09:50.53 | d33tah | 01:23:10 d33tah$ Yes, each student may submit up to twenty applications. However, only one application will be accepted. We've heard from our mentoring organizations that quality is better than quantity. |
09:51.01 | d33tah | they must have updated it recently. |
09:51.06 | d33tah | thanks for the warning, dhaun ;) |
09:51.16 | perepujal | As a general rule I'd suggest to concentrate on 2 proposals |

09:52.45 | dhaun | it used to be 20 in previous years, but that always struck me as ridiculous and probably resulted in a lot of low quality last-minute proposals |
09:53.09 | olly | indeed |
09:53.11 | jojva | last minute proposal is plain stupid |
09:53.33 | olly | you get the odd one which has clearly been worked on for weeks, but most of dreadful |

13:56.10 | purezen | What was the outcome then..? |
13:56.57 | gevaerts | purezen: the procedure is that if someone is actually wanted by two organisations, the organisations talk to each other. If they fail to reach an agreement, the google people decide |
13:57.01 | gevaerts | That's *all* |
13:57.31 | gevaerts | That basically means the organisations have to work out how to decide this |
13:57.47 | swook | I think this 'worry' can be addressed when the happy situation arises :) |
13:57.59 | swook | It feels a bit premature to worry about this |
13:58.30 | *** join/#gsoc chandankumar (~chandanku@223.176.131.80) |
13:58.31 | gevaerts | Which means they can ask you (which is awkward, because they aren't supposed to tell you if you're accepted at that stage), or they can decide that one of them has other good proposals while the other one doesn't |
13:58.32 | swook | afterall, you don't apply to GSoC or Google, it's to the organisations directly |
13:59.24 | purezen | gavaerts: Oh.. well.. I see.. |
13:59.25 | gevaerts | So if you want to make sure that they know your preference even if they feel they shouldn't ask you (to avoid revealing information), I'd recommend telling them (or one of them) in a comment |

14:07.20 | JordiGH | dhaun: I kinda don't even want to bother with a reply. This is an awful way to start, so I can't imagine this student could actually produce anything of value. Do you think I should bother anyways, in case this is a misunderstood genius? |
14:07.28 | gevaerts | JordiGH: "We'd like to see a detailed schedule and some details of difficulties you expect", possibly adpated to the bits you find important |
14:08.00 | gevaerts | Replying isn't much effort, and yes, it could be someone who just didn't understand the application procedure |
14:08.06 | daimrod | JordiGH: it depends, for example my understanding of the GNU template is to copy&paste the text for the Summary section. |
14:08.11 | gevaerts | Unlikely, I agree, but replying only takes a minute or so |
14:08.27 | dhaun | JordiGH: if the entire proposal is a copy&paste, then I wouldn't bother; if it's only the description of the project and the rest is better, I'd try to push them for rephrasing things |

14:09.52 | JordiGH | Fine, I'll reply. |
14:10.15 | gevaerts | purezen: no. They were marked as "I want this one" by two organisations, and those organisations didn't decide which one should drop the application. If that happens, a decision is made by the google people in the deduplication meeting |
14:11.06 | swook | purezen: just out of curiosity, what gives you so much confidence? I have one application and would like to feel more confident about it but know there are other perhaps more talented students out there who have applied for the same idea. |

