| mahatic | firstly Congratulations on the acceptance! | 16:32 |
| psargent | Thank you !! | 16:32 |
| enthurohini | thankyou | 16:32 |
| Eva-i | Hey | 16:32 |
| *** kzaitsev_mb has joined #openstack-opw | 16:32 | |
| sonali5 | thanks | 16:32 |
| kzaitsev_mb | o/ | 16:32 |
| vkmc | congrats all :) | 16:32 |
| Akanksha08 | Hi | 16:32 |
| sonali5 | thanks vkmc :) | 16:32 |
| Akanksha08 | Thanks! | 16:32 |
| enthurohini | thanks vkmc | 16:32 |
| mahatic | I hope by now you are comfortable with IRC.mailing lists and the environment | 16:33 |
| Akanksha08 | yes :) | 16:33 |
| enthurohini | yes | 16:33 |
| sonali5 | yes | 16:33 |
| psargent | yes | 16:33 |
| mahatic | if you haven't already, do subscribe to the openstack-dev mailing list | 16:33 |
| mahatic | you can have a filter to your own specific project | 16:33 |
| mahatic | Also, don't forget to hangout on #outreachy on gimpnet | 16:34 |
| Eva-i | Okay, I still haven't subscribed to mailing list, but I'll do. Personally I don't like them. =) | 16:34 |
| sonali5 | mahatic how can we filter for our project | 16:34 |
| Eva-i | mailing lists | 16:34 |
| psargent | i haven't subscribed to the mailing yet but I will | 16:35 |
| *** neiljerram_bb has joined #openstack-opw | 16:35 | |
| enthurohini | I will too | 16:35 |
| mahatic | Eva-i: :) but there maybe updates, discussions that could be helpful | 16:35 |
| njirap | am here too.. | 16:35 |
| vkmc | #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists | 16:35 |
| * amrith wonders who the seven accepted OPW people are, and what projects they'll be working on. | 16:35 | |
| amrith | regardless, congratulations to all of you. | 16:36 |
| amrith | I know sonali5, don't know the rest, I don't think. | 16:36 |
| sonali5 | thanks amrith :) | 16:36 |
| vkmc | all the OpenStack mailing lists are there, but perhaps the most importants for you now are openstack (low-traffic), openstack-dev (high-traffic) and openstack-internships | 16:36 |
| mahatic | sonali5: depends on your mail client :) but in general, project specific mails have [<project-name>] - for instance for swift it is [swift]; neutron [neutron] is appended | 16:36 |
| mahatic | the one | 16:36 |
| mahatic | (sorry that was typo) | 16:37 |
| vkmc | #link https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/2015/DecemberMarch#OpenStack | 16:37 |
| mahatic | the ones with [all] is addressed for everyone and not project specific | 16:37 |
| *** neil_bb has joined #openstack-opw | 16:37 | |
| vkmc | amrith, accepted participants and projects ^ | 16:37 |
| amrith | vkmc, thx | 16:37 |
| vkmc | amrith, np :) just saw that your mentee was assigned to me, I'll ask the coordinators to correct that | 16:38 |
| amrith | vkmc, I was going to ask why I got invited here ;) | 16:38 |
| amrith | but you answered the question. | 16:38 |
| vkmc | amrith, +1 | 16:39 |
| mahatic | As part of the internship - interns are expected to blog every two weeks | 16:39 |
| mahatic | blogging more often is more than welcome :) | 16:39 |
| *** neiljerram_bb has quit IRC | 16:39 | |
| enthurohini | ok :) | 16:39 |
| psargent | ok :-) | 16:40 |
| sonali5 | ok :) | 16:40 |
| amrith | mahatic, where do you expect them to blog; if sonali5 wants to blog on my company's blog, I can arrange that. | 16:40 |
| amrith | just need to know. | 16:40 |
| mahatic | amrith: can use any blogging platform | 16:40 |
| mahatic | wordpress, dreamwidth, blogspot | 16:41 |
| vkmc | tumblr, wordpress, github blogs are some of the alternatives | 16:41 |
| njirap | ok.. | 16:41 |
| vkmc | ^ yeah | 16:41 |
| vkmc | :) | 16:41 |
| amrith | so you mean personal blogs. | 16:41 |
| amrith | ok | 16:41 |
| vkmc | amrith, that would awesome! if you see that some of your mentee's blog posts are useful for Tesora's blog, feel free to add those | 16:41 |
| vkmc | it's all about sharing after all | 16:42 |
| enthurohini | amrith, here is https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/2015/DecemberMarch/InfoForOutreachPlanet list of blogs | 16:42 |
| amrith | happy to, sonali5 let's put that on the list of things ... | 16:42 |
| Eva-i | Should we try to make our blog posts helpful for future openstack developers? | 16:42 |
