| 00:38.00 | medo | ?* |
| 00:39.04 | r0bby | medo: don't rely on just valorie -- she has to worry about her org -- unless you're a KDE applicant |
| 00:39.20 | r0bby | You have a lot of people here who know what a successful proposal looks like |
| 00:39.21 | medo | uhmm no |
| 00:40.47 | r0bby | medo: what? |
| 00:40.56 | *** join/#gsoc medo95 (66b8994b@102.184.153.75) |
| 00:41.05 | medo95 | sorry disconnected |
| 00:41.10 | r0bby | medo95: I was aying for example I could help you |
| 00:41.22 | r0bby | Lots of mentors lurk here |
| 00:41.25 | medo95 | i just uploaded my proof of enrollment |
| 00:41.37 | r0bby | That's something Google themselves has to verify |
| 00:41.40 | r0bby | We don't see it |
| 00:41.44 | r0bby | even org admins |
| 00:41.54 | medo95 | aha i know i was thinking about the next step |
| 00:41.56 | r0bby | we can't see any of your profile actually |
| 00:42.14 | r0bby | medo95: next step is find an org and a project to work on |
| 00:42.27 | medo95 | that is the proposal? |
| 00:42.48 | r0bby | Well many orgs require you work on some issues to familiarize with the org, or some other task to evaluate your coding skills |

| 00:44.39 | medo | may you forward what you wrote while i was disconnected please |
| 00:44.52 | medo | i'm sorry but it's the internet going mad now |
| 00:44.58 | r0bby | Well many orgs require you work on some issues to familiarize with the org, or some other task to evaluate your coding skills |
| 00:45.14 | r0bby | so find the org and get yourself acquainted -- avoid sending private messages if you can |
| 00:45.29 | medo | okay |

| 00:45.51 | r0bby | Well yeah for now |
| 00:45.58 | r0bby | Your proposal is going to be the meat of it |
| 00:46.14 | r0bby | if it's less than 6-10 pages, you didn't submit a good one |
| 00:46.19 | medo | so the 3 proposals are 3 companies i try to help so they evaluate me? |
| 00:46.31 | r0bby | companies? No -- we're Open Source communities. |
| 00:46.42 | medo | aha sorry |
| 00:47.05 | medo | just writing fast and writing the nearest meaning coming to my head it's my first time here |

| 00:48.43 | medo | my proposals are for organizations to help them with some issues they got right? |
| 00:48.49 | medo | do i get it right? |
| 00:48.58 | r0bby | It's basically your project plan |

| 00:57.56 | medo | another question, while i was reading what is proposal there was written requirements for participation may you send it to me? |
| 00:58.10 | medo | i would like to read it too |
| 00:58.49 | medo | r0bby |
| 01:00.47 | r0bby | it depends on the org |
| 01:00.53 | r0bby | each org can set their own policies |
| 01:01.02 | medo | aha ok got it |
| 01:02.54 | r0bby | So long as we don't go against the program rules, we can do whatever we want -- oftentimes the rules are there because experience taught us that it was necessary |
| 01:02.56 | medo | how many hours can i have outside the project in a day? |
| 01:03.27 | medo | or how many hours will i work on the project on average per day |
| 01:04.46 | r0bby | 40 hours per week |
| 01:05.00 | r0bby | No other jobs outside of GSoC |
| 01:05.10 | r0bby | That's a recipe for disaster |
| 01:05.12 | medo | not a job , university |
| 01:05.18 | r0bby | University is fine |
| 01:05.28 | medo | okay good |
| 01:05.44 | r0bby | but 40 hours per week -- though I don't particularly track hours worked or at least never have -- make your milestones and you're good |
| 01:06.31 | medo | i donot have to be super professional in the languages i know right? |
| 01:07.02 | r0bby | You do have to know the langage enough to do the project without handholding |
| 01:07.18 | medo | i mean i'm good at c++ won't say very good but nearly, also i know java script |
| 01:07.38 | medo | and i did a project before using c++ Oob |
| 01:07.58 | medo | it was a game |
| 01:08.11 | medo | snake and ladder but i did nothing in the graphic stuff |
| 01:08.37 | medo | and it wasnot snake and ladder only it had cards and some other stuff |
| 01:09.30 | medo | and using java script did some basic programs not some thing big |
| 01:09.41 | medo | that's good enough ? |
| 01:11.33 | r0bby | If you don't have a coding track record on github, I'd be weary of accepting you |
| 01:12.52 | medo | i did upload none of my codes there |

| 12:12.31 | medo | if I did choose the organization and I want the mentor to send me the bugs he wants to test me with what should I do |
| 12:14.15 | PulkoMandy | usually the mentor will not spoon-feed you with the bugs. You should have some autonomy |
| 12:14.48 | PulkoMandy | but, read the organization-specific application instructions (they probably have something like that) and see what they say there |
| 12:15.40 | medo | okay thank you |
| 12:16.16 | medo | am I late? or I still can be accepted? |
| 12:16.36 | PulkoMandy | applications are open until 31 of march I think |
| 12:16.44 | medo | aha |
| 12:16.57 | PulkoMandy | but you should start working on your proposal and submit a draft to the organization so they can review it before the deadline |