22:00.03 | Skillfulz | About the deadline. I've been really busy with final projects for school. Does submitting later reduce my chances of getting selected? |
22:00.18 | ojwb | that's up to the org |
22:00.30 | ojwb | they're allowed to use whatever criteria they want to select |
22:00.32 | gevaerts | Later? |
22:00.52 | ojwb | assumes Skillfulz means a day before the deadline vs a week before |
22:00.55 | Skillfulz | Do they get the proposals in real time or after the deadline? |
22:01.04 | gevaerts | Real time |
22:01.10 | gevaerts | I'd recommend talking to them now |
22:01.12 | ojwb | the earlier submissions will get more feedback in general, and so have more chance to be improved by the student |
22:01.28 | Skillfulz | yeah, I better work fast then |
22:01.50 | gevaerts | If you have some previous history with them that might counteract being on the late side to a certain extent |
22:02.57 | ojwb | probably the main problem is that the applications flood in towards the end, and the average quality really drops off, so any good ones risk being overlooked |
22:03.24 | gevaerts | Well... |
22:03.40 | gevaerts | It all depends on how many they get |
22:03.47 | ojwb | it does |
22:04.28 | gevaerts | I promise that back when I was still doing this stuff, I read all average and better proposals we got very carefully :) |
22:05.18 | Skillfulz | It is the blender foundation. I think it would be one of top on the list of organizations. |
22:05.24 | gevaerts | Of course, I might have missed some average ones, mistaking them for bad ones, but then the goal was to throw the average ones out, so that's not too much of a real problem |
22:05.44 | gevaerts | Also, we didn't get hundreds... |

23:12.19 | laurion | hey carols :) |
23:12.25 | carols | hey laurion |
23:12.31 | laurion | remember me? |
23:12.39 | laurion | i'm Lawrence from Code-in |
23:12.43 | laurion | last year |
23:12.44 | carols | laurion: cool :-) |
23:13.04 | carols | hiker: yes, but that has nothing to do with student allocations. |
23:13.12 | laurion | excited to participate in gsoc this year |
23:13.12 | hiker | I was coming to that ;) |
23:13.35 | hiker | Then admins can accept certain proposal. Google then allocates slots, and the top N proposals are selected? |
23:13.42 | carols | laurion: that's great! did you already submit your proposal? |
23:13.46 | carols | hiker: nope. |
23:13.47 | laurion | it's kind of late though |

23:14.05 | paultag | laurion: while that's true; you have a few days |
23:14.06 | laurion | no, carols, i didn't expect it to be so soon |
23:14.09 | hiker | And I thought I had read the melange manual correctly ;) |
23:14.12 | carols | hiker: we do not take into account any rankings. only those students you've explicitly accepted. |
23:14.29 | carols | laurion: ah, that's funny. :-) everyone's been telling me this year it's too late! |
23:14.32 | hiker | OK, so we need to accept between 4 and 6th of May. |
23:14.35 | laurion | it's just so many cool projects |
23:14.40 | hiker | You then take the top N ranked ones? |
23:14.49 | paultag | hiker: rankings aren't everything |
23:14.55 | paultag | hiker: you pick manually |
23:14.57 | hiker | ... of the accepted proposals? |
23:15.16 | carols | hiker: accepted. we take no account for rankings. |
23:15.24 | laurion | carols: I had summer in my mind, even though I knew that the applications started sooner |
23:15.31 | carols | laurion: ah, i see :-) |
23:16.38 | hiker | So can we pick the students after we know how many slots we get? We have the problem that some tasks are connected - and for the (currently) preferred tasks to be accepted, we also need a slot for a related task. If we get only 1 or 2 slots, we have a problem :( |
23:16.54 | meflin | you pick your students first |
23:17.12 | carols | what merlin said |

23:17.16 | laurion | good stuff around here |
23:17.17 | carols | sigh |

23:18.36 | carols | hiker: you're welcome to wait to accept students until as late as may 20 if you so choose. |