| mahatic | since almost all of the interns work remote, it is a great way to keep track of progress. We expect to learn what you're working on, your insights into the program in general and more | 16:42 |
| sonali5 | sure amrith | 16:42 |
| mahatic | enthurohini: thank you for that link! | 16:43 |
| Akanksha08 | vkmc, I am still unsure about my project. Any update on that? | 16:43 |
| vkmc | Eva-i, yes please | 16:43 |
| enthurohini | np :) | 16:43 |
| mahatic | please follow the instructions on your agreement email (or I could forward the steps later) that will help your blog linked to OutreachPlanet | 16:43 |
| vkmc | Akanksha08, we will address that after the meeting, we need to set a meeting with your mentor | 16:44 |
| Akanksha08 | okay | 16:44 |
| elmiko | o/ | 16:45 |
| Eva-i | If I'll just describe everything I do in my project, I guess it will not be very useful for other people. | 16:45 |
| Akanksha08 | mahatic, already followed but yet to publish a post :( | 16:45 |
| mahatic | setting up znc would be great, but if not - check openstack logs to get an update on things ( or discussions that happened when you were away) | 16:46 |
| vkmc | #link http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/irclogs/ | 16:46 |
| vkmc | logs for all logged openstack-* channels | 16:46 |
| mahatic | Eva-i: you could describe what's going on. Additionally you could blog more often to include tips or other info you think will be useful for other devs | 16:46 |
| neiljerram | znc? Don't think I know that. | 16:47 |
| mahatic | neiljerram: IRC bouncer | 16:47 |
| mahatic | oh of course any other choice of bouncer you see fit :) | 16:47 |
| mahatic | http://wiki.znc.in/Installation | 16:47 |
| neiljerram | Ah, perhaps that's what I need to solve the problem of multiple nicks. | 16:48 |
| Eva-i | I think to use vnc it's preferrable to have a machine that is always on. | 16:48 |
| mahatic | Moving on; Topic - Expectations for mentors | 16:49 |
| Eva-i | In a cloud, for example | 16:49 |
| mahatic | Firstly, Thank for choosing to participate! | 16:49 |
| mahatic | I hope by now you must be a little familiar with the assigned interns | 16:50 |
| neil_bb | A little, yes | 16:50 |
| amrith | ditto, a little. | 16:50 |
| mahatic | if there isn't a timeline yet for your project, we strongly suggest you to have a discussion with the intern and chalk out a timeline - it will help interns to get an idea on the areas of work inside the project | 16:51 |
| mahatic | and so they could focus on them | 16:51 |
| mahatic | okay :) | 16:51 |
| amrith | I have a question about the project and timelines. | 16:51 |
| neil_bb | Especially with holidays approaching fast | 16:51 |
| mahatic | amrith: shoot | 16:52 |
| mahatic | neil_bb: yeah! | 16:52 |
| amrith | if the needs of a project have changed since the proposal and it is unlikely that the project will accept the work in the originally contemplated area, what do we do? | 16:52 |
| amrith | Is a change of project allowed? | 16:52 |
| mahatic | neil_bb: oh your multiple nicks - I think you could set that in your irc client (preferred alternatives) | 16:52 |
| amrith | also, given the mitaka timeline, it may be too late for the interns to submit bp's in time to get included soon. | 16:52 |
| amrith | vkmc knows this is the case, at least in Trove. | 16:53 |
| mahatic | amrith: sure, it is | 16:53 |
| neil_bb | Thx | 16:53 |
| amrith | I don't think it is reasonable to expect a completed bp in the next 4 days, which is the m-1 cutoff. | 16:53 |
| vkmc | I do yeah, we don't have much time left and writing an spec can take some time | 16:53 |
| amrith | so, given that the intern has likely not started on this yet, what is the recommendation? | 16:53 |
| amrith | sonali5, ^^ | 16:53 |
| mahatic | amrith: Make sure to have a timeline and also the scope of the project; as in something that is agreed upon within the community | 16:53 |
| neil_bb | Is success defined only as 'code merged'? I hope not. | 16:54 |
| sonali5 | yes amrith following on that | 16:54 |
| neil_bb | (sorry I should know already) | 16:54 |
