Hello, My name is Misha Patel and I’m reaching out on behalf of the HackIllinois Outreach team. HackIllinois is a 36-hour collegiate Open Source hackathon that takes place annually at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. This year, it will be from February 28th-March 1st, 2020. Our mission is to introduce college students to Open Source, while giving back to the community. We strive to

Hello Xapian Developers, I am writing with feedback on your Help Wanted listing at teachingopensource.org, specifically http://www.teachingopensource.org/index.php/Help_Wanted:_Xapian Overall, I think your project listing looks very well done. On your ideas page, you haven't done a lot to sell/market each idea. Why is development of this specific project going to improve Xapian overall? How

Hi Parth, I implemented DFR algorithms in Xapian as a part of GSOC last year under the mentorship of Olly. This year, I want to work on analyzing and optimizing the performance of the DFR algorithms and comparing them with BM25.I also want to work on profiling the query expansion schemes and test the relevance(precision and recall) / speed(time taken) of the

Just a quick note to mention that we have added a HELPWANTED keyword on bugs.r-project.org for tagging bugs and issues where a good well-tested patch would be particularly appreciated. You can find the HELPWANTED issues by selecting the keyword in the search interface or at https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?keywords=HELPWANTED This URL shows both open and resolved HELPWANTED

Thanks for reaching out on the matter Ilia. I am not to be relied on. If you're lucky, I might be able to take some questions about past work, but cannot make a solid time commitment that warrants being a mentor. Of course, the mentor does not necessarily have to have the deepest understanding of the subject matter. *At the end of the GSOC* a good student should be trusted with having more

Hello. I am an undergraduate student studying computer science and I am interested in working in your Open Source projects. I read about you from TeachingOpenSource.org. I am, however, new to Open Source project development thus I am seeking a mentor and an opportunity to present my skills and make valuable contributions to your projects. Thanking you. -- Varun Agrawal B.Tech-II Computer

I am new to xapian and I want to contribute to xapian but as I am new to both xapian and opensource so can anyone help me to start as I am unable to start. It will be really helpful if someone can assign me any bug to fix that can give me a good start and is easy to do. Akshit -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hello guys, you'll will be happy to know that the current codebase now includes the divergence from randomness weighting schemes which are known to outperform a lot of known weighting schemes such as BM25. Thanks to the amazing mentorship of Olly Betts and Dan Colish, our search results will now be better than before and Xapian will be more preferred in the research community than it was

Dear Xapian community, We've been looking for a search engine to integrate with our Rails applications. Xapian seems to be the most robust and mature of any open source solution out there. But, there were no Ruby bindings. So... I've started work on Ruby SWIG bindings for Xapian. My work is still alpha-quality; expect bugs and expect API changes before we're done. It's

Dear all, at the Division of Clinical Pharmacology at the University of Cape Town (South Africa) we are looking for highly motivated science/engineering PhD graduates to join our pharmacometrics group as a post-doctoral fellow. Pharmacometrics is an emerging discipline that applies mathematical modelling and simulation to pharmacology, aiding the interpretation of data from clinical trials,

well generally I would be available for all the nouveau projects, although I am lacking proper knowledge for a few of those like video acceleration. But I am sure I would be able to dig into stuff enough before the projects starts.
