2009-03-19T00:01:23  <ThomasWaldmann> ah, found it. they want some more data.
2009-03-19T00:01:32  <dreimark> as usual
2009-03-19T00:03:19  <ThomasWaldmann> slots desired: 4?
2009-03-19T00:03:32  <dreimark> yes
2009-03-19T00:03:36  <ThomasWaldmann> (I hope we can edit that later)
2009-03-19T00:17:57  <dreimark> now I can become principle a mentor but by submitting the form I get "you have no Roles"
2009-03-19T00:18:20  <dreimark> and the second time I tried it tells You can not request to become a Mentor.
2009-03-19T00:18:22  <dreimark> Please make sure there is no outstanding invite or request and be sure that you are not a Mentor already.
2009-03-19T00:24:49  <ThomasWaldmann> look now
2009-03-19T00:25:18  *** jzeiger has joined #moin-dev
2009-03-19T00:26:42  <dreimark> .oO lots of lines to enter
2009-03-19T00:29:19  <dreimark> don't use other than ascii 127 to fill out the form
2009-03-19T00:33:51  <ThomasWaldmann> high quality american software :D

2009-03-19T09:37:56  <dennda> meh
2009-03-19T09:37:57  <dennda> guys
2009-03-19T09:38:28  <dennda> Alternative Backend part 2 \n The goal of this project is to fix the design issues that had appear after creating the alternative backed in gsoc2008...
2009-03-19T09:39:37  <dennda> That almost sounded as if one of you suggested that (talking about some specific design issues nobody talked to me about), and then below there's your comments clarifying. maybe we should add -- MyName after comments on that page? :-)
2009-03-19T09:40:43  <ThomasWaldmann> dennda: that rather sounds like copied from a 2008 topic
2009-03-19T09:41:26  <dennda> Yeah
2009-03-19T09:41:36  <dennda> Which is why I was a bit confused at first
2009-03-19T09:41:45  * ThomasWaldmann too
2009-03-19T09:43:38  <TheSheep> :)
2009-03-19T09:47:26  <TheSheep> ThomasWaldmann: that was hardcore
2009-03-19T09:48:57  <ThomasWaldmann> hehe, yeah. (@00:43)
2009-03-19T10:07:54  <dennda> that can't be real
2009-03-19T10:10:11  <TheSheep> it must be real
2009-03-19T10:10:59  <dennda> it's just way to epic to be real
2009-03-19T10:11:34  <ThomasWaldmann> esp. at the time where the sheep in space explode :D
2009-03-19T10:11:45  <TheSheep> bovine powaaah!
2009-03-19T10:12:54  <TheSheep> no, wait, ovine powaah
2009-03-19T10:31:51  <dennda> ThomasWaldmann: Still looking for mentors?
2009-03-19T10:38:13  <ThomasWaldmann> yes
2009-03-19T10:38:40  <ThomasWaldmann> i guess we need 2 or 3 more
2009-03-19T10:41:18  <ThomasWaldmann> (will depend a bit on the students also, but the problem is we have to specify how many projects we want - and creating a ratio >> 1.0 of students/mentor can have misc. effects)
2009-03-19T10:42:45  <dennda> ThomasWaldmann: I know someone who'd love to mentor. I've worked with him a bit in the past and he's a great guy. Familiar with python and has done GSoC mentoring already
2009-03-19T10:43:00  <ThomasWaldmann> cool
2009-03-19T10:43:28  <ThomasWaldmann> (of course he should have a look at moin also, but there is still enough time left)
2009-03-19T10:43:51  <dennda> yeah
2009-03-19T10:43:57  <dennda> should I invite him to this channel?
2009-03-19T10:44:07  <ThomasWaldmann> yes, please

2009-03-19T21:33:55  <dennda> no idea

2009-03-19T21:36:27  <ThomasWaldmann> the problem is that i only see that nickname(?) in the app. no email, no name, no nothing.
2009-03-19T21:36:52  <cbx33> I've filled in everything
2009-03-19T21:37:05  <cbx33> and I guess I'm now a mentor

2009-03-19T21:39:17  <cbx33> I love helping people to grow in their development
2009-03-19T21:39:35  <cbx33> and I esp love that moment when someone gets something....and gets really really excited about it
2009-03-19T21:39:45  <dennda> hehe
2009-03-19T21:40:31  <cbx33> and I just love ... the spirit of it
2009-03-19T21:40:47  <cbx33> sorry...sounds sappy I guess ;)
2009-03-19T21:42:35  <ThomasWaldmann> cbx33: look at our GoogleSoc2009 page
2009-03-19T21:42:39  <dreimark> costa is a central figure in Sergej Lukianenko Tetralogie

2009-03-19T21:43:37  <cbx33> at least in the English translation ;)
2009-03-19T21:43:44  <cbx33> you read them dreimark ?
2009-03-19T21:43:51  * cbx33 is currently reading the last one
2009-03-19T21:43:51  <dreimark> yeah I think you are right
2009-03-19T21:44:00  <dennda> cbx33: nah, i can see what you mean :-)
2009-03-19T21:44:16  * dreimark had read all of them
2009-03-19T21:44:22  <cbx33> is the last one good?
2009-03-19T21:44:41  <cbx33> dreimark: seen the films I take it?
2009-03-19T21:45:28  <dreimark> there was one movie only and that was mixed somehow. It was on tv
2009-03-19T21:45:34  <dreimark> some months ago.
2009-03-19T21:45:36  <cbx33> there are two
2009-03-19T21:45:45  <cbx33> Night Watch and Day Watch
2009-03-19T21:45:50  <cbx33> I have them both on DVD
2009-03-19T21:46:03  <dreimark> cool, I have missed one.
2009-03-19T21:46:31  <cbx33> indeed you have
2009-03-19T21:46:32  <dreimark> the idea of thestory is quite interesting and unfortunately the fourth was the last one
2009-03-19T21:46:56  <cbx33> I've had to wait ages for the last one
2009-03-19T21:47:04  <cbx33> dreimark: what language did yo uread it in?
2009-03-19T21:47:11  <dreimark> in german.
2009-03-19T21:47:25  <cbx33> ahh
2009-03-19T21:48:03  <cbx33> the last one only came out in the UK at around christmas time
2009-03-19T21:49:15  <dreimark> I do prefer to read in engl. too but I got all the books borrowed. And it is important that a computer expert has a leading part. That is quite rarly.
