18:39.24krishnaghchaitanhey! there is a huge misconception i have please help me out of it! will we have to give our own ideas so that mentoring organizations will mentor us or the organizations themselves give coding projects so that we will select and do them??
18:39.41cdesaikrishnaghchaitan: the former.
18:40.54PulkoMandykrishnaghchaitan: are you asking about GSOC or GCI?
18:41.02krishnaghchaitanthanks cdesai
18:41.02VarunAgwkrishnaghchaitan, Mentoring org. also have a idea page. You can choose idea from that page too
18:41.06ollyum, that's not really true for either
18:41.39VarunAgwPulkoMandy, He is talking about GSoC
18:41.51krishnaghchaitan@PulkoMandy i am asking about GSOC
18:41.56ollyyeah, assuming you're asking about gsoc, you have to write a project proposal, but it can be based either on an idea from the org's list, or one of your own
18:42.12ollybut if it's your own idea, discuss it with the org first
18:42.17ollysome of the best ideas come from students

18:43.16VarunAgwI have an idea for melange for GSoC 2015. "Replace IRC with skype" ;)
18:43.39ollyshudders
18:45.43YashM_lol no
18:45.55ollyPulkoMandy: that's not necessarily true
18:46.24ollywe've had a few very successful student proposed projects
18:46.33ollythings we just hadn't thought of
18:46.35*** join/#gsoc techsayan (~techsayan@111.93.204.250)
18:46.51PulkoMandyyes, I'm not saying it can't work (I was such a student myself, even)
18:47.21PulkoMandybut the idea has to match what the org need, so to achieve this the student must know the org rather well, I think
18:47.24ollythe ones which don't work are things like trying to crowbar some idea into the closest org they can find, or don't appreciate the existing codebase they need to build on, etc

20:34.50schranzershould i propose to be an "organisation" or should i find an open source organisation to be a mentor for, or ... ?

23:21.33SirCmpwnthanks, teepee
23:21.57teepeebut you can still ask that when applying next year and create one :)
23:22.21SirCmpwnwell, we have a mailing list, but it's dusty and empty
23:22.38SirCmpwnit's just there in case someone isn't comfortable with github
23:23.29valoriesince it isn't free software, presumably that is a lot
23:25.20teepeewell, git is opensource and that's the part that matters

23:31.26valorieand lots of MLs... can't imagine life without mail lists, but then I'm old
23:31.43SirCmpwnI don't mind mailing lists but they aren't as easy to get into

23:34.16valorietext is low-bandwidth
23:34.17SirCmpwnnot for a noob
23:34.35valorieanything on web is only for people with good bandwidth
23:34.36SirCmpwnthe average person has to figure out how to get gmail to send plaintext email and not screw it up
23:34.50SirCmpwnand getting into the mailing list culture takes time
23:35.10valoriesure, but isn't that true for ALL cultures?
23:35.24valorieincluding forums, github, discourse, or whatever you use?
23:35.46SirCmpwnwell, there are some intricacies that aren't obvious, like top posting
23:35.54SirCmpwnor exactly how to format your patches
23:36.00SirCmpwnI know it took me a little while to get comfortable
23:36.44valorieI think we all have the same goal: make it easy for the new contributor
23:36.50valoriebut there is no magic for that
23:36.59SirCmpwnI dunno
23:36.59valorieexcept one human helping another
23:37.16SirCmpwngithub is the new hotness, I think it's more likely for joe coder to be familiar with it than with mailing lists these days
23:37.23valoriesure
23:37.31SirCmpwngetting people into an IRC channel to receive help is tough, too
23:37.35valorieand it isn't opensource, and it is high-bandwidth
23:37.43SirCmpwndrive-by IRC is really frustratingly common
23:37.47valorieyes
23:37.52valoriesoooooo common
23:50.28SirCmpwnvalorie: I guess it's worse considering that the project I oversee can be pretty hard to get into
23:50.46SirCmpwnwe had to write our own toolchain so the prerequisites involve compiling and installing something like 5 tools
23:50.57valoriewell, I think all FOSS wants to be open
23:51.08valoriebut for various reasons, is rather hard
23:51.41valoriegiven the nature of the humans who want to do FOSS, I don't see that changing much
23:52.25valoriebut I don't give up trying various strategies to upon up to *everyone* -- because we are missing the women, missing the Africans, missing the poor
23:53.14SirCmpwnthis discussion has prompted me to make a proper mailing list and get people using it, though
23:53.24SirCmpwnI've been wanting a better ML for a while
23:56.09valorieI've loved mail lists since before the internet
23:56.28valorienewsgroups and MLs were my way into the online world
23:56.36valoriebefore browsers
23:56.38SirCmpwnI think they would be a good way to encourage retention if the bulk of the discussion happened there
23:56.49SirCmpwnnothing like getting emails about a project all the time to remind you to stay involved ;)

23:57.31SirCmpwnslightly (more like entirely) off topic: does anyone here know of a good place to find gratis design work for open source projects?
23:58.23SirCmpwnthe logo for this project is old and ugly as hell and none of the core contributors can design their way out of a box
23:58.44SirCmpwnI'm doing a general clean-up to prep for GSOC and it may be a good time to fix that
