00:28.52alicefthanks but i think you meant alasi
00:29.16alasithanks for the ping alicef
00:31.22valorieoops, sorry alicef
00:31.30valorieyes I meant alasi
00:31.37alasivalorie: The rules don't define "registration", which is what I was hoping to find
00:31.38valoriebad tab complete!
00:32.07valoriealasi: afaik the final day to submit your application
00:32.12alasihmmmm
00:32.19valoriebut you can ask support for more clarification
00:32.29valorie!support @alasi
00:32.29gsocbot@alasi: If your issues can't be solved here, feel free to contact gsoc-support@google.com.
00:32.49alasiyeah I really need clarification, I mean I'd be 18 by the time I received any sort of stipend
00:32.52alasithanks valorie

00:36.02olly_you need to be 18 when you sign up, and you need to sign up to submit a proposal
00:36.30olly_alasi: so as valorie says, you need to be 18 on or before the student submission deadline day
00:36.49olly_which sucks if you're 18 the next day, but any cut-off has that issue
00:36.58alasidamn that really sucks
00:37.16olly_on the plus side, you're still young
00:37.56alasiborn too late :P

00:48.27valoriealasi: not too young to start contributing though!
00:48.39valoriefind some project you love, and start fixing bugs
00:49.02alasiyeah I have been, I just wanted the additional motivation with a structured program/stipend
00:49.12valorieby next year you'll be a solid contributor already and probably top of every probable mentor's list
00:49.26valoriecool
00:49.35alasiIt looks like the Haskell project has its own GSoC cuz they keep getting rejected by google so maybe they have more lax rules
00:49.48valorietoo bad you weren't in KDE, we're just winding down our season of KDE program
00:50.22valorieyes, there are other mentoring programs, some with funding
00:50.41valorieKDE's does not have funding, just a certificate and some goodies

08:06.14oktomusIs 5 the number of maximum applications ? I readed the doc but I don't remember where it was :(
08:16.10skamathoktomus, Yes. But it's not really recommended to put in 5 applications.
08:16.38oktomus1 per company is better I think
08:17.26skamathoktomus, Not really. Work on a proposal and make sure you put in your 100% on it rather than proposing 5 different projects to 5 different orgs.
08:17.33skamathBut that's just my 2 cents.
08:18.53skamathYou're more likely to make it if you work with one organization (or atmost two)
08:19.21oktomusyes, but the orgonization i'm intersested have a lot of project
08:19.29oktomusyes, but the orgonization i'm intersested in have a lot of project
08:22.39skamathoktomus, So pick the one that interests you the best.
08:22.47skamaths/best/most
08:23.16oktomusBut if everyone pick this one, I am less lickely to participate :/
08:23.50skamathoktomus, If you start early and start contributing to the project, you'll be in a very good position when the application period opens.
08:24.18skamathIf you have made bug fixes/filed issues/opened PRs, you can mention that in your application.
08:24.45skamathIt will be a *huge* boost when mentors review the application.
08:25.28oktomusOk thanks, I did in fact :) I will start contributing to the project, that's a great idea
08:25.49skamathoktomus, Sounds great. Good luck ;)
08:25.58oktomusskamath, thanks :)

08:42.24olly_oktomus: skamath: the maximum is 3 this year (it was 5 last year)
08:42.42skamatholly_, Oh right. I assumed it was same this year.
08:42.48skamathoktomus, ^^
08:43.02skamathI should have checked :)
08:43.14oktomusskamath: It doesn't change much finally :)
08:43.19olly_apparently there was discussion at the mentor summit - there was an email to mentors very recently which mentioned this
08:43.20oktomusNo problem!
08:43.56skamatholly_, Thanks for clarifying. This is a very good change.
08:44.04olly_yes, the people submitting 5 were doing it wrong, so it just meant a lot of extra low quality proposals for orgs to ignore
08:44.19olly_it used to be 20, which was ridiculous
08:44.24oktomuswow
08:44.44skamathWe had atleast 5 spam-ish proposals last year.
08:45.14olly_that's quite low IME
08:45.53skamatholly_, By that - I meant the ones which are 100% irrelevant. We had a lot of low quality ones apart from those.
08:46.23olly_i don't think i blogged our stats for last year, and I'm not sure they're visible now
08:47.07skamathIt'd be great to see some stats. Have you thought of building some kind of a metrics dashboard?

08:48.40olly_i'm just an org admin, not with google
08:49.35skamathAll those you +op'd are not Google folks?
08:49.44olly_so in 2012, our org has 9 spam out of 41, but that's both irrelevant and just a c&p from the ideas list
08:50.11olly_no, most of the ops currently here are just long term org admins or mentors
08:50.17skamathTIL
08:52.30olly_i just suggested we needed more community ops a few months ago, as several of the previous ones were no longer around and there's been a spate of channel spamming - then suddenly I'm an op here amongst several other new ones

16:07.03VercantezIs it a good idea to try to work on starter bugs for the project we want to pitch a proposal to? What are some good ways to spend our time right now in preparation for our proposals?
16:09.15VercantezAlso, does anyone know if it's a good idea to focus on one project we really want to work with or to make three proposals so we have better chances?
16:10.07meflinit is a good idea to get involved and work on bugs and such
16:10.45meflinthe best idea is to put all your effort into 1 strong proposal instead of many less strong proposals IMO
16:11.43VercantezOk, thanks so much!
