| yantrashilpi | nhaines, am going to try to get atleast some code into that :). have no idea what I'd work on though. | 18:28 |
| yantrashilpi | then I can go around saying... I helped code that :) | 18:28 |
| nhaines | yantrashilpi: check out the bitesized bugs on launchpad. :) | 18:41 |
| yantrashilpi | doing it right now. | 18:42 |
| nhaines | yantrashilpi: what languages do you program in? | 18:48 |
| yantrashilpi | c, c# are preferred | 18:50 |
| yantrashilpi | nhaines, but i'm leaning towards python now and would really love to do a proper project in c++ | 18:51 |
| yantrashilpi | but maybe that's not even necessary. | 18:51 |
| yantrashilpi | I would really like to do more projects based on modeling methodologies... seems like there is a real lack of tools for that sort of thing on linux. | 18:51 |
| broder | hmm...doesn't look like there are many bitesize bugs against python packages at the moment | 18:52 |
| broder | system-config-printer is python | 18:52 |
| broder | tomboy is c# | 18:52 |
| broder | unity and firefox are c++ | 18:53 |
| broder | everything else is c, i think | 18:53 |
| akk | Anything in KDE or using Qt is C++ | 18:53 |
| broder | err, that's just looking at the ubuntu-desktop packages, sorry | 18:53 |
| yantrashilpi | broder, ahh that's useful information | 18:59 |
| yantrashilpi | i'm just going through the bitesize bugs without any particular focus. If there is something that feels like I can do | 18:59 |
| yantrashilpi | I'll just jump in. Doesn't matter what language. | 18:59 |
| broder | sounds like an excellent plan | 18:59 |
| yantrashilpi | different languages will get me out of my comfort zone. | 19:00 |
| yantrashilpi | broder, can I hit you up for some advice along the way? | 19:00 |
| broder | yantrashilpi: yeah, sure | 19:00 |
| broder | though for many things i'll likely just point you at other people/places/channels | 19:00 |
| yantrashilpi | that's exactly what I'd want. | 19:01 |
| yantrashilpi | granted direct help is great, but sometimes learning by doing is better | 19:02 |
| yantrashilpi | broder, I wanted to work on some bugs in unity. thoughts? | 19:13 |
| broder | yantrashilpi: let's see..unity is all c++. i think #ayatana is probably the best place to ask for help | 19:14 |
| broder | a lot (but not all) of the unity devs are europeans, so you may be starting to hit the end of their work day soon | 19:14 |
| yantrashilpi | oh that's fine, I have a lot of homework to do anyway. | 19:14 |
| pleia2 | http://ubuntu-news.org/2011/06/14/unity-contributor-report-for-14-june/ is probably also worth a read | 19:15 |
| yantrashilpi | do you work on any | 19:15 |
| yantrashilpi | ahh thanks pleia2 | 19:15 |
| pleia2 | (the bottom of the article has lots of good "getting involved" goodies) | 19:16 |
| broder | oh yeah, jcastro does a lot of unity developer recruitment stuff, and he's american at least | 19:16 |
| pleia2 | even if it is michigan | 19:16 |
| pleia2 | :) | 19:16 |
| yantrashilpi | haha, michigan works. | 19:18 |
| yantrashilpi | i like how unity sort of pre-empted MS's START screen. | 19:19 |
| yantrashilpi | seems like a similar idea. | 19:19 |
| nhaines | xyzzy | 19:22 |
| nhaines | Nothing happens. | 19:23 |
| jyo | pleia2: Thanks for the e-mail. :) | 21:43 |
| pleia2 | jyo: sure :) | 21:44 |
