10:43.07borax12hello there
10:43.57borax12i wanted to know where exactly do we need to discuss the application ideas with mentoring organisations
10:43.59borax12?

10:52.52tomprinceborax12: On whatever the prefered channel of communication is for the given org. It could be mail, oor irc, or web fora.
10:53.22borax12ok.and one more thing ,do i need to also start hunting down the organisation or else wait for the list to come out
10:53.23borax12?
10:53.36borax12and then filter out the org as per my field of interest
10:53.48tomprinceIt doesn't hurt to get involved early.
10:54.12borax12but  how would i know which org would be participating?
10:55.49tomprinceWell, you can see what org particiapted last year, and some indication of those that are applying this year.

10:56.45tomprinceAnd, in any case, getting involved now, even if the org doesn't end up getting selected is a good thing.
10:57.24anantzoidCan I know which organizations have applied till now?
10:58.35tomprinceI don't think there is a list of orgs that have applied, but most orgs will have an idea page, and probably some indication that they will be applying.
10:59.18borax12where on the gsoc 2011 list or on their own websites and forums?
10:59.50tomprinceOn their own sites.
11:00.30tomprinceBut you get pointers to all the orgs that participated last year (and many are likely applying again) from the gsoc site.
11:00.45borax12yeah thats true indeed
11:00.58borax12and yeah there was thing that was lurking in my mind
11:01.00borax12and that is
11:01.11borax12how do i get myself involved with a project
11:01.43borax12like i am an android app developer and basically havent had any chance of doing any system programming
11:01.52borax12so its like do i still stand a chance
11:01.54borax12?

11:03.11borax12thanks for the link
11:03.30borax12well that said it all sums up to a exploartion beforehand
11:04.15borax12but i guess i will be rather waiting for the ideas list to come
11:04.37borax12coz suggesting a project on my own would not be beneficial as of now

15:50.45lessthanoptimalthe application form requires a backup person, which implies at least two people
15:51.44|Kev|It seems unlikely.
15:52.13chrisoelmuelleri'd suggest looking for an umbrella org that fits your project instead

15:52.40lessthanoptimalhmm that's an idea I haven't thought of
15:52.43Ivanoviclessthanoptimal: the project applying has to be "established" and "known to work"
15:53.01Ivanovicso going for an umbrella is the best approach since you tend to not have those two required things with "one person projects"

17:54.21dhaunfindow: did you see the student guide yet? if not, go and read it :)
17:54.26meflinwell at this time there are no organizations ... you can look at last years list and get an idea ... also I would start by asking yourself what you are intersted in
17:54.33meflinthis also
17:55.06findowI have read the guidelines on GSOC's website.

19:32.06Eli_Are organizations able to provide additional funding to students over the 5000 they receive from google?
19:33.17meflinup to the org ..
19:33.30meflinI personaly find the question itself offensive
19:33.47Eli_How so?
19:34.23meflinI mentor and admin for $0 realy what more do you want?
19:35.36Eli_In the case that we wanted to provide the opportunity for the student to relocate for the summer and work a fair amount, I would want the student to get paid more than just 5k
19:35.37ThomasWaldmannand at other places you have to pay $5000 to learn that much :D
19:35.57meflinthere is no reason to relocate to provide "more"
19:36.24Eli_relocation would definitely provide more of an experience...
19:36.38meflinno it wouldn't
19:36.56Eli_:)
19:37.11meflinworking with a OSS comunitie its a given that you are working in TZ across time zones
19:38.02dhaunEli_: it's a bit odd, but not against the rules (at least by my understanding) - Google will pay the $5000, the rest would be up to you
19:40.27meflinponders how to relocate one of his last year students ( this year a mentor ) across continents
19:40.41Eli_meflin, sure, I understand that and totally agree. I guess there is a line about GSOC in terms of just contributing a bit to an open source project, and an internship like opportunity to work on an open source project
19:41.11meflinthat student was _in_ session for GSOC
19:42.08Eli_?
19:42.22meflincompleted project, expanded projeect , finished all that and graduated while taking classes at the same time
19:42.31meflinthis year is a mentor
19:42.52meflinnot everyone in the world is "off" from uni
19:43.35Eli_That's true, but it could be an option we provide, obviously not a requirement for GSOC
19:43.39meflinhow exactlly do you propose to get visa's for you students?
19:44.23meflinoption? sure anyone intersted we have an ovfice and a flat if you dont have anyting to do? cool

19:46.28meflinoss wise I think its better or irc/email the guy down the block and get him used to world wide dev
19:48.34meflinobviously I have some strong opinions on this matter ;)
19:48.52Eli_Sure, from an OSS perspective, but from a personal growth perspective, getting a sudo internship and being able to work at facebook (we aren't facebook, just using it as an example) for the summer while working entirely on an open source project
19:49.08Eli_seems like it would be a pretty cool thing as well

