| yffbrave | hi, anybody here? | 00:35 |
|---|---|---|
| antrik | maybe | 00:36 |
| yffbrave | do you know how to delete a proposal? cauz I can't find any hint | 00:38 |
| Triskelios | just leave a note on the proposal | 00:38 |
| yffbrave | leave a note? I made a mistake and submitted the same proposal three times, I don't know which one left the organization will see, the latest one? | 00:41 |
| Triskelios | check your dashboard. if they were submitted separately all of them will be there | 00:42 |
| Triskelios | you're usually allowed to submit more than one proposal to an org, but they're also supposed to be different | 00:43 |
| antrik | yffbrave: you can withdraw the wrong ones | 00:44 |
| yffbrave | withdraw? how? | 00:44 |
| *** tephe has joined #melange | 00:44 | |
| yffbrave | Triskelios: yes, but I submitted the same proposals that's why I want to delete two duplicates. | 00:45 |
| Triskelios | ah yeah, there's supposed to be a withdraw button on the page | 00:45 |
| Triskelios | yffbrave: check each proposal | 00:45 |
| yffbrave | ok, I will have a try now | 00:45 |
| yffbrave | hi, I did it, thank you guys :P | 00:51 |

| ptressel | Does anyone know why students are saying "trimester" for each month of their project timeline? Does that appear on a project template? It sorta kinda means three months... | 01:46 |
| hypatia | doesn'y trimester also mean 4 months? | 01:49 |
| hypatia | 1/3 of the year? | 01:49 |
| ptressel | Usually three months, or one academic term. | 01:49 |
| ptressel | But all the proposals I've seen are using it to mean *one* month. | 01:50 |
| ptressel | So I'm guessing it got put on some template. | 01:50 |

| *** crodjer has joined #melange | 08:28 | |
| SRabbelier|Lappy | tephe: can you put your code up somewhere? | 08:31 |

| *** orcuna has quit IRC | 08:56 | |
| Alexia_Death_ | Last year admins had an option to reject applications that really really didnt quailfy. | 08:56 |
| Alexia_Death_ | Is this option still there but hiddn or is it gone? | 08:56 |
| SRabbelier|Lappy | Alexia_Death_: not added yet, madrazr is on it | 08:57 |
| Alexia_Death_ | OK | 08:57 |
| Alexia_Death_ | Im bafdli missing it. | 08:57 |
| tephe | I'm baffled myself, it should work | 08:57 |
| Alexia_Death_ | badly* | 08:57 |
| Alexia_Death_ | :)) | 08:57 |
| SRabbelier|Lappy | tephe: try using a regular post, with a submit button? | 08:58 |
| tephe | Tried, it still doesn't send anything in self.request.POST | 09:01 |
| SRabbelier|Lappy | tephe: do other forms work for you? | 09:16 |

| madrazr | leumas: sure | 09:53 |
| madrazr | leumas: we will do it when we formally start reviewing the proposals | 09:53 |
| leumas | @madrazr ohh okay!! thanks | 09:54 |
| madrazr | leumas: NP | 09:55 |
| leumas | @madrazr hope you have seen it : http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/review/google/gsoc2011/samuelab0/1 | 09:55 |
| tpb | <http://ln-s.net/8iAc> (at www.google-melange.com) | 09:55 |
| madrazr | leumas: yes I have skimmed through it | 09:55 |
| madrazr | leumas: there is no need to give the link | 09:55 |
| madrazr | leumas: we can see your proposal | 09:55 |
| madrazr | leumas: and upon that because of awesome notifications SRabbelier|Lappy implemented we get the updates in our inbox too! | 09:56 |

| madrazr | leumas: we "guys"? | 10:00 |
| leumas | @madrazr I guessed you work in a company ! | 10:00 |
| madrazr | leumas: Melange is an open source project and like most other open source projects, Melange devs are spread across the world | 10:00 |
| madrazr | leumas: with different timezones | 10:01 |
| madrazr | leumas: OMG! Melange is an open source project! Not a company! | 10:01 |

