21:58:41 | pragyan | Hi I am pragyan I am new to open sourcing and all of this, I am a bit nervous about making my first few contributions, I would like to start off by solving some first timer issues to get familiar with the community and possibly tackle bigger issues in the future,so can someone guide me through the process or like help me make my first contribution to the matrix? |

08:29:28 | | Notkea |
08:32:01 | Notkea | hello, I'd like to work on some bridges ideas that I have. Should I make gsoc project proposals to the gsoc repo? |
08:33:14 | Notkea | also I have a few questions about the bifrost bridge, maybe should I keep those questions for another more specific channel |
08:35:51 | Notkea | can't find any room in the directory though… pokingHalf-Shot |
08:56:48 | Cadair | In reply to @pacien:pacien.net hello, I'd like to work on some bridges ideas that I have. Should I make gsoc project proposals to the gsoc repo? No, the repo is for ideas, proposals should be drafted in Google docs. |
08:58:45 | Notkea | what about idea proposals |
09:00:53 | Notkea | pardon me for my silly questions. The repo is only for mentors? |
09:02:29 | Cadair | Yes the repo is really for mentors. A project idea doesn't need to exist in the repo for you to apply for it, as long as you have a mentor to work with. |
09:02:57 | Notkea | oh ok, thanks |
09:07:06 | Cadair | No worries :) |
18:51:04 | uhoreg | pragyan: pick a project that you're interested in, and look through the issue tracker for that project, and see if you can find something that you think you can work on. Some of the projects have labels like "easy" or "good-first-issue" to mark issues that are good for newcomers to work on. |

09:52:14 | benpa | Notkea: not sure if you found it yet but this is the bifrost room: #bifrost:half-shot.uk |
09:57:23 | Notkea | I forgot about it, thanks! |
10:22:35 | jcgruenhage | Hello people, I'd like to take on the "Finishing matrix-ircd" Idea from the doc. I do have some experience with both Rust and Matrix, but will need to increase my IRC knowledge for this. I've already sent a first PR starting to update the project and would love to continue from there |
10:29:42 | benpa | jcgruenhage: sounds good man |
10:30:31 | benpa | let's figure out who would mentor |
10:30:35 | jcgruenhage | Probably Erik, at least that's what the doc says |
10:31:09 | jcgruenhage | (Would also be the obvious choice because he started the project and is the most into rust out of the core team) |
13:11:02 | thelimitbreaker | @cadair:cadair.com: can I direct message you ? |
13:11:20 | thelimitbreaker | Or benpa ? |
13:15:35 | benpa | either |
13:15:44 | benpa | c4dair is travelling today |
13:16:59 | benpa | general reminder that the acceptance of organisations in to the gsoc programme (including Matrix.org) will be confirmed 26th February - https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/timeline |
13:17:12 | benpa | until then we are only in the application stage |
13:31:29 | thelimitbreaker | In reply to @benpa:matrix.org either Thank you will contact |
