Yes. I found a scheduling horizon of two weeks way too far, especially when starting a project. Experiments need to be much smaller, and doing a daily demo of both successful and unsuccessful experiments helped uncover failures in mental models quickly. Stephan

(slack is probably the best tool for this) then it's just a matter of finding a good time that fits everyone. maybe two or three times will be better if pharo gets more than a few students. however, having everyone join the same meeting helps show everyone how much others get done, and generally should help foster community. greetings, martin. -- eKita - the online platform for your entire academic life -- chief engineer eKita.co pike programmer pike.lysator.liu.se caudium.net societyserver.org secretary beijinglug.org mentor fossasia.org foresight developer foresightlinux.org realss.com unix sysadmin Martin BÃ¤hr working in china http://societyserver.org/mbaehr/

This is > the first time the Pharo commuinity applies. pharo applied last year too. > Maybe this shoule be made clear... how was this question answered last year? the feedback from googles feedback session last year was that there were no issues with the pharo application (there were just to many good organizations to be accepted) to explain the relationship to esug, it may be worth mentioning that at least 6 out of the 10 projects from 2012 were pharo projects. (one was VM, one was a smalltalk tutorial, and two i could not tell from the description) in 2010 also most projects were pharo based or cross-platform (for 2007 and 2008 i can't see the list, so i don't know) http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org2/google/gsoc2012/esug http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org2/google/gsoc2010/esug another way to look at it would be to count which mentors in previous years came from pharo. greetings, martin. -- eKita - the online platform for your entire academic life -- chief engineer eKita.co pike programmer pike.lysator.liu.se caudium.net societyserver.org secretary beijinglug.org mentor fossasia.org foresight developer foresightlinux.org realss.com unix sysadmin Martin BÃ¤hr working in china http://societyserver.org/mbaehr/

Thank you Sven. I don't have time to fix the process at the moment.
