Re: [scikit-learn] GSOC call for mentors

Hey guys, Maybe you guys could redirect some of them to related scikit-learn projects? For example, my project intends to interface scikit-learn: - https://github.com/jeff1evesque/machine-learning Even though it's a lot of JavaScript (web-interface), and puppet scripts for automating the buil

I agree, I just wanted to make sure we are on the same page, and that we can tell people "no we're not gonna do GSoC" instead of "err I don't know what's happening, maybe not?" ___ scikit-learn mailing list scikit-learn@python.org https://mail.python.or

I am sure there are many people disappointed by the idea that we may not run with GSoC this year. On the one hand, we could – as Gaël has suggested – really benefit from having more people involved in the maintenance of scikit-learn, and GSoC provides a potential pathway for newcomers. On the other

I think we have de facto decided not to participate by not having someone step up by now and organize it like Raghav did last year. On Sat, Feb 18, 2017 at 10:54 AM, Olivier Grisel wrote: > Personally I don't feel like mentoring this year. I would really like > to focus my scikit-learn time on f

Personally I don't feel like mentoring this year. I would really like to focus my scikit-learn time on finishing the joblib process refactoring with Thomas Moreau and the binning / thread-based parallelization of boosted trees with Guillaume and Raghav. -- Olivier

So have we made a decision not to participate? I'm totally fine with that, but we should make it a conscious decision and not just wait until the deadline approaches and then hack something together last minute. On 01/31/2017 12:55 PM, Guillaume Lemaître wrote: I would be interested in helping

I discussed this briefly with Gael and Joel. The consensus was that unless we already know excellent students who will fit well that it is unlikely we will participate in GSoC. That being said, if someone (other than me) is willing to step up and organize it, I'd volunteer to be a mentor again. I t

2017-01-30 Thread Andreas Mueller
Hey all. It's that time of the year again. Are we planning on participating in GSOC? If so, we need mentors and projects. It's unlikely that I'll have time to help with either in any substantial way. If we want to participate, I think we should try to be a bit more organized than last year ;) Andy