| vkmc | neil_bb, not at all, I'd say it's defined as how much the intern learned and if they can continue working with the community after the internship | 16:54 |
| amrith | neil_bb, good q. I don't know so I would like an answer. | 16:54 |
| mahatic | neil_bb: Ideally we would like code merged. But no, that in itself is not defined as success :) | 16:55 |
| vkmc | sometimes plans doesn't go as expected because of discussions/reviews taking more time than expected | 16:55 |
| neil_bb | Sounds good, thanks | 16:55 |
| mahatic | so long as the mentor and intern feels they have learned things and are able to help the project move forward - that'd be success too | 16:55 |
| mahatic | to help define success is why a timeline is good. So that it could act as measurable progress | 16:56 |
| vkmc | +1 mahatic | 16:56 |
| amrith | What is the overall timeframe for the project/internship? | 16:56 |
| elmiko | yea, this may be an issue for the sahara project as well (re: spec/bps) | 16:56 |
| vkmc | Dec 7th til March 7th | 16:57 |
| neil_bb | Very much agreed. It's really hard to get non-trivial code into Neutron in one cycle | 16:57 |
| mahatic | Dec 7th - Mar7 is the internship duration | 16:57 |
| amrith | thanks vkmc, mahatic | 16:57 |
| vkmc | and then we encourage interns to join the OpenStack Summit | 16:57 |
| njirap | is there an official december holiday break for the openstack community | 16:57 |
| vkmc | for further learning :) | 16:57 |
| amrith | does outreachy internship directly entitle interns to travel assistance to summit vkmc? | 16:57 |
| *** kzaitsev_mb has quit IRC | 16:58 | |
| amrith | travel (such as from India) including lodging can be pricey. | 16:58 |
| vkmc | amrith, they have to go through the travel support selection process as every other contributor, but they status is taken into account when the selection is made | 16:58 |
| mahatic | neil_bb: if you encounter review process delay or any other process related hindrance, you could advise the intern to pick a small bug in the meantime | 16:58 |
| amrith | vkmc, thx | 16:58 |
| neil_bb | Yes, sure | 16:58 |
| mahatic | njirap: no official break. You can coordinate with you rmentor on the holidays and work around | 16:59 |
| njirap | ok mahatic.. | 16:59 |
| mahatic | Topic: Open Discussion | 17:00 |
| mahatic | Anything else? | 17:00 |
| mahatic | Please feel free to ping me or vkmc on irc for further questions/concerns | 17:00 |
| amrith | is there a periodic checkpoint with the group? | 17:00 |
| mahatic | oh yes | 17:00 |
| neil_bb | Are we all done now on any formalities that are needed? | 17:00 |
| amrith | to make sure that we (the mentors) are doing their bit. | 17:00 |
| mahatic | good question | 17:00 |
| neil_bb | Paperwork etc. | 17:00 |
| sonali5 | what needs to be done regarding the travel allowance money | 17:00 |
| vkmc | yup! | 17:00 |
| vkmc | sonali5, when the time comes we will issue some directions | 17:01 |
| njirap | i have an issue with launchpad today | 17:01 |
| mahatic | so there is a midway evaluation - i.e. the payments are based on the interns being in good standing with their mentors | 17:01 |
| vkmc | right now the travel support application period haven't started | 17:01 |
| sonali5 | ok vkmc thanks :) | 17:01 |
| katyafervent | mahatic, is this channel is the main one for communication regarding outreachy? | 17:02 |
| vkmc | katyafervent, it is for OpenStack | 17:02 |
| katyafervent | vkmc, ok, thanks :) | 17:02 |
| mahatic | apart from that - the mentor/intern can reach out to the admins should there be any concern that you feel cannot be resolved between the mentor and intern | 17:02 |
| mahatic | katyafervent: join #outreachy on gimpnet as well | 17:02 |
| Eva-i | By travel support do you mean Outreachy one or OpenStack one? | 17:02 |
| Eva-i | Or both? | 17:03 |
| vkmc | Eva-i, OpenStack one, Outreachy has a different process | 17:03 |
| mahatic | and outreachy-interns-december2015@gnome.org for further communications | 17:03 |
| sonali5 | outreachy one | 17:03 |
| vkmc | Eva-i, it's a fixed amount and you can use it for any conference you think will be helpful for your internship | 17:03 |
