[20:08] <m4sk1n__> what ISOs should I download to be ready for google code-in? :P
[20:10] <m4sk1n__> (for which variants of Ubuntu there will be tasks?)
[20:27] <m4sk1n> ok, thanks
[20:31] <sergiusens> elopio I am a mentor too, and happen to know some Spanish ;-)
[20:33] <m4sk1n> task suggestion: translate tasks for next year to your native language ;)
[20:33] <tsimonq2> hah :D
[20:34] <svij> :D
[20:39] <tsimonq2> I gotta go, thanks everyone!
[20:39] <Letozaf> o/
[20:44] <svij> we should also update the topic :)
[20:44] <svij> (irc topic)
[20:51] <elopio> Letozaf: kyrofa: wxl: svij: tsimonq2: Thanks for coming!
[20:51] <m4sk1n> :)
[20:51] <svij> elopio: thanks for organizing and leadin! :)
[20:52] <wxl> glad to be ther e:)
[20:52] <elopio> did I miss somebody? Thanks m4sk1n and sergiusens for joining the chat.
[20:52] <m4sk1n> joined with hope for more gci-related stuff :D
[20:53] <kyrofa> m4sk1n, do you have any more specific questions?
[20:53] <wxl> you can thank @elyul@mastodon.art :)
[20:53] <m4sk1n> no, no questions, but it's always better to know more :)
[20:54] <elopio> m4sk1n: you have like 10 mentors hanging around here.
[20:54] <kyrofa> m4sk1n, yeah seriously. What do you want to know?
[20:54] <kyrofa> More info about tasks? How to prepare?
[20:54] <elopio> m4sk1n: are you interested in any particular area of the community?
[20:55] <m4sk1n> mainly basic coding stuff and l10n
[20:56] <kyrofa> m4sk1n, any language in particular?
[20:56] <m4sk1n> Polish
[20:56] <kyrofa> And programming language?
[20:56] <m4sk1n> programming – c++
[20:56] <kyrofa> Hmm, I suspect we don't have many C++ tasks
[20:57] <m4sk1n> ok
[20:57] <kyrofa> Are you interested in translating tutorials?
[20:57] <m4sk1n> yup
[20:57] <kyrofa> Nice, like elopio mentioned we have several translation tasks lines up, and they're his baby
[20:58] <kyrofa> m4sk1n, are you familiar with git and github?
[20:58] <m4sk1n> of course
[20:58] <kyrofa> The tutorials are in github, and are written in markdown, so you already have the skills required for that
[20:59] <elopio> kyrofa: m4sk1n: we have c++ projects to package :)
[21:00] <elopio> m4sk1n: can I insterest you in snapcraft?
[21:00] <m4sk1n> ok :)
[21:00] <kyrofa> elopio, ah, nice I didn't realize we had C++ projects lined up
[21:02] <elopio> kyrofa: m4sk1n: I have a very cool one in mind: https://github.com/thepowersgang/mrustc
[21:02] <kyrofa> elopio, think it would be fun to have a kick-off HO once GCI starts? It would have to be when high schoolers are available, a weekend probably
[21:03] <kyrofa> Hmm, interesting
[21:03] <elopio> m4sk1n: the idea is to make a snap package from that project that will be easy to install on many linux distros. You can start by following snapcraft tutorials in tutorials.ubuntu.com, and next week we will help you to package it.
[21:04] <elopio> kyrofa: let's do it! I think Alan will like that a lot.
[21:04] <m4sk1n> I know the idea behind snaps
[21:05] <elopio> m4sk1n: you seem to be ready now :) If you want to start now, I see no reason to wait. That is, if you like that task. If not, we have others.
[21:06] <wxl> kyrofa: in case you missed it https://community.ubuntu.com/t/discourse-mobile/2233?u=wxl
[21:06] <kyrofa> wxl, just saw it, thank you!
[21:07] <m4sk1n> I'll take a look
