arunmathew88Excuse me!!12:03
arunmathew88I have a problem with my proposal12:03
arunmathew88My Proposal seems to be modified. I cant see the section 2,4,5 & 6 of the template of organisation, which was in my original Proposal. It was there a few days back too. Will it be a problem?12:04
arunmathew88Hello12:05
MatthewWilkesarunmathew88: There are very few melange developers, and it sounds like you'd need someone with access to the soc-ghop instance to have a look for you, please be patient, and if you don't get help before you need to go email is the best bet12:11
arunmathew88whom shall I mail? just in case?12:11
MatthewWilkes[email protected]12:13
arunmathew88k12:14
arunmathew88I ll wait,,12:14
arunmathew88if i see no response later also then I ll mail12:14

dionesSRabbelier: Hi!13:42
SRabbelierdiones: heya!13:43
dionesSRabbelier: I was able to remove some of the wrong warnings in pylint13:44
dionesbut13:44
SRabbelierdiones: ah, nice!13:44
dionesapp engine have some members that pylint cant check correctly13:44
dionesfor instance the Module.get_by_keyname()13:45
SRabbelierdiones: ah, what's wrong with it?13:45
dioneswell it returns the result of a Module.get()13:46
dionesthat in some cases returns a list13:46
dionesand so pylint thinks that get by key name also returns a list13:47
SRabbelierdiones: ah, and sometimes a single one13:47
dionesso it will think that we are incurring into an error when we try to access Modules members from the result of get by key name13:48
dionesand there are several similar problems13:49
dionesthere is an alternative, as I was informed by logilab13:49
diones(the company that develops pylint)13:50
SRabbelierdiones: oh, nice :)13:50
dioneswe can add a special comment to the code to make pylint ignore checking certain areas of the code13:52
dionesI believe that this is just to costly to do on melange with little result13:53
dionesthe other option is to add certain options to pylint config file so that he will just ignore some attributes13:55
dionesthere are of course two problems with that approach13:56
dionesthe first is that we may actually want pylint to check that attribute like 'key' that would otherwise be ignored13:57
dionesand the seccond is that it doesn't provide a good coverage of all cases13:57
dionesif we take the get_by_keyname() method for instance13:58
dionesthe result is considered as a list13:58
dioneswhile it should be a Model13:58
dionesif we make pylint ignore key in the code, right now most of the pylint errors would disappear13:59
dionesbut as soon as we use another method/attribute of the model, pylint would accuse an error because list does not have the 'name' member, for instance14:01
dionesSRabbelier: so what do you think?14:02
SRabbelierdiones: we do have those comments in several places in the code already, right?14:02
dionesSRabbelier: Have we?14:03
SRabbelierdiones: aye14:03
dionesSRabbelier: Where?14:03
SRabbelierdiones: grep is your friend :P14:03
dionesdamn linux14:03
SRabbelierdiones: hehe, or eclipse search14:04

solydzajsdiones: please have a look at our pylintrc file and do_pylint.sh script to get an idea which messages are disabled and which are ignored14:29
solydzajsArthurLiu: did student submit any proposals ?14:30
ArthurLiuyes, but outside of our allocated slots14:30
solydzajsArthurLiu: I can remove his Student Role but that will also require me to remove his proposal from the system14:32
ArthurLiuthat's ok14:32
solydzajsI need an email from student to confirm that and URL to his/her proposal14:33

*** bitsweat has joined #melange15:03
bitsweathey melangers, our mentors have been marking proposals as ineligible as a way of winnowing down a shortlist of finalists15:07
bitsweatwe heard from a student, however, that they were notified of our "decision"15:07
bitsweatdespite the "marked as ineligible" message showing up as a *private* review15:07
bitsweatis this expected?15:08
bitsweatwe're essentially leaking accept/nonaccept status before the 20th when we planned to directly, personally let students know15:08
*** diones has joined #melange15:10
bitsweatso, can students see that their proposal is ineligible despite being in a private review?15:11
bitsweator do they see a different listing of student proposals, with their proposal segregated?15:11
dionesSRabbelier: No, we do not have these comments in melange :)15:12
dionesSRabbelier: I had to do a couple things so I couldn't answer right away ;)15:13
SRabbelierdiones: I'm sure we do, solydzajs added some15:13
SRabbelierbitsweat: yes, this is expected15:13
SRabbelierbitsweat: marking them as inelegible is not the intended way to filter down the lisat15:13
dionesSRabbelier: I just searched my whole workspace and I couldn't find any15:14
solydzajsdiones: this feature has been added not so long ago, so yes it is possible that it was not present when you marked your proposals as ineligible15:14
SRabbeliersolydzajs: wrong user15:15
SRabbeliersolydzajs: you meant bitsweat, no?15:15
solydzajsdiones: now whenever you mark proposal as ineligible the private comment is send, if you want to let student know about it you can always post a public comment15:15
dionessolydzajs: What?15:15
solydzajsoh crap15:15
solydzajsyep15:15
solydzajsdiones: sorry my mistake those were replies to bitsweat15:16
bitsweatit was said on the gsoc list that this was the appropriate tool15:16
dionesk, np :)15:16
solydzajsit's up to the org to decide how they will use "marking as ineligible" feature15:17
dionesSRabbelier: Here this is how you enable a checking with pylint: # pylint: enable-msg=E110115:17
solydzajswhatever works best for them15:17
bitsweatsolydzajs:  sure15:17
bitsweatit appears to be private though15:17
bitsweatbut is actually public?15:17
dionesSRabbelier: And to disable: # pylint: disable-msg=E060215:17
dionesJust try searching for pylint15:18
SRabbeliersolydzajs: huh?15:18
SRabbeliersolydzajs: I thought the intended use for 'mark as inelegible' is for spam proposals only?15:18
dionesI'll have to go now, I'll be right back in 2h15:19
SRabbelierdiones: see access.py15:19
SRabbelierdiones: +    # pylint: disable-msg=W070615:19
SRabbelierdiones: I'm not sure what you're searching with15:19
SRabbelierdiones: but it's obviously broken :P15:19
solydzajsSRabbelier: it is but you can abuse the system :-)15:19
SRabbeliersolydzajs: they shouldn't though, since we use the number of inelegible proposals to determine how much spam applications there were, right?15:20
solydzajsSRabbelier: but yes intended use is for spam proposals15:20
solydzajsSRabbelier: true15:20
bitsweatthe intended use is completely opaque15:21
bitsweatperhaps not to people here :)15:21
*** Lennie|Gone is now known as Lennie15:21
bitsweatbut to users who only have guidance from the docs and the gsoc list15:21