| vkmc | sonali5, ^ | 17:03 |
| vkmc | #link https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/TravelAllowance | 17:04 |
| vkmc | more information here ^ | 17:04 |
| vkmc | ping me if you have any doubt | 17:04 |
| sonali5 | thanks vkmc :) | 17:04 |
| vkmc | np | 17:04 |
| mahatic | I think that's all we have - unless there are more questions | 17:04 |
| vkmc | I have just a recommendation for mentors and mentees | 17:04 |
| mahatic | sure | 17:05 |
| amrith | vkmc, someone should get OpenStack Summit added to https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/TravelAllowance | 17:05 |
| vkmc | try to establish a weekly one on one to chat about any update, question or concern | 17:05 |
| vkmc | amrith, good point, thanks | 17:05 |
| vkmc | the amount of communication that goes between mentor and mentee is free for you to decide | 17:06 |
| neil_bb | Thanks, good idea | 17:06 |
| mahatic | yeah - meetings with interns, whichever way suits you best - IRC, skype, phone etc | 17:06 |
| vkmc | this internship does not expect mentees to require much hand holding: we want our interns to be proactive and independent because that's the way everybody usually work on open source communities | 17:07 |
| vkmc | but having a meeting with mentors is always a good idea to unstuck if you feel blocked and to get pointers on where to continue | 17:07 |
| Eva-i | I have a meeting with vkmc 2 times a week, for example. | 17:07 |
| Eva-i | *meetings | 17:07 |
| *** kzaitsev_mb has joined #openstack-opw | 17:07 | |
| vkmc | yup, our meetings last between 30min to 1 hour and we talk about everything we think that need to be discussed: blockers, Eva-i's progress, next steps | 17:08 |
| mahatic | great | 17:08 |
| psargent | thanks, good idea! | 17:08 |
| kzaitsev_mb | hey katyafervent and I had something to share | 17:08 |
| vkmc | kzaitsev_mb, sure, floor is yours | 17:09 |
| kzaitsev_mb | most likely we're going to be mentoring enthurohini together more or less, since katyafervent is going on maternity leave before newy year =) | 17:09 |
| kzaitsev_mb | so she'll have some time before NY, but most likely won't have enought time after NY =) | 17:10 |
| mahatic | kzaitsev_mb: would you be available throughout the internship period? | 17:10 |
| kzaitsev_mb | sure, I will | 17:10 |
| vkmc | kzaitsev_mb, katyafervent, that's great news :D feel free to share your mentorship experience | 17:10 |
| katyafervent | vkmc, should we change mentor in outreachy.gnome.org ? | 17:11 |
| vkmc | for all the mentees, you are encouraged to get support from the community working on your selected project as well, not only your mentors | 17:11 |
| mahatic | kzaitsev_mb: then you could be the primary mentor/point of contact and katyafervent could guide as well whenever she(/he) is available | 17:11 |
| kzaitsev_mb | the question we have is more on the procedural side of the things — should katyafervent or I write some letter or click some buttons on the outreachy site? =) | 17:12 |
| vkmc | katyafervent, I'll ask Outreachy coordinators to put both of your names, if that is ok for you | 17:13 |
| katyafervent | cool, thanks :) | 17:14 |
| vkmc | kzaitsev_mb, good question | 17:14 |
| kzaitsev_mb | ok, for me =) Kate also says she's ok with that ) | 17:14 |
| vkmc | kzaitsev_mb, as mahatic mentioned, maybe you could be the primary point of contact | 17:14 |
| amrith | I think it would be very good (more like mandatory) that all participants actively join the respective project's channel on IRC and participate in the converstaions there, the meeting, etc.. Timing is likey a challenge though given that most meetings seem to have US friendly times ;( | 17:15 |
| enthurohini | kzaitsev_mb, katyafervent, thanks a lot for your activeness as a mentor. Feeling happy to have you guyz. Congrats katyafervent | 17:16 |
| mahatic | amrith: yup. That's the way we expect the internship to go. Interns getting involved with the community and the open source development | 17:16 |
| amrith | for example, Trove, 1800 UTC is 2330 in India ;) | 17:16 |
| vkmc | amrith, +1 | 17:16 |
| amrith | but, sleep as I'm often reminded is highly overrated. | 17:16 |
