Aneesh, I haven't had a chance to look at your patches. What I had actually had in mind was having separate Git directories for the GTK3 versions of the code. We aren't using GTK3 in the field so much yet, so I wanted readers of the book to have complete samples of both versions of the Activitie

Walter, OK. The GCI tasks are supposed to be two hours work for an experienced developer and quantity of tasks completed counts (two things I only learned today. I should have read the mentoring instructions more carefully). Splitting up the tasks for GTK3 might improve the situation for Aneesh.

He gets create for the ports themselves, so I think this is a non-issue for him. I think he dropped out because he can only have one task open at a time and plans to reclaim once he has some examples in hand. -walter On Fri, Dec 7, 2012 at 3:09 PM, James Simmons wrote: > I just got a posting fro

I just got a posting from Aneesh. He has given up on the GTK3 porting, but he did post patches for two examples. I think the problem is that there are too many samples to port to make a good GCC task. I didn't realize that they get credit based on number of tasks completed when I wrote mine up.

Chris, It looks like I have Ksitij Kumar doing the WebKit task and Aneesh Dogra doing the GTK3 port. Aneesh has made a clone of my reposotory for code examples here: http://git.sugarlabs.org/myo-sugar-activities-examples Ksitij has given me a PDF of a new chapter for the book, which actually lo

Chris, OK. We can get rid of this task if it isn't eligible. We'll figure out some way of getting any new stuff translated after GCI is over. James Simmons On Fri, Dec 7, 2012 at 11:06 AM, Chris Leonard wrote: > On Fri, Dec 7, 2012 at 10:50 AM, James Simmons wrote: > > Walter, > > > > This

We prob. should not have published this task until after we had the new content. You could comment that the task is not ready and ask that the person who claimed it to unclaim it for the time being. FYI, we can always, unilaterally, add more time to a task. -walter On Fri, Dec 7, 2012 at 10:50 AM

Walter, This morning somebody volunteered to do Spanish translation for Google code-in. The problem is that we already have a Spanish translation of the manual, and only need translation for new content. We might get some new content, as we have volunteers for GTK3 and WebKit, but I would guess