| madrazr | infinite recursion is dangerous :D | 10:03 |
| madrazr | leumas: it was for you | 10:03 |
| leumas | @madrazr what happened? | 10:03 |
| madrazr | leumas: but you should read up IRC etiquette | 10:03 |
| madrazr | leumas: it is usually not a good idea to use SMS style language in IRC | 10:04 |
| madrazr | leumas: I have got some sarcastic remarks about that from devs during my early days in open source | 10:04 |
| leumas | @madrazr okay! i'll take that as an advice | 10:04 |
| * madrazr checks if he can find a link to IRC etiquette | 10:04 | |
| leumas | @madrazr @ stands for admin ? | 10:07 |
| madrazr | leumas: what? | 10:08 |
| leumas | @madrazr the mark @ before your name and the other mentor's name - what does it show? | 10:08 |
| *** pacman has quit IRC | 10:09 | |
| madrazr | leumas: I am not sure what @ mark you are talking about | 10:09 |
| madrazr | leumas: I don't see any @ mark before my name | 10:09 |
| gevaerts | leumas: it means "having op privileges in the channel" | 10:09 |
| gevaerts | i.e. be nice or he'll kick you :) | 10:09 |
| leumas | gevaerts oh! well that's a precaution! | 10:10 |

| *** leumas has quit IRC | 10:12 | |
| madrazr | gevaerts: I have a serious question | 10:12 |
| madrazr | gevaerts: I am lost I think | 10:12 |
| madrazr | gevaerts: what @ symbol is that? | 10:12 |
| madrazr | gevaerts: does any client show the OP with @ symbol? | 10:13 |
| gevaerts | Several do, yes | 10:13 |
| madrazr | gevaerts: Oh! I never knew about it. Pidgin addict I am | 10:13 |
| madrazr | gevaerts: I have always identify an OP as one with STAR :) | 10:14 |
| gevaerts | I disabled it here, but /names still shows them | 10:14 |
| madrazr | gevaerts: Oh | 10:14 |

| madrazr | gevaerts: ah right. One of my friends always keeps telling me that it is not a good thing to be OP all the time | 10:17 |
| gevaerts | It's a matter of taste I guess | 10:18 |
| madrazr | gevaerts: but I think it is fun to be an OP :P | 10:18 |
| madrazr | gevaerts: sure | 10:18 |

| m1k3y | i dont know who did it, but somebody set my link id (associated with my primary email id) to doofus | 14:47 |

| m1k3y | it doesn't make much difference, but my gsoc proposal link contains the link id, and im a bit uncomfortable sharing it | 14:50 |
| SRabbelier|Lappy | m1k3y: it's not possible | 14:51 |

| kai | I've just stumbled across a curious issue | 15:30 |
| kai | not sure if it's a bug or not | 15:30 |
| kai | so as I just described I had a mentor request each for both orgs I admin from one person | 15:32 |
| kai | *described in #gsoc | 15:32 |
| kai | I only saw one line for that person in my dashboard requests list, rejected that, and then realized that I actually expected two of them | 15:34 |
| kai | sure enough, there's two of them in there if I filter for rejected requests | 15:34 |
| kai | I was wondering if one of my co-admins rejected the other one | 15:35 |

| SRabbelier|Lappy | kai: hehe :D | 15:44 |
| kai | I guess 99.99% of applications of people to two mentoring orgs where you want to reject one of them are spam and you want to reject the second one as well | 15:44 |

| SRabbelier | BlankVerse: not sure, I assume using regular html tables | 16:34 |
| BlankVerse | SRabbelier: regular html markup for tables doesn;t work on the editor , does it use some custom markup like wiki? | 16:35 |
| SRabbelier | BlankVerse: click the html button | 16:36 |
| BlankVerse | SRabbelier: i directly write on the advanced html editor | 16:36 |
| BlankVerse | the edit html source | 16:37 |

| Arc | if i open the exact same url from a link from the dashboard it works | 17:04 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: impossible :) | 17:09 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: probably a loggedin-ness problem? | 17:09 |
| Arc | SRabbelier: no im logged in to the dashboard in a different tab when that happens | 17:09 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: try going to http://www.google-melange.com/login explicitly | 17:09 |
| tpb | Title: Google Accounts (at www.google-melange.com) | 17:09 |
| Arc | and from dashboard i middle-click on the same app it opens in a tab with the same url just fine | 17:10 |

