00:09.26 | faceface | hi |
00:09.50 | faceface | can I make a mailing list and try to get student applicants to start working together? |
00:10.03 | faceface | (to answer each others questions) |
00:10.26 | faceface | I feel less like a mentor and more like an enabler... |
00:10.26 | rraf | faceface: yep, other projects have done so :) |
00:10.50 | faceface | increasingly I think I'm in the wrong place, the idea is to foster community coding right? |
00:11.14 | faceface | I'm not really a part of the community, just very loosly |
00:11.21 | rraf | exchange of ideas |
00:11.25 | *** join/#gsoc LeoBH (~LeoBH@94-195-214-63.zone9.bethere.co.uk) |
00:11.41 | rraf | you can't force them to work together but you can provide an environment for them to do so |
00:12.04 | topfs2 | faceface, thats probably a good idea, last year I was with beagle and they had a special gsoc irc first and slowly moved all discussion to the normal channel, was quite a good idea IMO |
00:12.08 | faceface | rraf: sure, I mean, they can't all get accepted... |
00:12.08 | topfs2 | helped ease into the community |
00:12.25 | faceface | topfs2: beagle? |
00:12.49 | topfs2 | beagleboard |
00:12.50 | rraf | it's easier for newcommers to write on a gsoc list than the development mailing list |
00:13.00 | faceface | rraf: right |
00:13.25 | faceface | but the ideas I posted don't really belong there either... I guess I got carried away on the wiki |
00:13.38 | faceface | I'm guessing I won't get a slot within the org |
00:13.46 | faceface | but I feel bad for the students writing to me |
00:14.11 | faceface | goes to talk to his spiritual mentor in the organization proper... |
00:14.33 | rraf | you should speak with the organization admin he might allow you to mentor that idea if you got so many requests for it |
00:15.18 | rraf | given that you have the knowledge to do so |
00:17.35 | faceface | I'm worried the ideas are too speculative, not grounded, and not in line with the organizations core aims |
00:18.18 | faceface | I can advise, I have some knowledge and experience, but I'm not sure I could do the project myself |
00:18.49 | rraf | communication is the key, speak with the org |

00:55.53 | tty1 | neither, as a project/org |
00:55.53 | hypatia | tty1: and my "umbrella corps" do you mean participating organizations? |
00:56.02 | hypatia | tty1: the deadline was like 3 weeks ago |
00:56.18 | tty1 | hypatia, i mean a aprticipating orginization which allows other projects to participate in GSoC through them |
00:56.56 | hypatia | tty1: ah, gotcha... i'm unfamilar with that, sorry |

00:59.48 | tty1 | well i dont so much need a list as i do more information on the GSoC guildines regarding umbrella orgs |
01:00.30 | tty1 | hypatia, i was curious just how far it can go (can someone make an umbrella corp just for GSoC for example as a representation of many projects in a particular field but otherwise doesnt exist outside of GSoC except as individual projects) |
01:01.03 | hypatia | tty1: if they can't they can't at this point - org applications are long over. |

01:01.13 | hypatia | tty1: but i haven't heard of that happening at all, fwiw |
01:01.34 | tty1 | hypatia, yea i know that i was thinking forward to next year and just wnated more information ont he topic is all |
01:01.47 | hypatia | nods |
01:02.17 | hypatia | well, hopefully someone who knows will see your query :) |
01:02.32 | hypatia | alternately, it may be more productive to mail the list, or mail carols directly |
01:02.41 | dberkholz | tty1: well, one org could apply and claim to be an umbrella for many of them |
01:02.42 | tty1 | hypatia, like this year we came close to being that indirectly.. we are our own org, but we hav several projects ont he ideas page with mentors from other projects outside of our own, specifically ont he topiuc of integrating their project with ours.. so in a sense we were an umbrella for many projects int he AI field this year |
01:02.55 | tty1 | hypatia, so im considering if it may be worthwhile to play that up next year |
01:03.10 | tty1 | hypatia, true she did say to email her if i had more questions |
01:03.19 | hypatia | having mentors working on integrating 3rd-party sw doesn't exactly make you an umbrella org, i don't think |
01:03.27 | hypatia | but, it's not my call :) |
01:03.28 | dberkholz | for x.org, we act as an umbrella for related projects that aren't actually "under" x.org |
01:04.46 | tty1 | hypatia, yea but those mentors were the founders of the projects for which we are integrating, and the unique nature of our project makes it that working on 3rd-party apps directly effects our app (our framework essentially unifies 3rd-party libraries under a single framework) |
01:04.53 | tty1 | hypatia, so we could expand on that idea next year |
01:06.11 | hypatia | tty1: i have no idea if that will be useful or not. ask the folks who run gsoc. i'm just another org admin. |
01:06.27 | tty1 | hypatia, which org may i ask? |

