05:16.35 | ram_ | Hi, I've been participating in Google's Fuchsia OS and one of the project leads seemed to express that he would be in favour of Fuchsia being in GSOC this year. Is it still possible? Cheers. |
05:17.50 | valorie | ram_: the deadline for org applications was a couple of weeks ago |
05:18.18 | valorie | however, Fuschia can still join with a bigger "umbrella" org |

15:40.19 | BigOChief | MaskyS: Nothing much really |
15:40.42 | MaskyS_ | nikivi: No, but you can track down previous organizations that have participated for a few years in gsoc and gci. You can bet that they will be there this year as well |
15:41.15 | MaskyS_ | Rob: Totally. If you put in enough effort you can do it. The key is to start now. |
15:41.19 | nikivi | one thing that I always found diffiicult |
15:41.28 | nikivi | is just how hard it really is to contribute to a big project |
15:41.53 | nikivi | like you have to understand the project and all its inner details to actually make a meaningful contribution |
15:41.55 | Rob | MaskyS_: how would you recommend I start? I'm learning JS right now |
15:41.57 | teepee | Rob: if you can make sure you have both enough time and motivation, you should be good to go |
15:42.01 | MaskyS_ | nikivi: Have you checked out previous projects/ project ideas to see what it's like? |
15:42.07 | nikivi | and with that you not only have to understand the language, but the project and the domain itself |
15:42.13 | nikivi | MaskyS_ I have |
15:42.18 | teepee | Rob: read the student guide :) |
15:42.19 | Rob | teepee: thanks! but exactly how do you start, I'm really interested in GSoC but it's very vague |
15:42.26 | teepee | !studentguide | Rob |
15:42.26 | gsocbot | Rob: "studentguide" is http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCStudentGuide/ |
15:42.47 | Rob | Thanks very much, I'll be back soon haha |
15:43.32 | MaskyS_ | nikivi: It really depends on what organization you choose. But yes, it will not come easy to understand the whole thing. |
15:43.56 | cannon2 | every project involves just one student and mentor(s) from an organization, right? No partnering with other selected students under the same organization? |
15:44.05 | MaskyS_ | nikivi: Put in enough effort and tackle things little by little, you should be good. |
15:44.12 | MaskyS_ | cannon2: yes. |
15:45.03 | MaskyS_ | cannon2: though, in an open source community, people can help each other out. That doesn't mean that somebody else will do all your work though. |
15:46.56 | cannon2 | So that doesn't mean that my code has to be public all through the while, right? |
15:47.11 | cannon2 | I mean throughout the project duration |
15:50.38 | MaskyS_ | cannon2: No. But it is good practise to let others see it and provide feedback for your code, so that you can improve it. One thing to keep in mind is that no two students will work on the same project. |
15:52.38 | cannon2 | Thank you @MaskyS_ . It's great to be here. |

16:06.54 | Rob | Is that right or am i misinterpreting the document |
16:07.26 | |Kev| | You *can* create your own ideas, but you want to be very much talking to the org before you try that (indeed, you should be talking to orgs regardless of the project you want). |

16:08.42 | Rob | Thanks for clearing that up though :P |
16:08.46 | meflin_ | talk to the org ... not necessarily the org admin |
16:08.55 | |Kev| | Certainly not, inventing a project idea and getting accepted is relatively rare. |
16:09.04 | *** mode/#gsoc [+o meflin] by ChanServ |
16:09.07 | MaskyS | Rob: AFAIS The project plan section tells to research about the existing project idea and completely concretising what you are going to do. |
16:09.37 | Rob | MaskyS: Yeah that makes a lot more sense, the plan is just detailing how you would add to an existing project |
16:10.09 | Rob | I've seen a lot of projects that only have one student listed under them, do they only list the student that proposed the project or everyone working on them? |
16:10.13 | Rob | For example https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/archive/2016/projects/4999444474888192/ |
16:10.34 | MaskyS | Rob: Not only adding to it, but fully detailing it. |

