| 01:20.58 | ryao | pokoko222: Yes. |
| 01:21.22 | ryao | pokoko222: I think people are suggesting that you apply for multiple things. If multiple people apply, only 1 will be accepted. |
| 01:21.31 | pokoko222 | they are the ones with the final word right? google is just intermediary |
| 01:21.40 | ryao | I believe so. |

| 01:23.07 | pokoko222 | you are so evil :D |
| 01:23.09 | censorydep | pokoko, I have heard from some others that there is a balance. You don't want to apply to too many as your proposals will be weak. But, all-your-eggs-in-one-basket may not be a winning strategy either. |
| 01:23.35 | pokoko222 | so far I got it all on one |
| 01:23.38 | ryao | Or you could propose your own ideas and have a better chance of no one else proposing it. |

| 01:24.01 | pokoko222 | so far I say, some better dude might come out |
| 01:24.24 | censorydep | well, if you feel like you're kicking ass, then I think it's definitely reasonable to show you work to the mentor and see what they think your chances are. |

| 05:21.25 | Andrew_Askins | Does anyone have advice for a first year student with limited experience who is eager to get involved and learn and really wants to participate in the program? |
| 05:22.45 | Catfish_Man | Andrew_Askins: get involved early, self-motivate as much as possible, abandon fear and ego |
| 05:25.58 | Andrew_Askins | Catfish_Man What about as far as actually applying? I'm a freshman computer science student who knows Java, and that's about it, but I'm confident I can learn as I go. However all of the orgs seem to want extensive experience. How do I convince them I can do it? |
| 05:26.53 | Catfish_Man | Andrew_Askins: the usual two suggestions are a) to look for an easy-ish project from last year and see if you can prototype it, or at least understand roughly understand the solution |
| 05:27.05 | Catfish_Man | and/or b) to try fixing a small bug or two in your project of choice to get a feel for it |

| 05:32.55 | Andrew_Askins | @Catfish_Man: hahaha, fair enough. i've been looking at apertium and catroid. but you're saying the best thing to do would be to try coding something first, either a minor bug fix or old project, and then work on the proposal? |
| 05:33.36 | Catfish_Man | Andrew_Askins: or alternate, or do both at once, I don't know. :) |
| 05:33.38 | ojwb | Andrew_Askins: that's the better way round, as you'll learn quite a bit from working on the code |
| 05:33.50 | ojwb | which should help you write a better proposal |
| 05:34.06 | Andrew_Askins | okay, great! appreciate the advice. sorry for sounding dumb, just trying to get things straight |

| 05:38.07 | Catfish_Man | most projects have some combination of mailing list/forum, irc channel/xmpp room, and bug tracker |
| 05:38.39 | Catfish_Man | for the vaguely competent ones there's usually a "get involved" link somewhere reasonably obvious on their website that covers that |

| 13:19.21 | Zor | it seems very logical that if a mentor decides that there are no projects he wants to mentor, he can apply as a student instead |

| 13:19.55 | MatthewWilkes | Zor: Were you aware there's a FAQ document? |
| 13:20.17 | MatthewWilkes | I only ask as so many people seem to have not read it, was wondering if maybe the link isn't showing for everyone |
| 13:20.35 | Zor | MatthewWilkes: that's not quite the thing I'm asking though |
| 13:21.01 | Zor | I know a person cannot be a student and mentor, effectively, at the same time |
| 13:21.22 | aghisla | I think that the person should decide whether being student or mentor prior registration. |
| 13:21.24 | MatthewWilkes | and you should "plan accordingly" as to which one you want to be in a given year |
| 13:22.07 | MatthewWilkes | Zor: If you've made a mistake and want to withdraw as a mentor you can contact the melange mailing list and they will remove you |
| 13:23.08 | gevaerts | Zor: Allowing to register as a mentor first would also allow looking at the other proposals first and then writing your own , i.e. cheating |

| 13:55.36 | gevaerts | tjerman: it depends |
| 13:56.03 | gevaerts | In many cases the student gets to choose, but the organisations don't have to ask, they can also agree between themselves |

| 13:59.37 | gevaerts | They will get told about duplicates near the end of the selection period |
| 13:59.39 | MatthewWilkes | tjerman: The student should voice a preference, you can do this by telling the org you prefer "By the way, I also applied for x, y, z elsewhere. If you should happen to select my project and there is a conflict with another org my preference is to work with you on this" |
| 13:59.53 | gevaerts | In general it's good form to say you applied elsewhere too |

| 21:35.58 | qballer1 | Thanks |
| 21:36.03 | ojwb | with the standard footnote that dividing slots by number of apps is pretty meaningless |
| 21:36.31 | qballer1 | ojwb, explaind? |
| 21:36.43 | qballer1 | explain* please |
| 21:37.02 | ojwb | seems popular to go from the above to concluding you have a ~30% chance of acceptance |
| 21:37.20 | ojwb | but there's a lot of junk applications which stand no chance |
| 21:37.33 | Fatbag | If you graph number of students applying versus number of accepted applications, you'll get a sigmoid |
| 21:37.34 | ojwb | one line apps, pastes from the ideas list |
| 21:37.44 | qballer1 | So that means that if you try a little that you chances increase by a lot |
| 21:37.48 | ojwb | incomprehensible ideas |
| 21:38.18 | ojwb | qballer1: yes, unless you're one of those applicants |

| 21:43.52 | Razinov | ojwb: "point 3 is the same as point 1" seems fine? |
| 21:43.54 | ojwb | you could say "English grammar" perhaps |
| 21:44.00 | ojwb | well, that too |
| 21:44.06 | Razinov | ojwb: thank you |
| 21:44.08 | gevaerts | Razinov: *a* question |

| 21:44.20 | tlikarish | @Razinov "I have a question about some English grammar." |
| 21:44.32 | gevaerts | wouldn't use "some" there |
| 21:44.39 | Razinov | thank you all |
| 21:45.22 | ojwb | dropping articles in English seems a common mistake for native speakers from some languages, but it rarely actually causes a problem to reading it |
| 21:45.33 | ojwb | well, at least to me as a native English speaker |
| 21:45.44 | ojwb | perhaps it's harder if it's a second language |
| 21:45.59 | ojwb | you just read them in where they're missing, like I did! |
| 21:46.27 | tlikarish | It sounded less fluent to me but I understood the meaning. |

| 22:14.33 | gsocbot | gevaerts: "chances" is Odds, chances or probability really do not come into play for GSoC. Rambling off numbers or asking What are the odds of getting accepted... is really quite useless as one's acceptance is not dictated by luck or numbers, but by the quality of your proposal and your skills instead. |