09:05.29 | thebolt | same with me, but quite indirectly |
09:05.47 | bobbens | Maru_: if you can get an interesting intership it is probably betetr than gsoc imho |
09:05.57 | bobbens | but for getting an intership "for the hell of it", gsoc is probably better :) |
09:06.03 | |Kev| | I think quite the opposite, as it happens :) |

09:06.06 | Maru_ | bobbens: any reason? |
09:06.07 | |Kev| | As I say, depends on your field. |
09:06.39 | bobbens | Maru_: well you just have to think what can help you more, an interesting internship closely related to your field at a reputable center is probably better than gsoc |

09:29.46 | bobbens | you can't really "solve" an underactuated system, just propose non-linear control rules and how to deal with the dynamics |
09:29.54 | bobbens | but I'd consider quadrotors pretty much solved :) |
09:30.05 | thebolt | i mean solved in the sense "there is a best way to do it and everyone agrees it is the best way" |
09:30.25 | bobbens | thebolt: that's a utopia, everyone thinks the best way is the one that has to do with their research :P |
09:30.29 | thebolt | still haven't begun designing the control system (still at the state estimation phase) |
09:31.03 | bobbens | but for the control rules, I more or less see always the sames |
09:31.11 | bobbens | they map yaw, pitch, roll and z directly |
09:31.22 | bobbens | for controlling x and y there's generally more opinions |

14:44.23 | rbl | but licking only 1 org sounds risky |
14:44.34 | rbl | picking* |
14:44.51 | rbl | i think selecting 2-3 is better |
14:45.13 | mmlevitt | i think student guide says diversification, multiple applications, and high quality apps lead to good gsoc students. |
14:45.28 | SukhE | rbl: only if you can maintain the quality of your application(s). |
14:45.29 | Nightrose | as long as you don't overdo it yes |
14:45.50 | dberkholz | 2-3 is a pretty reasonable number. i've never seen anyone apply for more than 5 and have them actually be good |

14:46.43 | |Kev| | rbl: Same as any other job, you'll just have to research :) |
14:46.54 | SukhE | rbl: You should be able to say to yourself, 'I want to work with them, they are awesome.' |
14:47.00 | gevaerts | rbl: surely that's not more difficult than choosing one? :) |
14:47.00 | ojwb | the tags in the list of orgs are a good starting place |
14:47.15 | pygi | dberkholz: I did 10! |
14:47.16 | pygi | once :D |
14:47.22 | pygi | I'd say none were good tho :D |
14:47.32 | mmlevitt | I am very interested in my gsoc mentors-2-B! |
14:47.59 | dberkholz | start with orgs you've heard of, and orgs with relevant tags, then narrow it down to a few |
14:48.04 | |Kev| | mmlevitt: Your 'mentors to be' will greatly appreciate you not using textspeak. |
14:48.16 | rbl | gevaerts : :D |
14:48.25 | mmlevitt | honestly, I have 1 main mentor that I am pursuing and a plan B |
14:48.47 | mmlevitt | oh? textspeak is lol, brb, etc? |
14:49.14 | brik | mmlevitt: "2 b" |
14:49.17 | gevaerts | mmlevitt: and '2' for 'to' or 'too', 'u', 'ur', ... |
14:49.18 | rbl | where do i have brighter chances of getting in?? i mean any such org r there? |
14:49.19 | |Kev| | Replacing words with numbers, using 'b' instead of 'be' etc. |
14:49.27 | |Kev| | !odds |
14:49.27 | socinfo | |Kev|: "odds" is Odds, chances or probability really do not come into play for GSoC. Rambling off numbers or asking What are the odds of getting accepted... is really quite useless as one's acceptance is not dictated by luck or numbers, but by the quality of your proposal and your skills instead. |

