JLP | mithro: pong | 21:54 |
mithro | i kind of forgot to submit an application to Google SOC, it needs to be in today | 21:55 |
JLP | mithro: is TP going to be a sponsor? | 21:57 |
JLP | mentro? | 21:57 |
mithro | JLP: well, it can't hurt to apply to be a mentoring org | 21:57 |
JLP | mithro: that would be wasome | 21:57 |
mithro | JLP: would you be willing to be a mentor? | 21:58 |
JLP | mithro: i'm not sure i've got enough insight into protocol | 21:58 |
mithro | could you also be the "backup organization administrator", Lee doesn't have a google account | 21:58 |
mithro | JLP: a mentor is more about guiding the person about the project and introducing them to OSS foo | 21:59 |
JLP | mithro: oh, then I guess i can do it | 21:59 |
mithro | whats your google account again? | 22:00 |
mithro | then we need to write some stuff for the following questions | 22:00 |
mithro | What is your plan for dealing with disappearing students? | 22:00 |
mithro | What is your plan for dealing with disappearing mentors? | 22:00 |
mithro | What steps will you take to encourage students to interact with your project's community before, during and after the program? | 22:00 |
mithro | What will you do to ensure that your accepted students stick with the project after GSoC concludes? | 22:00 |
JLP | mithro: jrepin is my account i guess | 22:02 |
*** zipola has quit IRC | 22:02 | |
mithro | @ gmail.com? | 22:02 |
JLP | mithro: yes | 22:03 |
*** nash has joined #tp | 22:05 | |
mithro | nash: guess what you forgot to remind me about | 22:06 |
nash | mithro: Summer of code? | 22:07 |
mithro | yes | 22:07 |
mithro | deadline is today | 22:07 |
JLP | mithro: first two questions are quite wierd | 22:07 |
nash | I remembered last night - but my computer was switched off on the floor | 22:08 |
nash | My deak was in pieces waiting for the council to dump ;-) | 22:08 |
jotham | the joys of moving | 22:08 |
nash | So sorry - however I can try and pimp you a bit to Chris DiBona | 22:08 |
mithro | the second question I guess we could say "There are a couple of alternatives if a mentor disappears, one option is for another mentor to take over. ..." | 22:09 |
mithro | I've been pimping to Leslie | 22:09 |
nash | If you need a spare, put mt down. Else if you want to apply as a student yoursel,f put mt down ;-) | 22:09 |
mithro | Why is your organization applying to participate in GSoC 2007? What do you hope to gain by participating? | 22:09 |
mithro | mt? | 22:10 |
nash | Absolutely | 22:11 |
mithro | s/mt/me? | 22:11 |
nash | Well you are eligible for cash ;-) | 22:11 |
nash | Also you hope to gain publicity - which is nice | 22:11 |
* mithro has been up all night playing vid games | 22:12 | |
jotham | what game | 22:12 |
mithro | Titan Quest | 22:13 |
mithro | a friend got me hooked | 22:13 |
* jotham hits the goog | 22:13 | |
jotham | oh the game where you kill all the big monsters | 22:14 |
jotham | and ride a horse around | 22:14 |
jotham | yeah my friend likes it | 22:14 |
mithro | not really | 22:14 |
mithro | that is a different one | 22:14 |
jotham | oh | 22:14 |
nash | People keep trying to get me to play that - Titan Quest that is | 22:14 |
mithro | this is like a pretty diablo | 22:14 |
nash | Real popular on IRC channels | 22:14 |
nash | mithro: So when is the SoC deadline? | 22:15 |
jotham | ok found some screenshots, looks like dungeonsiege/nwn styles | 22:15 |
jotham | cool, does it have a good story? | 22:15 |
mithro | nash: ASAP | 22:15 |
mithro | nash: is it a public holiday in NSW? or only in SA? | 22:16 |
jotham | that looks addictive | 22:16 |
nash | Not a public holiday here :-( | 22:16 |
* nash is at work | 22:16 | |
mithro | nash: :/ | 22:17 |
jotham | that looks cool http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2006/096/reviews/928126_20060407_screen001.jpg | 22:17 |
tpb | <http://ln-s.net/JmD> (at image.com.com) | 22:17 |
mithro | nash: so you wanted to be a mentor then? | 22:18 |
nash | mithro: If you like - if you need someone | 22:19 |
nash | As long as it is not too much paper work ;-) | 22:19 |
mithro | nash: do you have a google account? | 22:21 |
nash | Yes: [email protected] | 22:21 |
* nash has meeting in a minute.. so will disappear suddenly | 22:22 | |
nash | back soon - have fun | 22:24 |
JLP | mithro: is soc still only about code (and not about art, documentation, webdesign ...) | 22:25 |
mithro | yes | 22:25 |
JLP | mithro: and still only one coder per application | 22:26 |
mithro | yes | 22:26 |
JLP | mithro: so we need to find some good reason for the why question first | 22:28 |
mithro | This one --> Why is your organization applying to participate in GSoC 2007? What do you hope to gain by participating? | 22:28 |
JLP | would working on a protocol count for this | 22:28 |
JLP | yup that one | 22:28 |
mithro | JLP: yes | 22:28 |
mithro | I think we need to try and get across how much more a students efforts mean in a small project | 22:29 |
JLP | so one of the ideas would be to get someone to work on creation of TP04 protocol | 22:29 |
JLP | if the project creates the protocol she would work on enhancing our protocol libraries/servers... to implement this new version | 22:30 |
JLP | so what this would bring us is to get the more interesting playable games faster and I think this is needed to attract more players/developers in th future | 22:32 |
jotham | can we use hubble pictures etc? | 22:40 |
jotham | like is that license a-okay | 22:40 |
JLP | jotham: http://hubblesite.org/copyright/ | 22:44 |
tpb | Title: HubbleSite - Copyright (at hubblesite.org) | 22:44 |
jotham | just would like something behind the starfield | 22:46 |
jotham | cool | 22:46 |
mithro | just need to fill out | 23:00 |
mithro | What is your plan for dealing with disappearing students? | 23:00 |
mithro | and | 23:00 |
mithro | What is your plan for dealing with disappearing mentors? | 23:00 |
mithro | any ideas people? | 23:00 |
jotham | yeah i have an idea | 23:01 |
jotham | google is your friend | 23:01 |
jotham | specifically those questions put into google show everyone elses answers | 23:02 |
JLP | for mentors we have backup mentors i guess | 23:02 |
jotham | so create a composit answer from that | 23:02 |
jotham | for instance http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5935 (scroll down) | 23:02 |
tpb | Title: Google Summer of Code (at wiki.squeak.org) | 23:02 |
jotham | god i have meetings all afternoon | 23:06 |
JLP | yeah it looks like having constant communication going between organisation and mentors and students is the best way to deal/prevent them dissapearing | 23:15 |
JLP | KDE also has some ice pages about SoC 2007 - http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Summer_of_Code/2007 | 23:20 |
tpb | <http://ln-s.net/JmH> (at techbase.kde.org) | 23:20 |
mithro | okay all submitted | 23:20 |
mithro | nash: so now you need to pimp to Chris :) | 23:21 |
nash | mithro: Can I see the application | 23:21 |
nash | Is it on the web somewher? | 23:21 |
mithro | nash: nope, it's a stupid webform thingy | 23:22 |
mithro | not my best work, but it'll have to do, I need to go sleep for a bit | 23:22 |
nash | okay | 23:25 |
nash | I'll look for Chris | 23:25 |
