00:06.42 | wkoszek | olly: How do I fix it? |
00:06.46 | medfly | cool |
00:06.53 | olly | wkoszek: that suggests they need to create a profile for 2014 |
00:07.04 | medfly | whta sould "actual content of proposal" say? elaboration of abstract? |
00:07.20 | olly | medfly: does your org provide a template? |
00:07.30 | medfly | uh... I don't know? |
00:07.50 | medfly | I guess I could talk more to the guy who gave the idea once he shows up |
00:08.10 | olly | if they've set it up right it should appear automatically when you create a proposal I think, but they may have failed to |
00:08.22 | olly | the place to add it appeared some time after orgs were accepted |
00:08.31 | medfly | yeah there is a template thing, I think? I have a form to fill in |

00:09.42 | mudler | uh oh hi to all humans :) |
00:09.58 | larryxiao1 | hello! |
00:10.00 | mudler | it's possible to edit the proposal after the deadline? (adjusting it a little bit) |
00:10.07 | olly | there are various examples proposals from past years around, but orgs are not all after exactly the same things |
00:10.18 | larryxiao1 | yep |
00:10.18 | olly | mudler: no, but you can make comments |
00:10.30 | wkoszek | olly: Do they have to use gmail.com accounts? |
00:10.39 | olly | wkoszek: no |
00:10.50 | wkoszek | olly: OK, so I don't understand the proble, |
00:11.16 | olly | you need a google account to sign in, but a google account isn't exactly the same as a gmail account AIUI |
00:11.17 | gevaerts | You need a google account, which isn't the same at all as a gmail account |
00:11.18 | wkoszek | <PROTECTED> |
00:11.40 | olly | wkoszek: an account != a profile for 2014 |
00:11.48 | olly | it sounds like they have an account |
00:11.51 | olly | but not a profile |
00:11.55 | wkoszek | So I use "bsdimp" to add him. |
00:11.57 | wkoszek | Ok. |
00:11.57 | mudler | ok, so google will decide slots upon the proposals? or also comments will matter? defining a timeline would be a bit hard,maybe some tasks are to hard to accomplish and maybe the student could be "overloaded" |
00:12.11 | olly | "Please provide usernames of users *with profiles only*." |
00:12.29 | olly | wkoszek: bsdimp is right, but he needs to create a profile |
00:12.30 | gevaerts | mudler: google doesn't decide who to accept. The organisations do |
00:12.44 | wkoszek | So which link can I give him? |
00:12.55 | wkoszek | olly: I think he missed registration step. |
00:12.57 | mudler | gevaerts: i was talking about slots, not the proposal itself :P |
00:13.02 | olly | wkoszek: there will be a big orange button on front page |
00:13.17 | olly | !slots | mudler |
00:13.17 | gsocbot | mudler: "slots" is (#1) Slot allocation is done manually by Chris DiBona and Carol Smith, be a good org, play nice on the mentor list and #gsoc, ask for a non-crazy-high number of slots, and you'll probably get what you ask. Note that non-crazy-high for new orgs is around 1 or 2., or (#2) http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2014/studentallocations |

02:26.00 | olly | quite a few people are involved with multiple orgs |
02:26.38 | olly | so sending the same proposal to 5 orgs is fairly likely to be spotted, if that's what you're wondering |
02:26.54 | olly | they tend to be obvious anyway - they're just too generic |
02:27.18 | dfighter | most desirable proposal, har har |
02:27.33 | umccullough | my favorite so far: "Implement an idea of you" |
02:28.04 | bePolite | what are too generic? |

08:29.58 | avaneesh | But I can tell you, stuff in CERN Projects is slightly complicated than, say, GNOME or KDE projects. |
08:30.40 | PulkoMandy | not necessarily - big algorithm and dataset processing could be easier than building a (good) user interface |

08:31.58 | PulkoMandy | well, we allow students to cut down our project ideas and only plan to implement a subset of them |
08:32.41 | ashmew2 | Since most people haven't used the concerned program, they don't have any idea (even a user perspective) about it , so they are bound to be unclear on what's big and what's small and what's needed the most. |

08:33.54 | PulkoMandy | we had students using the last two weeks very well for this, coming from "I know nothing about it, but it looks interesting" to quite good proposals |
08:33.57 | ashmew2 | PulkoMandy, yea. But some of the students I know feel "What would they feel if I ask them stupid doubts?" |
08:34.26 | *** join/#gsoc TanviM_ (~tanvimalh@59.178.143.209) |
08:34.32 | ashmew2 | so they end up not asking at all and trying their level best. But then it comes down to "Asking and maybe getting accepted" or "Not asking and not even being able to write a proposal". |
08:34.35 | PulkoMandy | yes, that's the one thing they need to avoid - we're fine with students asking questions, admitting they don't know how to do something, and getting help from the mentors |

08:46.08 | medfly | my approach to finding a gsoc project is to go to the mentordudes and be like "you guys like any projects?" and then put it on |
08:46.17 | PulkoMandy | olly: being an operating system project, I think a lot of students frightened away when they met the "kernel" heading in our ideas page or something |
08:46.43 | PulkoMandy | I don't think the ideas that involve kernel-side code are more difficult, but it's probably something students are less familiar with |
08:47.10 | PulkoMandy | so, at least some pointers to the relevant code could make them think "Ok, I can understand this, it's fairly classical C++ after all" |
08:47.14 | *** join/#gsoc sidthekid (~quassel@202.78.172.162) |

14:39.19 | kblin | I have seen less spammy proposals, so I guess that's an additional benefit as well |
14:39.28 | darnir | Also, the shifting timeline seems to have caused a few problems. I don't know how many it solved. |
14:39.38 | kblin | or rather, all spammy proposals came in as mentor connections |

14:54.18 | osa1 | hi all. I just realized that I need to provide "enrollment form" before I can submit a proposal. unfortunately, because of some reasons I can't get that form from my school until monday(I was just about to submit my proposal now). but I get accepted to graduate school for Fall 2014 at a university and I have acceptence letter sent via email. does that letter work as a enrollment form? |

18:42.28 | stqism | etern: It's up to the various org thogh |
18:42.30 | darnir | Also, I see it as a sort of weeding process. Some people simply write proposals without actually going through the org's guidelines. If the guideline says, PDF mandatory. It allows you to weed out those students who didn't even bother to read that. |

22:57.17 | derdon | well, the mentors who belong to this project. not all mentors in general ;) |
22:57.19 | KolibriOS|yogev | derdon: Actually no, there is a bug and we still don't |
22:57.34 | derdon | oh, ok. didn't know that because I'm not a mentor ;) |
22:57.41 | KolibriOS|yogev | derdon: We get a notification on new proposals and on new comments, but not on update proposals |
22:57.42 | derdon | I only heard of it from other mentors |
22:57.49 | terri | KolibriOS|yogev: Oh, phew ,I was just going to ask becaus eI haven't seen a single one. |
22:58.01 | derdon | sorry for the confusion then |