16:04.11 | socinfo | sfb: "anyone" is Instead of looking for mentors from specific projects here, you will likely get much better results by speaking to that mentoring organization themselves. Try searching for the org's contact info or even just try a /join #<mentoring org here> |
16:04.20 | Talad | any idea when the system will allow mentors to register? |
16:04.22 | Talad | "We have temporarily disabled the creation of new requests and invites in preparation of the launch of the new UI for Melange later this week." |
16:04.25 | Talad | I still get this message |

20:41.19 | nickbarnesccf | I figure this has to be OK because a lot of 'organisations' |
20:41.24 | nickbarnesccf | are scattered individuals. |
20:41.58 | nickbarnesccf | e.g. I could mentor a Bugzilla project, even though I have no formal connection with bugzilla.org. |

22:14.52 | gevaerts | I'd say if you propose a project that you can do with only need 20 hours per week, and you carefully avoid mentioning this during the selection process, you're being dishonest |

22:15.50 | kotomart | Ophiuchi: thanks |
22:16.26 | mmadia | 'own project' as in working alone (and not in a group), but it is possible for a mentoring organization to have (2) students working independently on the same project/idea/goal. |
22:16.51 | Ophiuchi | gevaerts: with the difficulty in planning programming time even seasoned professionals have, if your project is not entirely trivial planning for something that you expect to be able to do in half the time and plan for "and if there's time left" tasks otherwise is sane, not dishonest |
22:17.28 | gevaerts | Ophiuchi: sorry, I forgot to add "And you also sneakily avoid to add any 'and if there's time left' bits" :) |
22:18.21 | |Kev| | Ophiuchi: "If there's time left" Is part of the project. |

22:26.31 | byran | Oops. Sorry for interrupting... |
22:27.05 | |Kev| | byran: Treating it as a full time job is recommended. So 40 hours a week with no other major commitments. (e.g. saying "Well, I have 80 waking hours a week, so I can do two 40 hour jobs is not sensible) |
22:27.26 | byran | Ok. Should I negotiate more time off? |

22:28.19 | cbh2000 | Yes. But neither am I. :) |
22:28.48 | |Kev| | A couple of days a week on another job you'll *probably* be able to manage - although you'll be working more than the average person. |
22:29.16 | cbh2000 | So, do you suppose it is even worth applying with 40 hours a week? |
22:29.28 | |Kev| | You're (probably) learning a number of new things during GSoC, as well as doing challenging work. You need to be fresh for this. |
22:29.42 | |Kev| | 40 hours a week for GSoC is fine - the problem is what else you have on outside those hours. |
22:29.53 | |Kev| | 40 hours a week assuming you're spending the usual amount of time resting is fine. |

23:08.13 | Michitux | mjohnst: you can still meet your mentor face to face. sometimes there are hackfests and if you are living near your mentor there is probably no problem with meeting him... |
23:08.30 | mjohnst | cool |

23:09.13 | Michitux | but I don't think that the condition "living near the mentor" is fulfilled in a lot of cases |

23:10.01 | mjohnst | yeah. I live just south of palo alto, so I was hoping that a lot of the organizations would have some base in the area |
23:11.03 | thiago_home | there are probably user and developer groups |
23:11.30 | thiago_home | if you want to meet your mentor, you'll probably have to travel |

