reosarevok, CallerNo6: have you taken a look at https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/task-inst⦠video yet? I think he's trying to record again today and it'd be nice to have your input on the video too :) Of course you have plenty of time to respond :p
tigranl: all in all, I think you maybe on the right track. Try to put up a jinja page :)

Freso: that's a relief. It's just that I feel a bit too bound by GCI's rules sometimes.
2017-01-02 00230, 2017
Freso
anshuman73: MetaBrainz's projects are FLOSS projects first, and GCI stuff only tangentially. You're only bound by GCI rules in the context of the GCI competition.
2017-01-02 00216, 2017
Freso
We're very happy that you're expanding beyond "just GCI" and becoming more a member of the MeB-as-FLOSS community. :)

anshuman73: and in general, GCI's rules are not so strict as to constrain your progress, but to give everyone an equal chance at a task and eventually the competition. Thanks for being so chill about the issues, that's really appreciated in a student π π

how difficult woudl it be to generate a report of isntruments that do *not* have a commons image attached?
2017-01-02 00257, 2017
gcilou
I gave him a lot of comments, but I'm sure there are things I didn't catch
2017-01-02 00222, 2017
CatQuest
could that sort of thing be gci-ized?
2017-01-02 00224, 2017
Freso
CatQuest: I guess, yes. But it would require a mentor that could help them. yvanz might be able to, maybe.
2017-01-02 00254, 2017
Freso
gcilou: I'll try and look later. I don't think I'll have enough time to give it proper thought before the meeting.
2017-01-02 00227, 2017
gcilou
okay, that's great
2017-01-02 00236, 2017

well I suggested gci for to not make devs more workload, but if it'll do that anyway :o

GCI is one of the best ways I know to get involved in open source projects, because you get to know some of the organizations and through the tasks you learn how to contribute to the project. :)

and sometimes we are lucky and the kids stick around and become fulltime members of our project. like gcilou here :D

CatQuest: Well, making such a report would require some level of SQL knowledge, and certainly more SQL knowledge than I have. But reosarevok or yvanz might be perfectly suited for the task, and it would be a nice research task.

Freso, CatQuest: Good idea actually, I will look further into it later on.

gcilou: yes, I agree. I hadn't seen that unwanted consequence of taking up tasks like that :) Being fair to every participant is most important, especially where many people have GCI as their first intro to Open-Source

Well, I GCI labelled it, so it should be easy to find again anyway. :)