16:11.43 | MaskyS | accepted* |
16:13.13 | MaskyS | Rob: Multiple students can submit a proposal for a project idea, but only one will be selected to work on that specific project. |
16:14.01 | Rob | MaskyS: A lot of these look incredibly complex, is GSoC meant for only experienced programmers? Like some are so scientific that I wouldn't know where to even begin Googling |
16:14.20 | |Kev| | Some are complex, some are relatively simple. |
16:14.28 | MaskyS | Rob, Nope. I think you're looking at the wrong orgs |
16:14.38 | |Kev| | Certainly it's expected that anyone participating in GSoC can write code, but beyond that... |
16:14.42 | MaskyS | Rob: Therre are simple projects out there as well |
16:15.01 | |Kev| | Students have a mentor to help them through stuff, and you can get through a lot in a few months of full-time work |
16:15.41 | MaskyS | yes, mentors play a huge role |

16:20.42 | Freso | It is never too late to start getting involved with FLOSS. |
16:20.53 | MaskyS | Rob: I think I'm inexperienced for this one. |
16:21.27 | Freso | But <24 hours before org.s are revealed is hardly a head start, compared to students who have approached org.s 3+ months ago and have already embedded themselves into the community. |
16:21.30 | MaskyS | BigOChief: simple, find orgs that favour your language :) |
16:21.42 | BigOChief | I know it would take about a week to get comfortable with the language but its too late for that now so i's rather stick with languages Im comfortable with |

One of them is almost singlehandedly responsible for our Picard 1.4 release (after more than 2 years of us saying "we should really make a new release"). |
16:24.46 | MaskyS | Rob: haha no. I'll shw you |
16:24.52 | meflin | Rob: gsoc or not or even later years its never to soon to get involved in opensource |
16:25.29 | |Kev| | Freso: Impressive. I don't think that's *ever* happened to us 3 months in advance. |
16:25.35 | MaskyS | meflin: True. open source is an experience that will stay with you for life. |
16:25.41 | Rob | @meflin: It's not that I don't want to be involved, I can barely build a CRUD app lol |
16:26.05 | meflin | we also need doc's testers and all kins of things |
16:26.05 | Freso | Rob: Even if you think GSoC is too much this year, you can get involved with an org. you like and improve your skillset and apply next year! |
16:26.14 | BigOChief | Freso: That's really great.But the point here really is for GSoC 3 months prior to the project seems a bit far fetched |

23:30.00 | marncz | oliveratutexas: I'm a student |
23:31.19 | oliveratutexas | I am too. I was a bit confused about the schedule. It said apps don't open up until march 20th, but it seemed to imply that the orgs were already selected. I was looking for a list, but I couldn't find one. Does one exist yet? |
23:31.26 | marncz | Still knowing a thing or two so may answer some of your questions :) |
23:31.44 | Cerv_afk | no org list yet, but very close |
23:32.00 | marncz | oliveratutexas: the list of orgs will be published in roughly 17 hours from now |
23:32.02 | Cervator | announcement is "tomorrow" - depending on where you are in the world |
23:32.55 | oliveratutexas | Oh okay! Yeah, I saw this last year, but I waited too long to apply for it. I'll try to get into an org once the list is revealed. |

23:39.47 | valorie | "early on" was months ago |

23:44.00 | Cervator | you get used to it over time, may take a year or two to get truly ready. Same for orgs, we got in on our 4th try :-) |
23:44.00 | valorie | getting involved is fixing bugs and otherwise helping out *in orgs* |
23:44.19 | valorie | amen, Cervator |
23:46.23 | oliveratutexas | Oh, how did people get involved "early on" if they didn't have the list of orgs? |
23:48.44 | valorie | there is the list from last year |
23:49.01 | valorie | and honestly, any free software experience is portable |
23:49.24 | valorie | if you contribute to FOSS org A and they don't apply |
23:49.40 | valorie | your experience will be good for org B that is accepted into GSoC |
23:50.09 | valorie | this program is designed to improve all of FOSS |
23:50.50 | oliveratutexas | Okay. Uh, should I just go to one of the orgs on the list and start fixing bugs or something? |
23:50.53 | valorie | in KDE, we're almost as happy when we see former students involved with other FOSS orgs later |
23:51.02 | valorie | as we are if they stay active with us |
23:51.08 | valorie | oliveratutexas: yes |
23:55.12 | marncz | oliveratutexas: if you look at GitHub issues, there are some labeled "easy", "start issues", "gsoc" |
23:55.35 | marncz | it's good to start looking at those |