| neil_bb | I'm going to lose connectivity now, but will check logs later for any more info | 17:16 |
| psargent | neil_bb: I'll ping you tommorrow | 17:17 |
| neil_bb | psargent: i'll email re when we can touch base | 17:17 |
| sonali5 | ok amrith thanks for the information i guess that is much needed :) | 17:17 |
| psargent | neill_bb sounds good | 17:17 |
| neil_bb | psargent : or IRC ping is good too! | 17:17 |
| vkmc | have to head out for now, thanks all o/ and feel free to reach me in any time | 17:18 |
| mahatic | okay, that's all I think | 17:18 |
| enthurohini | vkmc, mahatic. thanks | 17:19 |
| elmiko | vkmc: are we gonna talk sometime? | 17:19 |
| amrith | thanks! | 17:19 |
| mahatic | thanks for attending everyone! and We hope you have a great experience with the internship programme! | 17:19 |
| psargent | thank you vkmc, mahatic! | 17:19 |
| Eva-i | I wanted to shift my sleeping regime to a normal one, but since my current sleeping regime seems to fit with openstack development, I decided to keep it. =) | 17:19 |
| enthurohini | thanks everyone | 17:19 |
| sonali5 | thank you mahatic , vkmc | 17:19 |
| mahatic | *program | 17:19 |
| Eva-i | thanks | 17:19 |
| psargent | thanks everyone! | 17:19 |
| *** jengeb has joined #openstack-opw | 17:20 | |
| Akanksha08 | Thanks everyone! | 17:20 |
| vkmc | elmiko, yeah, Akanksha08 will reach you to start talking about the project | 17:21 |
| vkmc | then I'd like to have a chat with both of you if you have any doubt on how to continue | 17:21 |
| elmiko | vkmc: ok, i think we'll need to as the previous project plan might not work out now | 17:21 |

| vkmc | hey hey | 21:00 |
| notmyname | hello | 21:00 |
| vkmc | who is here for the (second) kickoff meeting for Outreachy? | 21:00 |
| Zyric | Me. Hello everyone :) | 21:01 |
| * notmyname . | 21:01 | |
| vkmc | cool cool | 21:01 |
| vkmc | we are not going to be many people for this shift | 21:01 |
| notmyname | "everyone" seems to be just us on this one swift project ;-) | 21:01 |
| vkmc | haha yes yes | 21:02 |
| vkmc | so it's going to be a really short meeting probably | 21:02 |
| notmyname | yay. my favorite kind ;-) | 21:02 |
| Zyric | Ah I was looking forward to connecting with a few of the others. Will have to get in touch another way then. | 21:02 |
| Zyric | All good | 21:02 |
| vkmc | yeah, we will need to find a way to get everybody together | 21:03 |
| vkmc | this round we got several different timezones | 21:03 |
| vkmc | ok, so | 21:03 |
| vkmc | #topic General information for mentees | 21:03 |
| vkmc | Zyric, you are the only one attending this meeting that qualifies as mentee | 21:03 |
| Zyric | Righto | 21:04 |
| vkmc | so... there are a few things you might want to check out | 21:04 |
| vkmc | 1. we expect interns to blog about their progress more or less one time every 2 weeks | 21:04 |
| vkmc | any blogging platform you prefer is good for that... say, wordpress, tumblr, blogspot | 21:04 |
| vkmc | if you want, I can give you a few examples for inspiration :) | 21:05 |
| notmyname | she's already got it all set up :-) | 21:05 |
| Zyric | Sweet. Yeah I got a bit carried away and have my own domain using Ghost now | 21:05 |
| vkmc | awesome! | 21:05 |
| vkmc | that's great to hear | 21:05 |
| vkmc | 2. you might want to subscribe to the community mailing lists | 21:06 |
| vkmc | you probably know by now that we use IRC as the main communication medium, but the mailing list is also very important | 21:06 |
| Zyric | Nice. That's something I don't have set up yet. | 21:06 |
| vkmc | https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists | 21:06 |
| Zyric | Thank you | 21:06 |
| vkmc | there you have the listing of the community mailing lists | 21:07 |
| notmyname | it's exceptionally high volume | 21:07 |
| notmyname | up to a couple hundred per day | 21:07 |
| vkmc | perhaps right now you would only need... openstack (low-traffic), openstack-dev (high-traffic) and openstack-internships | 21:07 |
| vkmc | yeah, that's openstack-dev | 21:07 |
| notmyname | oh, there's an -internships one? | 21:07 |
| notmyname | I don't think i'm on that one | 21:07 |
