Comments/ Feedback on Students proposals

Hello mentors and contributors, We are getting good number of proposal submissions now. Since the deadline is getting closer the number will keep increasing I suppose. The deadline for proposal submission is 6th April, 1900 UTC. Though proposals are submitted via google-melange a copy of the proposal is included on the wiki as well. Therefore mentors can use google-melange to add their comments and others can add comments on the proposals talk page. Mentor also can post their comment on the google-melange to the proposals talk page, if they wish. Your comments will help the students to make their proposals smarter. Mentors can start giving scores on proposals. But I think it is better to wait till you get all the proposals for the idea and then start giving marks. There is no hard rule and always we are open for ideas, so please feel free to discuss any idea or concern. Thanks for the support. -- Regards, Buddhike Chandradeepa Kurera(bckurera) Fedora Ambassador - APAC region Event Liaison - Design Team Email: bckurera(a)fedoraproject.org | IRC: bckurera

GSOC intoduction of my proposal
by Jørn Loamx 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Good morning/evening all I would just like to introduce myself. My name is Jørn Lomax, I'm 23 and a second year CS student. I have applied to help with the Fedora audio spin for GSOC. I have a degree in music and I regularly use different studio software to play around with music. I would easily say music is my biggest hobby, with programming coming a very close second. I have made my application over at the offical application site and added myself to this mailing list As I'm applying *very* late, I haven't really had time to get to know anyone involved with the projects. From what i have seen in the mailing list archives, there has not been much talk of this idea. I would really like to help with this project as I feel that there should be a studio distro/spin that is FOSS and doesn't rely on any libraries that are not compatible with the fedora philosophy. I also feel like I have some ideas that would help it be a spin that is a cut above the other studio centric distros out there. I hope you will consider this proposal, despite it coming in at the last minute and that I look forward to be able to work with you all :) regards, Jørn Lomax

by Zack Garza 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Hello, all - I just thought I would introduce myself. My name is Zack, and I am hoping to participate to GSOC this year by helping contribute to the Fedora Project. My proposal is based creating spins of Fedora based on using JBoss tools and community packages for application development, which I've submitted it over at Google Melange<http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/review/google/gsoc2012/dzack/1> . I would greatly appreciate any feedback or comments on it, as I would really like to produce something the community will enjoy using. I am also still currently looking for a mentor, and would welcome any guidance in that respect. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hopefully working with you all! -Zack Garza User Page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Dzack

Public Comment for students - Proposal submissions on google-melange
by Buddhike Kurera 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Dear Students, Last night I have gone though some of the proposals submitted to google-melange system. Some proposals look smart and some proposals are hard to read. Here my concern is not the technical aspects but the formatting of the proposal. Google-melange text editor provides enough facilities for you to make your proposal submission easy to read. You can bold, underline, italic, align, indenting, bullets and more. Please feel free to use them and make the submission more readable. Just a copy and past from the wiki make things hard to read. Bare mind your submission on the google-melange is the main text that mentor go through, therefore presenting it nice would be an extra advantage you achieve. If you are not already gone through the proposal writing section on students-guide please do refer to the following link, http://en.flossmanuals.net/GSoCStudentGuide/ch008_writing-a-proposal/ If you need to insert an image/ diagram please cite it and provide the link at the bottom. You can use the fedora wiki to upload the image or any other public space where anyone can access. However I think it is good to use fedora infra such as fedora wiki as much as possible. If you need any clarification or more information or support, feel free to reply this thread. Looking forward to read some smart looking proposals. Happy Summer Coding !! -- Regards, Buddhike Chandradeepa Kurera(bckurera) Fedora Ambassador - APAC region Event Liaison - Design Team Email: bckurera(a)fedoraproject.org | IRC: bckurera