23:19.46 | hiker | Ah ok, so we would have the whole duplication-resolving time to figure out what to do if we don't get the number of slots we would need |
23:20.19 | tomprince | hiker: What happens if the student working on the related task drops out, or isn't able to complete the work? |
23:20.27 | hiker | tomprince: not really depend ... the guy came up with a very good idea on his own, which can make use of another proposal, but doesn't need to |
23:20.52 | carols | hiker: the duplication resolving period is about 3 days…i wouldn't recommend waiting until we've posted duplicates to accept proposals. in fact, that would be antithetical to the process. |
23:21.15 | hiker | he suggested a implementation of networking potentially using a 'rewind' feature (you receive the information that another player has done something) |
23:21.30 | hiker | His proposal works without it, but to be really smooth if would be good to have ... |
23:21.52 | hiker | if the other student wouldn't finish it, one of us devs will code that after gsoc, the other student's work would not be affected by it |
23:22.20 | hiker | carols: right, wrong word - slot allocation trade period then. |
23:22.27 | carols | hiker: indeed. |
23:22.27 | hiker | We can accept as soon as we know the number of slots |
23:22.30 | carols | sure. |
23:22.32 | carols | works for me. |
23:22.39 | hiker | Great. |
23:22.40 | tomprince | So, it shouldn't matter how many slots you get ... |
23:22.57 | tomprince | In any case, if you are a first year org, you are most likely to get 1 or 2 slots. |

23:23.53 | hiker | Yep, I read that |

23:24.31 | meflin | well begging and bribes wont help |
23:24.34 | hiker | With 6 mentors I am hoping that the page you quoted might be right ;) |
23:24.54 | carols | hiker: it all depends on what other orgs ask for this year. |

23:31.35 | meflin | good questions |
23:31.40 | hiker | But it really wasn't clear after reading the melange manual |
23:31.47 | meflin | when I started I wish I had known to ask them |
23:32.29 | hiker | We actually have a previous mentor from a different org as mentor for us as org (not for students) ;) He just wasn't around to be asked ;) |
23:32.53 | meflin | if my org was cut this year I would still send carols tea |
23:33.19 | carols | thanks meflin :-) |
23:37.13 | hiker | One other suggestion: while idlining here I have seen very often new students ask if they are good enough since they have no open source experience or so. |
23:37.20 | hiker | But I've never seen anyone suggesting to prepare by participating in open source before GSoC - since (imho) this would give them an edge (in terms of skills) next year. |
23:37.26 | meflin | there is a faq for that |
23:37.38 | hiker | Yes, I know |
23:37.48 | hiker | I was suggesting to add this to the faq/bot |
23:38.27 | meflin | one of my worst ever student apps was someone back to school with 20 years of exp |
23:39.02 | hiker | I basically have to reject around 39 students, and will certainly recommend all of them to do some open source work before next years GSoC - I just think that might be a good suggestion for others as well. |
23:39.17 | hiker | meflin:let me guess, he knew already everything best? |
23:39.56 | meflin | uh well yea he spent the whole 1-hour irc interview telling the whole team that where wipernapers who didn't no anything |
23:39.59 | meflin | I'm his age |
23:40.15 | hiker | *grin* |
23:40.19 | meflin | and as far as skills I was last and least :\ |
23:41.13 | hiker | Whow, that's bad indeed. Worst thing I have seen so far is someone suggesting a 2-week proposal *sigh* There should be blacklist of students somewhere ;) |
23:41.38 | meflin | well that was a high water mark ;) |
23:42.00 | bbc | hiker: you mean a student proposing t odo the job in 2 weeks? or that had only planned the first 2 weeks? |

23:42.20 | hiker | No, he suggested a project which he (and I) would consider to be done in 2 weeks |
23:42.24 | bbc | haha |
23:42.34 | meflin | project was C |

23:53.56 | laurion | meflin: i'm curious, what limit are you talking about? |
23:54.14 | gary_b | going for mono, ill have to submit the app and let them look into it. My project isnt on the ideas list because its probably too big / not too many mentors interested in it perhaps. |
23:54.25 | laurion | lionaneesh: what up!! |
23:54.48 | gary_b | ive been working on it in the off season, so hopefully they will be ok with what i propose |
23:54.51 | ojwb | laurion: students can submit up to 5 proposals this year |
23:54.57 | ojwb | in previous years the limit was 20 |
23:55.13 | lionaneesh | laurion: Hey! |
23:55.13 | ojwb | which everyone on the org side thought was much too high |
