19:08.13EunsooI'm an F-1 in US, and cannot qualify for CPT this summer
19:08.31Eunsooand I'm trying to travel to my home country for summer vacation
19:08.52EunsooI think it would be around May 14~Aug 20
19:09.04Eunsooam I eligible to participate in this case?
19:09.26EunsooI'm confused when looking up some docs for 2011
19:09.50carolsEunsoo: so you're not going to be in the US basically for all of the GSoC term?
19:10.16Eunsooeh, what do you exactly mean by the term?

19:10.43carolsEunsoo: the time when gsoc is happening. when students are coding with their projects.
19:11.05Eunsoocould  you give an exact timeline for it?
19:11.30carolsEunsoo: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2012
19:12.54Eunsooso you mean work eligibility only applies for coding, which is from may 21 to august 20 (pencils down date)?
19:13.24carolsEunsoo: no, i'm asking you. are you going to be in your home country for the entirety of gsoc?
19:13.28EunsooI was confused because some docs say "all activities shouldn't be done in the US" and another say it's only for coding

19:16.59EunsooIf the work means coding, and that implies working from May 21 to August 20, then yes.
19:17.19carolsEunsoo: and are you eligible to legally work in that country for the time you'll be there?
19:17.33EunsooYeah I'm a citizen of that country
19:17.42carolsEunsoo: great, then you're eligible.
19:18.47EunsooThanks. So to recap, work eligibility is only required for coding period (up to pencils down date), is that correct?
19:19.18carolsEunsoo: considering that's the time in which you are working, yes.

19:21.49carolsr172: depends on what the topic is.
19:22.07r172help related to GSOC topic.
19:22.21carolsr172: why don't yo task your question and we'll see if we can provide some guidance.

19:23.00*** join/#gsoc Froyo (~jay@115.248.130.148)
19:23.23r172I am working of topic based on image processing which involves OpenCV and .NET framework, for Windows based OSs and can be used on linux based platforms.
19:23.41r172is there any scope for it?
19:23.49r172I am damn scared!
19:24.11carolsr172: you mean you want to propose this topic to a participating org in gsoc (which, by the way haven't been chosen yet) to work on?
19:24.34r172yeap...
19:24.48carolsr172: sure, you should speak to the org you want to work with and propose it.
19:25.36*** join/#gsoc ieugen (~ieugen@188.25.127.238)
19:26.05r172regarding the topic, is it obligatory that the project should be based on improvements on current systems?
19:26.24r172my project is based on new system though.
19:26.42Catfish_Manr172: generally speaking, gsoc isn't for creating new projects
19:26.52Catfish_Manit's about getting students involved in existing open source organizations
19:27.31r172so you mean I should work on some existing projects?
19:28.05Catfish_Manr172: if you participate, you'll be submitting a proposal to the mentors from a participating organization
19:28.17Catfish_Man(assuming you're participating as as student)
19:28.34Catfish_Manif they feel that it's not something relevant to what their organization does, or not something they can mentor, they're probably not going to accept it
19:28.39r172or maybe bind my project into existing feature in any open source project
19:29.38r172I am clueless now :(
19:30.53carolsr172: i would advise you wait until orgs are chosen, find the one you want to work with, and speak to them directly. keep an open mind about what you'll be working on and go from there.
19:31.13*** join/#gsoc kaushikfrnd (~chatzilla@180.215.80.81)
19:31.59r172thanks carol, actually I am kind of afraid regarding this, whether it will be accepted or not, and even regarding the Open Source thing.

19:32.30carolsr172: i think you'll find that the orgs that participate in gsoc are very accepting. that's why we choose them.

19:33.26carolsgreat :-)
19:34.22r172one more thing, my project is regarding image processing and is and application, what you think about it?
19:34.33r172an application*
19:35.15carolsr172: i don't have any opinion about it whatsoever. you speak to the org you want to work with and let them know your skills and what you like to work on and go from there.
19:35.38JordiGHr172: Do you think OpenCV would accept your code into their source tree(s)?
19:36.12r172well thanks carol for your replies!!!
19:36.25r172had some hopes!!

19:37.34r172I don't know, as i said i am totally clueless about it, what you think?
19:38.11r172JordiGH: ?
19:38.15JordiGHI don't know. I guess you'll have to ask them. But generally the code is something that will go into improving OpenCV itself.
19:38.29JordiGHIf you wrote some other project that happens to use OpenCV, that might not qualify.
19:38.31JordiGHBut ask them.

19:39.03r172okay, as you say
19:39.18r172are you trying for GSOC this year?
19:39.26JordiGHOr some other org. GSoC work should generally be of general interest, from what I gather. Not to sponsor personal projects of limited general interest.
19:39.33JordiGHYes, I am.
19:40.04r172thats good, have you participated previously?
19:40.08JordiGHYes, last year.
