Re: [Soc-coordination] GSoC begins, some important information
Hi. My project is the Automated Multi-Arch cross-building and bootstrapping one. I'm going to concentrate on circular dependencies breaking and making a tool to sequence bootstrap builds. In the past weeks I studied about the related documentation available at debian wiki and other internet sites. I don't have so much things to write about this because I was just understanding all the documentations and definitions related to the problem. As a conclusion of this first step I may say that I am very interested in the project. I don't have all the stuffs clearly in my mind but I hope I understood the main things. Also I'm glad to see that the debian/ubuntu community is very helpful. Currently I am doing I bash script that returns the build sequence of a given package and its dependencies. If the sequence has a cycle, it will return the dependency graph. I had some problems using xdeb to make the cross-build because xdeb needs the source of the packages. To solve this problem, I am going to try a patch. The following step is to use the script to find the loops of a given set of packages needed to bootstrap Debian in a given architecture and so brake the cycles. Finally, I'm going to be able to make a tool to automate the bootstrap process.

I don't know what is the detail level you are waiting from our report. We do not want the juciy details, just an overview of how things are going, the report can be written answered to 3 points: - a few lines of what you have been working in previous 2 weeks (I wrote the spec for this, then update the code that you can see at xXX and I talked with my mentor about this and that) - report in what you got stuck, and if you solved it and how. - report what you are planning to do in the future 2 weeks. Also, the reports from Ishan and Guillaume are quite OK, take a look to them :) Ana ___ Soc-coordination mailing list Soc-coordination@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/soc-coordination

[Soc-coordination] GSoC begins, some important information
[If you are a GSOC student I have cc'ed you, I won't do it again. Please subscribe to the coordination mailing list [1] if you haven't yet!] Hi! In case you have forgotten, today is the first day of the GSoC, time to start coding! You are very welcome to send a report (or blog) about how your bonding period went and if ask if you have any doubts. There are some small things we want to tell/ask you all: - Please, send me in a private email how to contact you in case we don't have news from you. At least a phone number (include all the needed prefixes for international calls!). - If you haven't yet, please add your project proposal to the Debian wiki so everybody interested in the Debian community can know more about your project and maybe even help you with ideas and suggestions. - If you have a blog where you are planning to publish posts about your project, please let us know so we can include it on Planet Debian. Add a hackergotchi if you have one. Also, take a look at http://wiki.debian.org/PlanetDebian, especially the What Can I Post On Planet part. - There are *two* compulsory evaluations students and mentors must file. If the student and mentor do not file it, Google will mark the project as failed and won't fund the student. If you are a mentor who can not file the evaluations, please let to know in advance so a orga admin can file it for you. The dates are: - midterm 11-15 July at 19:00 UTC - final 22-26 August at 19:00 UTC - *VERY IMPORTANT* Besides the Google evaluations, students must write 5 reports that should be sent to this mailing list[1] If you are planning to blog those reports, please email a copy to this list anyway. Do not send a link, send the text itself to the list so it gets archived for future years. We haven't thought yet what happens if a student fails to send a report, please do not make us have to do it ;) So the calendar for the reports is the following: May 2011 Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 -- Last week of bonding period. 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 -- Monday 23, coding starts 29 30 31 June 2011 Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa 1 2 3 4 -- 2nd week, 1st report 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 -- 4th week, 2nd report