| vkmc | yes there is one :) | 21:08 |
| vkmc | super low traffic though | 21:08 |
| vkmc | http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-internships | 21:08 |
| vkmc | is not in that wiki though | 21:08 |
| notmyname | oh maybe I am. the link is purple | 21:08 |
| vkmc | mental note... add it to the wiki | 21:08 |
| vkmc | cool! | 21:09 |
| vkmc | oh... and maybe the first thing I should said | 21:09 |
| *** kzaitsev_mb has quit IRC | 21:09 | |
| vkmc | 3. congratulations for being selected for this round of Outreachy internships and welcome :D | 21:10 |
| vkmc | let's move on now to mentors | 21:10 |
| vkmc | #topic General information from mentors | 21:10 |
| vkmc | notmyname is the only one present... you probably know most of this things but anyways | 21:11 |
| vkmc | 1. thanks a lot for joining this round as a mentor | 21:11 |
| vkmc | without mentors this internship is not possible :D | 21:11 |
| notmyname | happy to help. I just think it's really cool people want to get involved ;-) | 21:12 |
| vkmc | :) | 21:12 |
| vkmc | 2. make sure to establish a defined timeline for the project so you can keep track of things | 21:12 |
| vkmc | more in your case that you are so far away... time-zone wise | 21:12 |
| vkmc | we don't consider "merged-code" as "success", but is still important that you can accomplish your goals | 21:13 |
| notmyname | actually, it's a lot easier this time | 21:13 |
| vkmc | really? that's great to hear | 21:13 |
| notmyname | we're only 3 hours different | 21:13 |
| notmyname | just different days ;-) | 21:13 |
| Zyric | :) | 21:13 |
| notmyname | much easier than SF and Bangalore | 21:13 |
| vkmc | cool! | 21:13 |
| Zyric | I have a priliminary project proposal but I'd like to confirm dates and goals with notmyname and we can organise that this week/today hopefully | 21:14 |
| notmyname | Zyric has already taken the initiative and sent me an email with a bunch of logistics stuff covered | 21:14 |
| notmyname | yeah. replying is what I'm doing right after this meeting | 21:14 |
| vkmc | well done Zyric | 21:14 |
| Zyric | Nice, thank you | 21:14 |
| vkmc | notmyname seems you have all covered then :) | 21:14 |
| Zyric | Awesome. I'm delighted to have been accepted and have this opportunity, huge thank you to notmyname for choosing to help me through my internship. | 21:14 |
| notmyname | Zyric: first step, until others tuff gets hashed out, get patch 241978 squared away :-) | 21:15 |
| *** patchbot has joined #openstack-opw | 21:15 | |
| notmyname | patch 241978 | 21:15 |
| patchbot | notmyname: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/241978/ - Add support for storage policies to have more than... | 21:15 |
| Zyric | Will do | 21:15 |
| notmyname | thanks patchbot | 21:15 |
| vkmc | so the next steps is working on that timeline... and Zyric to start working on getting involved with Swift community (notmyname will be able to help on that), Zyric to get her hands on bugs fixing and reviews, and research to start working on the project | 21:15 |
| notmyname | yup | 21:15 |
| vkmc | awesome | 21:15 |
| vkmc | Zyric, feel free to do your own research and pick your own tasks as you see fit | 21:16 |
| notmyname | vkmc: aside, if you don't like patchbot or find it annoying, I can make it leave | 21:16 |
| vkmc | haha no it's ok, it's very useful to have it here | 21:16 |
| notmyname | ok | 21:16 |
| vkmc | and the last point | 21:17 |
| *** neil_bb has joined #openstack-opw | 21:17 | |
| *** neiljerram_bb has joined #openstack-opw | 21:17 | |
| vkmc | 3. try to establish a weekly one on one meeting to talk about any blocker that could arise, to catch up on progress and to talk about any other thing | 21:18 |
| vkmc | this is not mandatory | 21:18 |
| notmyname | definitely a good thing | 21:18 |
| vkmc | mentors and mentees are free to choose how they manage their communication | 21:18 |
| vkmc | but I found myself that having a quick one on one is very useful | 21:18 |
| Zyric | Yeah me too, think that's on the list of things to organise :) | 21:19 |
| vkmc | cool :) | 21:19 |
| vkmc | and I think that's pretty much it | 21:19 |
| vkmc | #topic Open discussion | 21:19 |
