| 00:03.56 | Toaster_ | Hey guys, do you think a photo of a 'proof of study' is sufficient or does it need to be scanned? |
| 00:24.31 | mmatak | @Toaster there is a beautiful mobile app "pdfScanner" which converts an img to PDF :) |
| 00:24.36 | mmatak | and it's free |
| 00:24.55 | mmatak | tinyPdf * is the name of the app |

| 00:41.07 | Toaster_ | mmatak: Still deciding to be honest |
| 00:42.31 | Toaster_ | Really interested in fedora but I work as an intern at redhat and am slightly afraid it wouldn't work out because of that (some of the mentors are literaly in the same office) |
| 00:59.55 | valorie | Toaster_: it does not work well to do GSoC while also doing an internship |
| 01:00.21 | Toaster_ | valorie: Why is that |
| 01:00.40 | valorie | GSoC is the equiv. of a full-time job |
| 01:00.57 | valorie | you have to have time to sleep and have fun too |
| 01:01.55 | Toaster_ | Studying is also basicaly a full-time job, won't be much of a change IMO |

| 03:12.13 | r0bby | minh: gsoc-support@google.com is probably the best place to ask |
| 03:12.31 | valorie | the address is mostly for getting your tshirt, etc. |
| 03:12.56 | r0bby | and questions like this too |
| 03:13.05 | valorie | if your home address doesn't have good mail service or is embargoed, dorm is probably better |

| 03:27.49 | olly | it's pretty common that students are at university abroad |
