| 07:11.20 | ayush23dash | Hello everyone |
| 07:12.21 | ayush23dash | I am currently working on a proposal by Mozilla and have a doubt.My mentor told me that it is still not clear whether the proposal will be accepted or not |
| 07:13.08 | ayush23dash | So I want to ask that is there something like that even if an organisation is selected even then some of their proposals are rejected? |

| 11:27.09 | sourabhR4ikwar | Hi anyone active here.. |
| 11:29.46 | teepee_ | I guess so, yes |
| 11:32.32 | sourabhR4ikwar | Hi teepee_ I am new to this whole gsoc thing... If you are not busy can you help me.... |
| 11:33.14 | sourabhR4ikwar | I dont get it... how to find the projects to work on... |
| 11:33.44 | teepee_ | I'll be off to lunch soon, but I can try to answer some questions and there's more people here that likely will answer too, just may take a while |
| 11:34.19 | sourabhR4ikwar | No Problem... Thanks by the way.... |
| 11:34.21 | teepee_ | well, the official list of orgs taking part is not finished - should be posted next monday I think |
| 11:36.09 | sourabhR4ikwar | Okay.. does the organisations assign task or we have to give idea to the organisations.... |
| 11:36.38 | sourabhR4ikwar | English is not my native language so please kindly pardon me if i use wrong grammar |
| 11:36.50 | teepee_ | orgs propose a list of tasks to select from, normally with different levels of difficulty so picking a good matching task is important |
| 11:37.52 | teepee_ | no worries, it's not my native language either |
| 11:39.16 | sourabhR4ikwar | do i need to have a strong github profile to get selected... |
| 11:40.02 | sourabhR4ikwar | Like is it required to contribute to opensource projects before applying |
| 11:44.07 | teepee_ | no, it's not required, it helps of cause, but the project is really also meant to introduce students to open source |
| 11:47.35 | teepee_ | in my experience from being mentor multiple times, the best option is to pick a task that matches the skills and talk to people |
| 11:48.28 | teepee_ | having a good communication is more important than trying to produce lots of code |
| 11:49.15 | sourabhR4ikwar | hmm thats something i have to work on a lot.... Im kinda introvert |
| 11:51.04 | sourabhR4ikwar | Now in general if not applying for GSOC, How do you find a project to contribute to.... |
| 11:51.40 | teepee_ | what I suggest is to find something you actually use, and maybe even found a small issue to report and work on |
| 11:52.19 | teepee_ | we had people even reporting typos in error message what motivated someone to post their first pull request |
| 11:54.17 | sourabhR4ikwar | wow... I feel like i dont have enough skills to contribute to the projects that i use they are way high level........ I am from a web stack... MERN, MEAN I am good at it... But i never feel that confident.... |
| 11:54.42 | sourabhR4ikwar | that i can contribute... |
| 11:55.15 | teepee_ | pretty much all projects have topics that are easy to get into, sometimes those are not discussed often, but they exist |
| 11:55.56 | teepee_ | e.g. if the project is on a site like github some have tasks specifically tagged as "good first issue" or something like that |
| 11:56.38 | teepee_ | if there's a project you are interested in, join the forum / mailing list / irc channel / discord whatever they have and just listen in for a while |
| 11:57.53 | sourabhR4ikwar | I hope im not disturbing your lunch... Thank you for your time... Enjoy your meal..... |
| 11:58.43 | teepee_ | no problem at all |
| 12:01.14 | sourabhR4ikwar | at last In your experience can you give me any tip by which i can increase my chances of selection in GSOC... |