| LetterRip | enhancement request - a way to 'group' proposals on the same topic | 17:20 |
| LetterRip | perhaps a tag field, then sort by tag | 17:20 |
| Arc | LetterRip: that was proposed by being able to tag applications but AFAIK thats not on the agenda for this year | 17:20 |
| LetterRip | yeah i'm sure you guys have a bazillion and one othe things :) | 17:20 |
| Arc | LetterRip: what I do (i admin for PSF, which is a big umbrella org) is grab the CSV of the applications once they close then manage them completely outside of melange, then push the list of students we want into melange when the data is together | 17:21 |
| Arc | anything else is chaos | 17:21 |
| LetterRip | heh | 17:22 |
| Arc | CSV is a big step over having to use BeautifulSoup to parse the data off the website | 17:22 |
| LetterRip | how many submissions do you have? | 17:22 |
| Arc | around 90 at last count | 17:22 |
| LetterRip | ah ok, we will have a bit less than half that | 17:22 |
| Arc | still, thats a lot to sort through on the website | 17:23 |
| SRabbelier | damnit | 17:23 |

| SRabbelier | Totally forgot about it | 17:23 |
| LetterRip | heh | 17:23 |
| SRabbelier | next year! | 17:24 |
| Arc | its a lot of patience to enter the data back into melange. best way ive found is always middle-click apps from the dashboard to open them in a new tab, score, close tab, because otherwise hitting the back button or going back to the dashboard requires reloading the very long lists and then having to set the list to display them all if you have more than 50 | 17:24 |
| *** arun_ has joined #melange | 17:24 | |
| Arc | it would be great to be able to upload a CSV or somehow script uploading the scores | 17:24 |
| Arc | the PSF has given me a paid assistant this year to work with melange so I can't complain :-) | 17:25 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: you don't have to score anymore though | 17:25 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: you can just multi-select the proposals you want to accept | 17:26 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: and hit the "accept" button | 17:26 |
| Arc | SRabbelier: but how to put in order? | 17:26 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: what order? :) | 17:26 |
| Arc | SRabbelier: um, ok lets start over. first how can multi-select be done? there's no checkbox next to them | 17:27 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: not yet :) | 17:27 |
| Arc | ah | 17:27 |
| SRabbelier | but today/tomorrow | 17:27 |
| Arc | but still we're given a certain number of slots *and* we always lose students to de-duplication, so how do we specify backup students in the order we want? | 17:28 |
| Arc | or is that something i just need to keep on my own database so i know who to fill in | 17:28 |
| *** arun_ has quit IRC | 17:29 | |
| SRabbelier | Arc: ah, good point, we can make it tri-state? | 17:29 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: or do you really need an order in the backup students? | 17:29 |
| Arc | SRabbelier: we do need an order for them | 17:30 |
| SRabbelier | bah | 17:30 |
| Arc | it'd be nice to be able to say "bam, these 30 we definetly want" and then score just the next 5-10 as backups | 17:30 |
| Arc | iirc last year we lost 4 students to de-dup | 17:30 |
| Arc | no, 5. we took 4 backup students then gave the 5th slot to moinmoin | 17:31 |
| Arc | SRabbelier: the multi-select is definetly appealing. last year it was hours updating the scores each time (there were stages of refinement) | 17:32 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: would it be sufficient to have an inline-editable note field for each student? | 17:32 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: so that you can just number them yourself? | 17:32 |
| Arc | SRabbelier: no it'd be fine to keep records myself so long as carol/etc know we need to be able to replace students as de-dup happens | 17:33 |
| *** tansell-laptop has quit IRC | 17:33 | |
| SRabbelier | Arc: In that case, do you even need a tri-state? | 17:33 |
| Arc | SRabbelier: no, doesnt seem that way | 17:33 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: wouldn't just making it very easy to accept proposals be enough? | 17:33 |
| SRabbelier | excellent :) | 17:33 |
| SRabbelier | and of course, during de-dup, when you un-accept one, and accept another, the de-dup will be updated | 17:34 |
| Arc | SRabbelier: yea KISS is a good design philosophy | 17:34 |
| SRabbelier | perfect | 17:34 |
| Arc | our process in the PSF is every student is required to provide a code patch by the 18th, at which time the project under us also give their preferences for students in order | 17:35 |
| *** lonocvb has quit IRC | 17:35 | |