23:12.02 | mjohnst | is contact with the mentor usually done via VOIP or video conferencing? or IRC |
23:12.08 | mjohnst | or just email |
23:12.57 | thiago_home | I preferred email and IRC when I was a mentor |
23:13.20 | thiago_home | VoIP isn't very good when trying to talk technical terms to a non-native speaker |
23:14.11 | thiago_home | sometimes, writing is better |

23:22.51 | lgadmin | Our project has had a presumed student approach us who is a plagiarist (therefore a scammer as far as I am concerned) based on his correspondence with us. What is the right way to alert other projects or GSoC about this? |
23:23.36 | carols | lgadmin: if you're on the mentors list you're welcome to email them to let them know. if your org is new and you're not on the list yet email me directly and I'll forward it along |
23:23.56 | schumaml | lgadmin: out of curiosity, did you confront the student with your findings? |
23:24.16 | lgadmin | No, I have not confronted the student about it. |
23:24.50 | lgadmin | It goes beyond plagiarism. |
23:25.22 | lgadmin | - not meaning to get too indignant about it. |
23:25.45 | lgadmin | You know, Google works two ways. :-) |
23:26.30 | lgadmin | Carols, indeed, we are new. I will email you. Thank you. |
23:26.38 | schumaml | you realize that other orgs won't necessarily take your word for it, right? i.e. there should be some prrof... |
23:26.46 | carols | lgadmin: you're welcome |
23:26.49 | schumaml | *proof |
23:26.59 | lgadmin | Easy. |
23:29.54 | brlcad | lgadmin: keep in mind that some younger students (unfortunately) may not even be aware that plagiarism is unacceptable |
23:30.12 | brlcad | some cultures and environments may even encourage it (by playing a blind eye to it) |
23:30.15 | scorche|sh | different cultures have different interpretations |
23:30.41 | lgadmin | It is not just the plagiarism it is the faking of expertise. |
23:30.49 | brlcad | don't know the circumstance of your situation, but something that is obviously immoral and perhaps even offensive to you might be completely normal to them |
23:30.55 | scorche|sh | it certainly is best to inform the student about your view on it, what he is doing, and what he should resist doing and then seeing what - ah...more than just a big ego? ;) |
23:31.40 | lgadmin | I am concerned that with behavior like this I will just be educating a scammer how to be more subtle and get further along. |
23:31.44 | lgadmin | Seriously. |
23:32.06 | brlcad | my roommate in college was a habitual liar, outright mean from my view but it was culturally acceptable for him from his upbringing as a means to get ahead |
23:33.28 | schumaml | we've been at "cultural acceptable" before |
23:33.44 | brlcad | I'm not sure I see how NOT talking to him and expressing your concern could be bad, especially if you tell him you've informed other orgs -- that's punitive in itself |
23:33.46 | PlainFlavored | This is a really broad question, but what qualifies one to be accepted as a student? Is it based on knowledge/merit, or experience, or both? |
23:33.55 | schumaml | "why is the deadline fixed? a deadline means that one week afterwards is still ok in my culture!!!" |
23:34.13 | brlcad | PlainFlavored: it completely depends on the org accepting you |
23:34.21 | brlcad | to most it's both I think |

23:35.24 | PlainFlavored | excellent, thank you |
23:37.15 | brlcad | schumaml: to play the devil's advocate, in the case of the deadline -- the schedule is defined (with a number!) regardless of how they interpret deadline, but there is no statement that I can find regarding moral behavior and plagiarism (at least in the faq) |
23:38.03 | scorche|sh | brlcad: well, it does say somewhere that the student should do their own work |

23:39.49 | lgadmin | carols, it is late for me. I will email you tomorrow. Thanks again. |
23:39.50 | brlcad | 1.7 in the Student Participant Agreement mentions plagiarism with respect to Google -- there's no requirement of behavior with respect to the orgs ;) |
23:40.00 | brlcad | scorche|sh: copy and pasting is hard work! :) |
