job is awesome :) |
17:36.47 | dogmeat | micahcowan, when is too late? |
17:36.49 | ajuonline | ChosenOne: thanks. so no mysql. blah |
17:37.04 | ChosenOne | :) |
17:37.29 | dogmeat | it looks like 29th? |
17:37.33 | anth_x | dogmeat: sorry, i misunderstood. i thought you were asking about submitting an application for a new mentoring org. my bad. |
17:37.59 | ajuonline | tries pgsql |
17:38.10 | micahcowan | dogmeat, well you can add ideas to the ideas page right up until student application period is over. Don't forget students are allowed to propose ideas themselves, or things that aren't on the ideas list, so... |

17:39.28 | micahcowan | dogmeat, I'd say April 9. |
17:39.50 | micahcowan | The ideas list doesn't have to be "final" before students submit proposals based on it, though obviously if you want it to get attention, it should be. |
17:40.25 | micahcowan | (you could still add things to an ideas list after April 9, but there'd be little point, since applications are in.) |

20:32.37 | ChosenOne | no offense, but what kind of geeks are you then? :D |
20:32.42 | downeym | gsoc is a great way to get introduced to open source stuff |
20:33.09 | Scriptor | it does have the intro phase before they start coding for it |
20:33.37 | proudfoot | a friend of mine was a mentor in a program here, and told me to try it out. |
20:33.52 | proudfoot | new is, I've used open source apps, sometimes edited them, never submitted any commits |
20:34.10 | mt | ChosenOne: Since gsoc's goal is to attract new blood to the open-source community, it's probably natural for a lot of the applicants to be new to open source I guess. :) |
20:34.37 | ChosenOne | yeh, just being tongue in cheek ;) |
20:35.11 | proudfoot | I'm a compsci major, so, I dunno. |

21:56.49 | Dark_Shikari | since 2x the students doesn't mean 2x the good students, it just means a huge batch of people who suck |

21:57.25 | Dark_Shikari | lol |
21:57.37 | Dark_Shikari | I like automated methods for filtering out gems |
21:57.49 | Dark_Shikari | like "qualification tasks so hard that nobody but gems bother" |
21:58.01 | Catfish_Man | that does seem to be working pretty decently |
21:58.14 | Dark_Shikari | it also filters out people looking for easy projects |
21:58.31 | Dark_Shikari | people say "your projects are too hard, you'll get fewer applicants" |
21:58.36 | Dark_Shikari | I say "good, I didn't want them anyways" |

21:59.13 | Catfish_Man | unrelated, but man things get easier when you don't fight the framework. I just figured out how I'm *supposed* to be using this and it's like half as long and faster |

22:30.40 | drt24 | it worked, but the other irc clients I hav used are better |
22:30.43 | AshishG | drt24: luckily it's cross platform, you if you could describe what you like about it, i might just try it out |
22:30.44 | Catfish_Man | drt24: I'm still convinced that's a symptom of insufficiently advanced gui design |
22:30.46 | Catfish_Man | not an inherent problem |
22:30.55 | Catfish_Man | but perhaps I'm wrong :) |
22:30.58 | Catfish_Man | uses Adium for irc |

22:31.20 | drt24 | I have irssi running inside a screen session on a server. So I can connect to it from anywhere and it can log everything :-) |
22:31.22 | AshishG | wonders how many Mac users are here |
22:32.00 | AshishG | drt24: that's convenient |
22:32.08 | drt24 | indeed |
22:32.48 | micahcowan | That's what I would be doing if I had a server hosted with folks that didn't disallow IRC traffic of any kind. |
22:32.55 | micahcowan | Except I might be using tmux rather than screen. |

22:34.23 | micahcowan | Depends on the people. I suspect you'll find a lot of Ubuntu (me) and Fedora Core users on here, in addition to various other things. |
22:34.28 | micahcowan | And yeah, Windows users. |

22:34.59 | drt24 | has previously been reduced to CGI:IRC as a result of evil network admins, and then that got blocked and I stopped using irc until I got to uni |
22:35.10 | micahcowan | A few non-Linux-based *NIXes, too. |
22:35.45 | AshishG | CGI:IRC helps bypass proxies in some cases? |
22:35.58 | AshishG | ah! i see |
22:36.11 | AshishG | the previous one was for micahcowan |
22:38.26 | AshishG | drt24: how did CGI:IRC help bypass restrictions? |
22:38.30 | AshishG | i have a restriction on ports |
22:38.36 | AshishG | only 80 and 443 |
22:38.39 | drt24 | it is a web based interface |
22:38.49 | drt24 | and so I could access it over port 80 |

22:39.16 | drt24 | but these days I have shell on lots of different servers so I could use corkscrew and ssh forwarding to get around evilness of that sort |
22:39.49 | AshishG | "evilness" :D |
22:40.34 | drt24 | ;-) |
