we're looking for help to analyze some theoretical data-sets, essentially outlining the progress of a given number of ideas over time, by using R in conjunction with mysql databases. let's say there is a game, and the point of the game is to find the most worthwhile solution. let's extend that and say that this solution (or number of solutions) need to be validated by a community. and that community can, and h...

hello! one thing i'd like to see in OpenSSH is (optional) IDEA algorith support. this would be useful especially in an environment which has a mix of old ssh v1.2.x and OpenSSH installations. according to Ascom non commercial use of IDEA is free (http://www.ascom.com/infosec/idea.html). also, there are countries (e.g. Finland) where IDEA is not patented. here&...

To whom it may concern: I am a computer engineering student at Marquette University. I have a lot of ideas for Operating systems and applications, but due to my limited knowledge, they are lying dorment in my head. If there is someone that I can bounce some ideas off so that they can actually accomplish it, this would be great. This may sound weird, someone with good ideas but limited know-how. T...

...and students can apply between March 16th and 27th, but the keen ones have already started to talk to orgs (as you've probably noticed). The full timeline is here: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2015 The main priorities right now are: * Refreshing the list of project ideas. I've already done a fair bit of cleaning up, and I'm in the process of adding some ideas we brainstormed at the mentor summit, but the better the breadth and depth of ideas we have, the more likely we are to be selected: http://trac.xapian.org/wiki/GSoCProjectIdeas Idea...

...morning in California, so Monday will be too late :( ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: 'Stephanie Taylor' via Google Summer of Code Mentors List <google-summer-of-code-mentors-list at googlegroups.com> Date: Sun, Jan 28, 2018 at 11:05 AM Subject: [GSoC Mentors] GSoC Org Ideas List should be solid by this Monday at 19:00 UTC for review To: Google Summer of Code Mentors List <google-summer-of-code-mentors-list at googlegroups.com> Hi all, It seems quite a few veteran orgs have 0, or very few, projects listed on their Ideas List for their GSoC Org apps. Some hav...

Hi, As some of you know, one of the R Projects ideas for GSOC 2009 is to expand the crantastic.org portal. Some ideas for what should be done is mentioned in Hadley Wickham's project description [1], others have been briefly mentioned on this mailing list before. Undoubtedly, however, there are many other good ideas out there that could be imple...

I've been considering the nature of Asterisk, its security, the bug tracker, and more... And i've come up with an interesting idea: A "message of the version". The idea is that Asterisk has a compile time 32-bit unsigned int version which is incremented whenever some major new bug is fixed. When Asterisk starts up (and periodically, maybe once per day), it sends a packet with the version number to a server at Digiu...

...pply between March 10th and 21st, but the keen ones have already started to talk to orgs. The full timeline is here: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2014 I'm happy to submit the org application again. The main priorities right now are: * Refreshing the list of project ideas - this list is one of the key things they look at when reviewing org applications: http://trac.xapian.org/wiki/GSoCProjectIdeas I've done a bit of cleaning up, but mostly just updating it to reflect things that have been implemented now (both in GSoC and outside it). We ne...

Hi, I'm interested to implement the idea of using search indexes build by Lucene. I have some idea of how to do that. I'm currently studying the index format of both. I have written an application of search using Lucene and now I'll do the same using Xapian. then I'll check the details of those index format and then find how t...

...st year, and while we didn't get a place, the feedback was positive and we were encouraged to apply again this year. I'm happy to act as admin (which I've done for SWIG in the past, so I know what's involved) and submit the application. We're putting together a list of project ideas for students on the wiki: http://trac.xapian.org/wiki/GSoCProjectIdeas If you're interested in acting as a mentor for one of the ideas there, or have an idea for a project with a scope suitable for a student to complete in about 12 weeks, please update that page. Ideas without a potential m...

...t adding a fallback in the event that somehow the sshd_config port number is invalid. Example: Port != (1<= or >=65535) By default fall by to port 22, and spit out an error. Same would go for if the new port is already in use, fall back to port 22 and spit out an error. Why is this a good idea? Would be a good idea because people are human and make mistakes, and you shouldn't have to wipe your server just because an invalid port was used by accident. Why is this a bad idea? I see no reason why this would be a bad idea that I am aware of.

Back in 2003/2004 when finding the topic for my masters thesis, I had a secondary project idea, perhaps its about time to do something about the idea, and hear if anyone else thinks its a good idea? The basic idea is to: "Categorize traffic by behavior" The categorization should be based upon things like packet timing characteristics and packet size, rather than standard port...

Hi, I am C Karthik Iyer, a 3rd year B Tech student at NITK Surathkal. I am interested in working on projects on Information Retrieval and Machine Learning. I've had previous experience on working on projects regarding Question Answering Systems. I have a project idea which includes both IR and ML but i dont know how feasible the idea is. Could you guys say when will you be available on IRC so that I can discuss the idea with you.

...r. If you're not familiar with it, see: https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/ We decided to apply a while back, but it's now time for orgs to actually apply - the deadline is just a few days away (Feb 20th). The main priorities right now are: * Refreshing the list of project ideas. I've done some cleaning up, but the better the breadth and depth of ideas we have, the more likely we are to be selected: https://trac.xapian.org/wiki/GSoCProjectIdeas Ideas do *NOT* have to be for work on Xapian itself - projects related to Xapian in other software are wit...

I chatted with Jeremy Morse, Orlando, and Stephen Tozer at the dev meeting, and wanted to summarize the conversation for our benefit, and to share it with others. I aim to be brief, so I apologize if these notes aren't as helpful as they could be to folks who weren't present. Three project ideas, by priority: 1. Address https://llvm.org/pr34136, improving quality of variable location info for variables in memory, by getting the frontend to pre-annotate assignments. 2. Prototype "stop points", or statement markers in the instruction stream. Use Dexter or other tools to measure po...

...or example what a good commit looks like, automated testing, etc. I'd particularly encourage previous GSoC students to consider mentoring - it's a great way to get more involved, and having seen the process from the other side is very helpful. * Refreshing the list of project ideas. James and I have done some cleaning up, but the better the breadth and depth of ideas we have, the more likely we are to be selected: https://trac.xapian.org/wiki/GSoCProjectIdeas Ideas do *NOT* have to be for work on Xapian itself - projects related to Xapian in other software...

.../summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ Interested orgs can apply already up until February 6th (just over a week away as I write). We've taken part many times before, and it's resulted in both new contributors and interesting new features - I think it's well worth applying again. We need some idea of how many potential mentors we have - it's a question that's asked on the application, and we also need to make sure that we aren't listing project ideas which nobody is actually wanting to mentor this year. So if you're interested in mentoring, please talk to James Aylett or me....

...itz mentioned in his introducing "Google Summer of Code 2009" email, I will manage the organizational part of the R-Project application and (hopfully) participation. Google's timeline schedules March 9-13 as date for organizations to make an application as mentoring organization. The idea is now to collect as many project ideas in a brainstorming phase and submit these by March 10. A project proposal consists of: (1) a short description, (2) a detailed description, (3) required skills and (4) the mentors name. I propose, that for each idea, a (5) short programmin...