| Zyric | Thanks vkmc! Hope we get more opportunities to connect with the other interns | 21:19 |
| notmyname | vkmc: are we squared away on logistics? do you have all the paperwork/forms you need from us? | 21:19 |
| vkmc | Zyric, I hope that too! | 21:19 |
| notmyname | vkmc: Zyric: are either of you going to LCA? | 21:19 |
| Zyric | What is LCA? | 21:20 |
| notmyname | Zyric: you're moving, I think, during then. so I'm guessing no | 21:20 |
| notmyname | linux conf australia | 21:20 |
| notmyname | very very good tech conference | 21:20 |
| vkmc | notmyname, it's all done for now! in the midterm we will get in touch with you to ask you how is the internship going, but that is going to happen four weeks from now, more or less | 21:20 |
| notmyname | http://lca2016.linux.org.au | 21:20 |
| Zyric | Ah, cool | 21:20 |
| vkmc | +1 nice, that sounds like fun | 21:20 |
| vkmc | I'm not going though, I'm quite far away :( | 21:21 |
| notmyname | me too, but I'm goign ;-) | 21:21 |
| Zyric | As notmyname said, I'll be moving then so unable to attend sadly. | 21:21 |
| notmyname | there were several outreachy people there last year | 21:21 |
| notmyname | Zyric: ah, too bad. it's one that would defintiely be worth the travel money | 21:21 |
| notmyname | but there are several other possibilities, too, of course | 21:22 |
| vkmc | talking about conferences | 21:22 |
| Zyric | Sure, will keep an eye out! Keen to attend an open source conference of some kind | 21:22 |
| vkmc | Zyric, we will let you know, but there is a travel support program that you would be encouraged to apply to attend the OpenStack Summit | 21:22 |
| vkmc | next one is in Austin | 21:22 |
| vkmc | :) | 21:23 |
| vkmc | it's not yet open, but we will let you know when it is through the mailing list (-internships) or in this channel | 21:23 |
| Zyric | Awesome! Very keen indeed, will sort out mailing list stuff after this then | 21:23 |
| vkmc | coolio | 21:23 |
| notmyname | to be explicit, the summit travel support program is completely separate form the outreachy allowance | 21:24 |
| vkmc | good point, it is | 21:24 |
| vkmc | here is more information about the Outreachy allowance https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/TravelAllowance | 21:24 |
| notmyname | and while participation in outreachy is definitely a factor when the travel support grants are considered, being in outreachy isn't a guarantee of travel support. | 21:24 |
| notmyname | but AFAIK all the outreachy participants who applied got it ;-) | 21:25 |
| Zyric | Right, will keep that in mind. Thanks. | 21:25 |
| vkmc | yeah :) | 21:25 |
| vkmc | well, I think that's all... | 21:26 |
| vkmc | please, let me know if you have any doubt | 21:26 |
| vkmc | reach me at any time | 21:26 |
| vkmc | I'm online most of the time... and if I'm not, I'll be back shortly probably :D | 21:26 |
| Zyric | Cool, thanks for all the information vkmc :) | 21:26 |
| vkmc | cool | 21:27 |
| notmyname | Zyric: did you get IRC connectivity figured out? are you using a bouncer yet? | 21:27 |
| Zyric | No, I've been doing things outside the past week since we're having a lovely NZ summer! I'll do that today | 21:27 |
| notmyname | ok | 21:27 |
| vkmc | ok, so :) let's call this a meeting | 21:28 |
| vkmc | thanks a lot for joining | 21:28 |
| vkmc | I'll forward the logs (and the logs from the other meeting) to all the mentors/mentees | 21:28 |
| vkmc | Zyric, oh, and if you want to know who else is participating and where are they based so you sync up to meet them, here you can find some information https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/2015/DecemberMarch#OpenStack | 21:30 |
| Zyric | Neat, thank you | 21:31 |
| vkmc | sweet! | 21:36 |
| vkmc | ok, talk to you all o/ | 21:36 |
| vkmc | thanks again for joining | 21:37 |
| vkmc | meeting over :D | 21:37 |
| notmyname | Zyric: since we're both up right now and thinking about stuff, how about a skype/g+/facetime/whatever chat? | 21:38 |
| notmyname | where "stuff" == outreachy | 21:39 |
| Zyric | Sounds good, I have skype and Google hangouts installed and either works for me. | 21:39 |
