16:38.14sandmanxI wanted some help in beginning to contribute to opensource
16:38.53PulkoMandy!studentguide | sandmanx
16:38.53gsocbotsandmanx: "studentguide" is http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCStudentGuide/
16:39.06PulkoMandythis could be a good start unless you have more specific questions already
16:40.25bluesomewherewhat PulkoMandy said :o) happy to take more specific questions, but if you're just getting oriented that resource may be a good starting point
16:40.41*** join/#gsoc tonythomas (uid25971@wikimedia/-01tonythomas)
16:41.32sandmanxThanks @bluesomewhere and @PulkoMandy , but I have some specific questions.
16:41.42PulkoMandywell then, just ask! :)
16:43.19sandmanxSuppose I know a language, then at what extent of knowing that language I am capable enough to contribute? Like how do I gauge my knowledge is sufficient to contribute?
16:44.04PulkoMandy!goodenough
16:44.04gsocbotPulkoMandy: "goodenough" is Am I good enough to be a student for GSoC? http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCStudentGuide/ch003_am-i-good-enough/
16:44.13PulkoMandythis bot knows everything :)
16:44.42PulkoMandyanyway, it depends on the project, I'd say just try it
16:45.22PulkoMandyin a lot of projects (most of the ones I contribute to, at least), there are not a lot of people contributing and we'd really need more. So we'll make all the efforts to help newcomers get up to speed
16:45.33bluesomewhereright, just diving in and trying to contribute is often a good way to stretch yourself or master a skill you've been developing. if you hit a road block there are often people willing to help
16:45.52PulkoMandy(and there is no better way to learn than trying to write some code then refining it until it is good enough to be accepted in a project)
16:46.39aghislayou can also start by translating documentation, so that you will test the software more attentively than just by using it
16:47.50*** join/#gsoc Turl (~Turl@cyanogenmod/maintainer/Turl)
16:49.36sandmanxYou mean to say if I know even a little bit of python, I should dive straight in, and learn new things on the fly?
16:50.28bluesomewheresandmanx: opinions may differ, but I say yes! I've always learned the most by getting my hands dirty with real world work
16:51.07bluesomewhereaghisla's suggestion is a good one, too. working on documentation will give you intimate knowledge of a project and put you in a good position to do code contribution
16:53.48sandmanxOne last thing, any pro tip for choosing an organisation?
16:54.12*** join/#gsoc sushant94 (~sushant@128.199.153.79)
16:55.16PulkoMandythat will be faster than trying to figure things out all by yourself, yes
16:55.27PulkoMandywell, I think writing good docs is harder than writing good code
16:55.29PulkoMandytranslating may be a bit easier, never tried so I don't know
16:56.14aghislasandmanx: I would go for the ones that host GSoC and Code-in. Code-in tasks would also be ideal for beginners, even if you plan to take part to GSoC next year or soon.
16:56.50aghislathese orgs already identified tasks suitable for newcomers and have probably mentors at hand even outside of coding periods

23:02.09ZabotIs a link to the final pull request on github with my code and remarks acceptable for the work product submission?
23:02.34Robert_SA blog post or web page with more explanation is better.
23:03.25ZabotWhat is required in the way of explanation?
23:04.17teepeethe pull request can have also a good description
23:04.28Robert_S1) It should clearly demonstrate (via summary words and links) what work *you* did.
23:04.44Robert_S2) It should be possible/easy/obvious for someone else to find/use/extend the work you did.
23:05.13Robert_SIf all of your work is being packaged into a single pull request, then that might be equivalent, depending on how much description is there.  But it's kind of inflexible.
23:05.56Robert_SThese links serve multiple purposes.  They're both for your mentor to say "this is the work that was done" but also for the world to see "this is work produced during GSoC".
23:06.22teepeein our case https://github.com/openscad/openscad/pull/1751
23:06.31ZabotThis is what I have right now, I'm still writing it up, but I just want to make sure I don't fail because of a misunderstanding: https://github.com/tordanik/OSM2World/pull/112
23:08.16Robert_SThose seem perfectly reasonable from my perspective, in that they satisfy the requirements.
23:08.24Robert_SFailure is determined by your mentor, so you should ask them if it's ok.
23:08.33teepeeoffical requirements are listed in https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/help/work-product
23:09.24ZabotOh- ok. I already talked to my mentors, they said they weren't sure, but it would probably be fine. I just wanted to make triple sure.
23:09.39teepeewait a minute, that changed from 2 days ago
23:10.21olly_"It should be in a stable location. It cannot be changed after submission" seems one that's not really fulfilled by many of the ways that are apparently OK
23:10.40teepeeindeed
23:10.43olly_wiki pages can be deleted, and definitely changed after submissions
23:10.50teepeebut pull requests should be fine actually and are not mentioned
23:10.55Robert_Solly_: I'll fix the text.  "The URL cannot be changed after submission."
23:10.59Robert_Steepee: Give me 5 minutes.  :)
23:11.00ZabotSame thing with a public gist
23:11.03ZabotAh- ha
23:11.09olly_Robert_S: ah, that makes more ense
23:11.15ZabotThats the biggest thing that was giving me trouble with the PR
23:11.15olly_sense
23:12.04teepeeyup, but also means you can't really link to a branch as that might go away easily
23:12.17teepeethat: "(if you committed to another branch, change URL.)"
23:12.29Robert_Steepee: In hindsight, we shouldn't have included the list of changes option, but we can't remove it now.
23:12.52ZabotNote that the requirements say that the GSoC commits need to be easily distinguishable, so if you're going to use a pull request that might not get immediately pulled, you might want to add a note indicating the last GSoC commit
23:13.05olly_TBH it all seems a huge improvement over the random pile of changes in a useless format we used to have
23:13.21Robert_Solly_: Exactly.
23:13.26olly_if it takes one iteration to smooth out the wrinkles, that's not a big deal
23:13.39ZabotIt seems to me like linking a PR is the most intuitive option, it was the first thing that came to my mind
23:13.44teepeeyeah, I agree it's much better than uploading zip files
23:14.08ZabotA nice change log, list of commits, and developer comments all in one place

23:23.47ZabotRobert_S: If I link to a PR, can I continue to update it after I've submitted the final evaluation?
23:24.01Robert_SI can't stop you.
23:24.18ZabotI still have a bit of write up to do, but I want to finish the submission early
23:24.57Robert_SWill there be more commits?

23:26.31Robert_SSeems reasonable.
23:26.48Robert_SJust remember your mentor is the one who will review it.