19:52.16meflinheh well I think learning to talk past TZ's and lang's is a very very good thing :)
19:52.37dfightertbh if anything people should get used to telecommuting
19:52.40dfighternot the other way around
19:52.49dfighterespecially when producing virtual goods
19:53.00dfightercheaper for the company ( no need for an office for the workers )
19:53.17dfighterand actually it's a trend nowadays
19:53.26dfighterso what you are proposing Eli_ sounds kinda backwards to me
19:53.46meflinwell my opinion on this mater is working on oss ( my non-gsoc project ) the main movers and shakers are in france and germany ( I'm in the usa )
19:53.48dfighterI'm sure it's exciting for some people, but I find working from home a lot better
19:54.22dfighterthis way I am not taken from the environment I am used to and my personal relationships ( that are here where I live obviously )
19:54.26meflinmy GSOC project has many TZ's as well
19:54.30meflinand countries
19:56.15meflinI wouldn't mind being put up for a month or so by .. ANY of my out of country dev's any project :)
19:56.23dfighterofc
19:56.27dfighterbut that's vacation, not work :P
19:56.33meflinmostly so I could eat my way around the world
19:56.36meflinexactly :D
19:56.54dfighterso sure if they have the funds for it, offer a 2 week vacation or something in the end of the program
19:57.17dfighterfor that it's easier to get the visa too

19:59.30Eli_I totally agree with the whole telecommuting thing, it's fantastic, and makes the programming experience awesome. I feel like if the student had the opportunity to go to Google for the summer and work at the HQ in mountain view, get paid 17k and work full time on the open source project and meet other googlers and be around that area, it would be a greater opportunity than to work remotely...
19:59.31Eli_...and get the skill of learning how to work remotely.

20:33.04gevaertsThat's not entirely true of course, but such stats are still misleading
20:33.19gevaertsThere weren't *anywhere* near 5539 acceptable proposals
20:33.26meflinheh well most of _our_ rejects and just crazy stuff
20:33.53meflinlike ppl who dont read our main page and have 1 a bad proposal and 2 its off topic
20:34.03meflin60% last year where those
20:34.53meem1029So basically if you are a competent student and put effort into your proposal you'll be fine?
20:35.04meflinits actually easier to to point out a lame proposal then define a great one
20:35.29meflinperhaps
20:35.44meflinthe trick is "competent"

20:36.32gevaertsIt also depends a bit on the organisation. Some of them are much more popular than others, which means they'll have to reject some good proposals

21:16.00meflinrun screening is perhaps best put as this .. lets make a linux kernel drive ( didn't read or page !) can't talk about evn, C, how to get into mainline

21:17.19cinemascop89oh, right
21:17.58meflinlast year out paper submits where 3 good 7 bad
21:18.25meflin1 good on interview whas hopeless . one bad was intersting
21:19.06cinemascop89so you interview everyone no matter how bad it proposal was?
21:19.30meflinyes ( as new top admin not so sure this year lets see how many we git if accepted )
21:20.19meflinlast year a BAD submission was our 3rd guy... exceeded expectations
21:20.45meflinsloging thourgh 1 hour intervies does .. realy sucks tho
21:21.33meflinas a small org ir helps tho ..
21:22.12meflinwe only want ppl that we think are 75% sucess and we are even willlling to switch tracks for the canidate that mpressees
21:22.57cinemascop89thats nice..
21:23.19cinemascop89hope every organization i submit application are that way...
21:23.26meflinwell small is easyer in a way
21:23.32cinemascop89i knda suck at writing...
21:24.10kain88meflin: what organization are you working for?
21:24.16meflinkernel.org
21:24.34meflinextra-weird :D
21:25.37meflinbesides its not abnormal for ppl to misunderstand my org here .. GSOC-MS almost everyoine has no Idea what I do :P
21:27.16meflinthe thing is .. writing a good email thingy doesn't maek you a good student
21:27.43billybobthen is it more import to sell the idea clearly?

21:30.26ojwbwould certainly agree not to be put off by the accepted:submitted ratios
21:31.40cinemascop89ojwb: i dont know, actually im very optimistic about them..
21:32.18meflinthe submisons make me eant to die
21:32.30ojwbthere's a lot of total junk (one line proposals, off-topic proposals presumably sent to 20 orgs, just a cut and paste from the ideas list and/or generic bio)

21:33.42meflinojwb: we get 2 page off topics :P
21:34.57meflinand its not the ratio that botthers me
21:36.23meflinhmm actualy the most bothering is the good proposal in email . that when you interview is well scarrsy

21:39.22meflinknowing the lang isn't as much IMO as knowing the code base and even less being able to thin aoutside the box ( like when you grill )

21:41.53kain88what do you mean by knowing the code base. something as the linux kernel is far to complex to get to know well in a few days
21:42.20cinemascop89hey, btw, is there any place when i can see the organizations that applyied so far?
21:42.40gevaertsno
21:42.47mlankhorstjust ask the organizations you want to work with if they applied
21:42.47meflinkai: you just make yourself a poster child ::)
