Hi ymc98 !

Any pointers making draft proposal?

Btw, what is your area of interest... the project on which you are putting forth the proposal?

ymc98: here some hints: http://teom.org/blog/kde/how-to-write-a-kick-ass-proposal-for-google-summer-of-code/

in general the same rules that apply for a CV also apply to a GSoC proposal: it should be nicely done, properly formated, well structured and easy to read, and last but not least, on topic :)

Bertl : Thanks!

It

no problem at all, the community here will help you

supragya : I think I should consult my professor to select the proposal to put forth. I must take the pragmatic approach since it's my first time.

Hello!

off for now ... bbl

BAndiT1983, something crossed my mind... for VS plugin

FFmpegSource2 plugin has this problem

I don't see if we will need audio support

as we are only concerned with Sequences like DNG

However, generally exports are done in sequence to remove lossy quality and an mp3/wav along with them

audio may come later, but it's seldom encoded in CDNG

have you succeeded in creating a simple plugin, which can be called from script?

[have you succeeded in creating a simple plugin, which can be called from script?] -will by tomorrow

tomorrow exam

no problem, take your time for study first

BAndiT1983, I am going to try to change the preview size now

you said it wasnt fixed, right?

you have to change the image buffer size, as it is used for preview

Ok! No problem! :)

I loved it, although didnt get a lot of points xD

first place had close to 50 millions

yeah, the score

Team event? Like ACM ICPC?

it's a team event, i dont know ACM ICPC

not the same thing

it's open for everyone, not just universities

and it's just 2 parts

and the final

"hackathon" - on a topic?

with inputs

the better the output, the better the score

you control a fleet of autonomous cars, taxi-like cars.

and you have to distribute the rides along your fleet

more like a TSP so some sort

Teaspoon?

what is TSP?

oh yeah

It is a variant given you have less cabs than passengers

containing the problem statement

sent, check private chat

hmm

here is it

-

will look later

It's more of a coding challenge than a "hackathon"

Yeah, I can concur with that

I am in clg, so get wifi

but I mean

but generally, for around 10$, we get 1GB per day for 84 days

This is oveall

that's nice!

why exactly 84 days?

Datagiri xD

thats a great competition

Well because of this, we have 10$ for 84GB than 10$ for 500MB (earlier days)

(earlier days) - 2 years ago

yes, for good

supragya

Anyone online?

[do you know where is the image buffer size on Processing Test?] - point me the source of your concern

supragya: who would be here?

Bertl_oO, that's why I said not sure

So, I wanted to make sure.

to see logs of chat

[I had a doubt which I asked last time] - ask again

haha..great :D

Operation Octopus - military operation? SWAT? SEAL?

some say its military... :)

who knows

I did read about things that affect sesnor calibration, and though it'd be better to know and learn more now.

best check with se6astian|away when he is around

Yeah, the timezone is creating mess. I saw Alex and Sebastian are mentor of the task.

I did completed T872

I guess I should mail him, he does frequently check his mail.

nmdis1999, he is here too many times

I see, I'll mail just in case. And be online. It's just midsem because of which I'm coming online less.

midsem - same here

(didn't get rid of sh, just so you know... ) will make makefile soon

well, point me to the source and I'll take a look

Links are here: https://lab.apertus.org/T872

Funfact: TofuLynx made Github profile just for this XD

lol, great. I'm new as well. Really didn't do much on github.

nmdis1999: so, first thing I see is bad indentation and spacing

nmdis1999: e.g. #include<> -> #include <>

//Checking the input -> // Checking the input

indentation is used to make the code more readable, i.e. if you enter a block of code, you indent the code block

(they should have the same indentation level)

similar on line 50/51/55

Bertl_oO when will you do the feedback with BAndiT1983?

ok :)

I would appreciate it

also problems with spacing/indentation here

where?

you mean, if (){, should be if () { ?

ok!

same goes for while, for, etc

how 64, 110?

o_O, okay...

I was looking at it... thinking XD

Guess, we'll need to work on that. :P

while 110/11 and 114/115 have four

nmdis1999 , there is a code guidelines on Phabricator :)

Bertl_oO, what about line 141 - 147?

supragya: well, I'm not a big fan of this kind of indentation, and if you do it, it should probably match the first line

Bertl_oO, I am not too, but given it would cross the length (256 or something), this looked cleaner

Bertl_oO, Linux Kernel, you got my inspiration

Looking forward for it :)

Oops, that was a copying issue

Nope xD

Just a question

Thanks :)

if (x%2 == 0) looks more readable to me than if (x % 2 == 0)

When will you guys do feedback though?

Never thought that way

Bert1_oO : that is indeed a good way!

Btw, who is Alex?

Alex is mentor of the T722 but I don't know who he is

Debayering challenge?

https://www.apertus.org/magic-lantern-getting-to-grips-with-axiom-beta-image-sensor-article-feb-2016

You will select students during the application period?

BAndiT1983 is Andrej

Ok :)

I don't think so... but given nicks rule on IRC, unsure

let me rephrase that (as it is confusing): we will go through the applications and kind of interview the students together with their submissions to get an idea who is suitable for GSoC 2018 and who is not

How does the slot system works?

Google decides how many slots we get, we decide how many of those slots we can handle

I don't know how they end up with numbers

How many did you guys got last year?

last year we got 3 slots

note that you can still work on a task even if you do not get a slot assigned, but google won't pay for it

Supragya it was 3

1 was "given up"

yup

So are you expecting more this year?

^Exactly!

Hmm

Bertl_oO, I didn't know 1 completed... so 1 gave up + 1 given up = 2 for me

They usually don't decrease the slots, as far as I've observed the trend.

Wow, and are they old in GSoC?

Yeah same

also sympy

@Bert1_oO : How many applications you guys received last year?

I think he meant that they are quite popular.

Yeah

That's a big number.

Going afk, will be back soon. :)

Bye @TofuLynx

Truth be told, I did do selection tests for 3 organisations

So I belong here now

In December, I was browsing stuff on Inkscape and Blender organization, it was hard to get help there I didn't got any response.

C++ one?

TofuLynx?

Is it for me @Bert1_oO?

Bertl_oO, will do

GTG now, have to study for midsem. Goodnight all. :)

Bertl_oO: So I have to put copyright on the code?

all of us yes

Yeah supragya, although it's hard to describe it

put MIT

read it... never read what this license did

Can you explain me how to put the copyright?

Bertl_oO, who stops from using these codes in proprietary codebases?

And the law

Ah ok xD just that?

Ok

for the license, it depends on the license you choose, they usually have a guide how to apply the license

so go with it

supragya I think I prefer GPLv3

your wish TofuLynx

I have my code under GPLv2 and the hardware under OHL v1.2 at the moment

Bertl_oO, I have heard people like GPLv2 not v3... cannot recall why

GPLv2 is not as strict as GPLv3 but not as permissive as MIT or similar

it's just that line?

Bertl_oO, do you deal with OpenCine and VapourSynth, or BAndiT1983 is the one I should talk to?

sure thing :)

Hi ymc98, how are you? Here for GSoC, I guess, right?

I'm not the person doing the mailing here either ... but we will make sure that folks working on hardware related tasks (FGPA, Kernel, maybe T724) will have access to the hardware (either physical or remotely, depending on the task)

Don't mention :), any projects you chose ymc98 ?

That depends on project doesn't it?

nice ! :)

Thanks sebastian, for the information. I'll check all the links that you mentioned. :)

good night

nn