| Arc | so this weekend I'll go through and split up the list by project to make sure we have everyone | 17:35 |
| * SRabbelier nods | 17:36 | |
| Arc | then the 19-20th is when the lists are combined and final review is done | 17:36 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: great | 17:36 |
| Arc | tagging would make it a little easier because I wouldnt need to cut up the list for everyone, but we're doing our own metrics to measure success of the big female applicant drive we ran this year | 17:37 |
| Arc | so the offline stuff would be needed anyway. if we don't do this we don't have a good measuring stick to guage success | 17:38 |
| * SRabbelier nods | 17:38 | |
| Arc | i also generally do some stats on nationality, timezone, and nationality to see where we need to focus next year and help match mentors better | 17:39 |
| Arc | it'd be great if we could add fields to students and export that data to google docs to render charts and such :-) </wislist> | 17:42 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: free-form tags? :) | 17:42 |
| Arc | tags aren't easily exported to a spreadsheet for sorting and graphing | 17:43 |
| *** arun_ has joined #melange | 17:44 | |
| Arc | i mean like gender (note: this should not be a binary option, we had 2 trans applicants this year), timezone, etc | 17:44 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: (we know, it's already tri-state isn't it?) | 17:45 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: so you need arbitrary key-value pairs, yes? | 17:45 |
| Arc | bingo | 17:45 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: gender-male? | 17:46 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: as a tag? :P | 17:46 |
| Arc | yea but then how does that get from a tag into a chart? | 17:46 |
| Arc | what im saying is itd be nice to be able to tie into google docs to just get automatic charts | 17:46 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: we can pimp it during export | 17:47 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: maybwe | 17:47 |
| Arc | also how to graphically display which applications don't have a gender tag? | 17:47 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: gender-none? | 17:48 |
| SRabbelier | just brainstorming | 17:48 |
| Arc | no i mean, when you look at a list of 90 students, how do you determine which ones need gender data entered still? | 17:48 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: ah | 17:48 |
| Arc | on my spreadsheet these are columns and i can just go down the columns looking for blanks | 17:49 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: maybe easier if we allow orgs to specify bonus fields? :P | 17:49 |
| *** LetterRip has left #melange | 17:49 | |
| Arc | thats what im thinking | 17:49 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: that shouldn't be too hard | 17:49 |
| Arc | then also we could assign students to teams in a custom column too, and sort by it | 17:49 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: I can add that for this year | 17:50 |
| Arc | really? thatd be awesome | 17:50 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: how much easier would that make things? | 17:50 |
| Arc | that one feature is why i need to keep a separate spreadsheet which is easily a majority of my annual work | 17:50 |
| *** arun_ has quit IRC | 17:50 | |
| SRabbelier | Arc: you owe me chocolate :P | 17:52 |
| Arc | we have more data than melange can hold, and the only way to manage that data is through an outside resource. it'd save so much time not to have to do that | 17:52 |
| Arc | heh if it saves me even one all-nighter this year some chocolate is a small price to pay | 17:53 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: caramel chocolate ^^ | 17:53 |
| Arc | i'll bring it to the mentor's summit :-) | 17:53 |
| *** skbohra has joined #melange | 17:54 | |
| SRabbelier | Arc: done | 17:54 |
| Arc | thank you :-) | 17:55 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: inline editing? | 17:55 |
| Arc | inline? | 17:56 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: (with somewhat akward save button at the top) | 17:56 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: in the list view | 17:56 |
| Arc | you mean on the table? that'd work | 17:56 |
| Arc | esp since a lot of the data can be entered bulk | 17:56 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: can do | 17:56 |
| Arc | i'm going out for a drink tonight. i just realized i haven't left the house the job I did Tuesday and haven't done anything but answer gsoc email and talk to students on irc since | 17:59 |
| SRabbelier | Arc: excellent idea | 17:59 |
| Arc | you should take a break too at some point, i cant imagine much offline time over the last two weeks | 18:00 |
