 The goal remains, though the mentors in that meeting didn't mention
 it; give them some slack, they haven't been especially heavy
 contributors to Sugar Labs.  Of the three mentors present, Divyanshu,
 Onuwa, and Ibiam, only Ibiam has been a recently active contributor,
 and not to the Wiki, Help activity or https://help.sugarlabs.org/

 Re: Hello World.  It is a coding example, has no use otherwise, so it
 should not be in activities.sugarlabs.org; I've disabled it.  Version
 will be incremented when a release is made.  Repository has no release
 tags.  We need an activity maintainer for it.  A checklist for
 maintaining an activity is here;

 https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-docs/blob/master/src/
 contributing.md#checklist---maintainer

 Across the activity set, we have very few activity maintainers.  This
 will change as the GSoC coding period begins; particularly as Yash and
 Rahul begin working.

 Back on topic; Rudra's project has a purpose; it is a subset of
 activity maintenance, but the coding is automation that will be used
 _once_.  Possibly a brain-numbing exercise, akin to road construction
 during the Irish potato famine.

 I've been a reviewer for the pull requests so far; four of them just
 now.  Mentors, Walter, Tony, and others could help by reviewing
 Rudra's pull requests as they are made rather than leaving it to me.
 ;-)

 @Rudra, my recommendation is to set an order of work; start with the
 demonstration set of activities (Fructose), because we keep these
 maintained well, then work on the activities that Tony has listed as
 working with Ubuntu 18.04 or Thomas has listed as working with Fedora
 28.

 @Rudra, also think through the whole ecosystem from coding to user,
 and propose changes to your project in response to your reading of
 the current mailing list thread.  We're not expecting you to be a
 compliant robot, but an imaginative student.  Situation reminds me of
 something I saw in the student guide;

 https://google.github.io/gsocguides/student/finding-
 the-right-project.html

 "Don’t be that person: Cut and pasting an idea from the organization
 page and turning that in as your project’s description is a big no-no.
 You’ll be expected to research and submit your own ideas about how to
 accomplish the project your way, not just state the end result."

Hello Vipul,

I checked out your blog post and i really like your blog in general.

But there was a part when you said this:  "Again, GSoC is *not* an
internship, it is simply a program. Nothing more, nothing less.". Well, i
think GSoC is a summer internship program by google. I believe you can put
it that way. But correct me if i'm wrong.

By the way, are you on instagram? I have a bit of an audience in the coding
space. I would love to post your blog post in a story and link to your
account by mentioning you in the story.

Thanks.

A quick reminder, Vipul, you are to create a blog based around your project

How will you be doing this?

Hello Utkarsh,

Glad to see you're interested in participating in our open source
organization.

Below are some useful links to hopefully get you started:

Sugar labs wiki for GSoC: https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Summer_of_Code

GSoC's full timeline so you can know exactly when to start sending in your
proposals: https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/how-it-works/#timeline

Here is the link to the list of projects available to work on  in this
year's GSoC: https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Summer_of_Code/2018


Warm welcome to the organization and good luck on GSoC 2018.

Best Regards,
Abdul

Re: [Sugar-devel] Want to contribute

Hello there Arhant,

Firstly i don't fully understand what you meant by "messed up", it would
help us guide you if you could explain better.

But in regards to the GSOC program, it's open for every university students
and registration starts around march of next year i think.

You could contribute to sugarlabs by checking out our github repos and
contributing code to any place you feel you're capable of.

I hope, that, to some extent answers your question(s).

Hello,

I just checked in the guides, you should be doing this when you want to
build, your logs show that you aren't:

for module in sugar{-datastore,-artwork,-toolkit,-toolkit-gtk3,}; do
dnf builddep $module
done

Hey,

Are you sure you ran the git clone request properly?

[Sugar-devel] (no subject)

[Glide]

Hello,
I want to let you guys know that the issue was that i was on ubuntu which
didn't work with the chroot style of installation. I should have used sudo
apt-get install sucrose but that also won't work except i upgrade to ubuntu
17.04. I'm currently doing the update and i believe everything will be fine
after it. Thanks for the help.
