 Hello everybody and welcome to the Jenkins Google summer of code machine learning project office hours. My name is market Jackson. I am one of the mentors for this project along with the honest Bruno. Welcome everybody. Thank you for being here. I will say before we get started that we are under the code of conduct under the Jenkins code of conduct which essentially just boils down to be nice to one another. And awesome. I am going to introduce myself and everybody knows I think most everybody knows me. My name is Markey. I am one of the potential mentors. We call we call us potential mentors until the project is accepted. There are three main potential mentors on this project. That's myself, you know, this and Bruno. So that is who I am. Jonas, would you like to introduce yourself. Good afternoon and good day. Good evening for those other times on. I am in Boston. A research scientist at a pharmaceutical company here and I've been using Jenkins for quite a while now as a tool for research applications and for the last couple of years now. We have proposed these Jenkins machine learning project with Markey and with Bruno. Who I know for quite a few years. And we're looking forward to this interesting project that really opens up Jenkins to totally new domain, which is data sciences. And looking forward to entertaining your proposals and seeing what you guys are able to contribute to the community. Yeah, hi, this is Bruno. I'm based in Auckland, New Zealand, but I'm originally from Brazil. I'm at the moment I'm a research software engineer with a company working with weather and climate. I've used Jenkins for many years, both as a software engineer DevOps and also for life sciences, where I met Jonas many years ago and we've been working together on several projects and ideas that we had. I had a look at the proposal so far this weekend and I'm really happy with what we have and really looking forward to, to having fun with the students work on these proposals. Awesome. Thank you very much. There is a potential new mentor here and that is she they am I saying that correctly. Yes, sir. You're getting. So I call like, oh, everyone pronounces differently. So it's shabai. Shabai. Okay. Thank you. Please introduce yourself. Sure. So good evening and good morning to everyone over here. So I'm Shivalamba. I'm another like I'm trying to be a potential mentor and so I've had like a couple of years of experience working with machine learning and also working with a lot of like automation tools of using Jenkins as a way like Maven projects in Java. So I have a lot of like, I've used a lot of these tools during my software development skills that I've been using in a lot of multinational companies as well. And I also have a decent order exposure to Q flow. So when I heard about this project that is related to something related to both Jenkins and machine learning. I was really excited. And so yeah, I mean, that's pretty much about me. Thank you very much. That was good. Awesome. Thank you very much. If the potential students would like to introduce themselves, please do so. Can you hear me? Yes. Yeah, thank you. I'm logi. I'm logi from Sri Lanka. I'm currently doing my final year in my computer science and engineering. So I would like to participate in GSOC program for the first time. So I had workshops on this GSOC in my university. So I got to know about the Jenkins and there's a GSOC program. So I would like to participate in this particular project because it has intersect Java and Python. So I am interesting in machine learning and also in Java. So it's the perfect project for me. Thank you. Thank you very much. Who else would like to go? And if you don't feel comfortable doing so that is understandable. Okay, we will go ahead and move on. I am going to go into some general news and that is there has been a timeline change. The timeline change does not affect the student's application deadline. That deadline still is March 31 at 11pm Pacific US time. The coding period that has been moved back a few weeks. In the notes I've linked to the developer timeline from Google in regards to that. Some other updates. The potential mentors have gone through and started doing the reviews of applications. We will be doing those reviews throughout today and tomorrow. I will ask that all students submit their drafts to final submission. No later than Monday at 11pm US Pacific. Again, I asked that all students submit their drafts to final. No later than Monday at 11pm US Pacific. And that's because the deadline is March 31. If you have any questions in regards to that, I do see we have a comment where, and I'm going to apologize for not getting your name correct. So I do see a comment in here. It's if the OMA local from Nigeria, and they are apologizing that it's 1am there. And so they can't talk right now. I will add a note here. To the notes. In just a moment, I will be sending out a doodle. Once we choose the student that will be working on this project, we will change this office hours to a different time that's more suitable for everybody. But right now, because we had such a wide list of students that covered so many different time zones. This is what was this is what we saw. This was what was selected on the original doodle that I sent out. Any questions. Okay, well with that I am going to open it up. Let me just see where we are here mentor reviews. I'm going to open it up to any questions that potential students may have. Thank you for the time for you to ask those prior to submissions. I know a lot of people have seen comments from the mentors on your submissions. Okay, no, no questions. None. Okay, that's fine. That's fine. Mentors did you want to add anything. I just wanted to say that the quality of the proposals is very, very good. I was very happy to read them the comments that we tried to make a thing they're meant as guidelines for improving not as criticism. I hope people realize that and hopefully the final submission by March 31st will have improved over the original ones because of these comments. If you still have questions. I think you can still reply in the comments sections of those documents. I think that they are in Google Docs format so that the comments go through. Okay, I think we had one submission where the document was a word document and there were some issues with the comments that we're making on that. I think at least for the students that are participating in the call right now their proposals were in the right format and I believe all of us have have looked at them. They were very good. I'd like to second that really good proposals. So I thank everybody for the time that they put in I know these things are, they can be nerve wracking trust me. I appreciate all the work, not only from the students but also the mentors, they take time out of this it's a volunteer effort so thank you to the mentors as well. Well, I mean that makes it too easy. I will say that before we and before we end this call that if you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out either via the mailing list, or in the getter chat. I think with all of the various time zones I think three mentors currently we cover the time zones fairly well and we're pretty responsive. So do not hesitate. I will add that we will be making our selection for students by, I believe end of day tomorrow. Now, I want to say that if you do not get chosen that was in. I don't want anybody to feel that they didn't get chosen because they didn't do the right things we did we had a lot of people submit more than I had actually expected. That is awesome. But unfortunately, we can only choose one person. And that does not mean you cannot try again the following year. This is a great opportunity to learn about the process. I will ask if any students have any questions please now is the time. Marky I have a question if you if you don't mind. And that is in terms of the final selection of the student what is the exact timeline for that. So the timeline for the, the, I, excuse me, I made a mistake in what I said, your submission must be done by tomorrow. That's what I meant to say. Okay, thank you for correcting me the selection of the students and I'll tell you the exact timeline for that is. But he's not tomorrow. It's not tomorrow. Yes, not tomorrow. You have up until I believe the mentors have up until the 30th to do all of the organizational slots and project selections. The students of projects get announced on May 4. I apologize. I deeply apologize on that. I meant to say that your applications need to be submitted by the end of the day. Final submission end of date. Well, no, excuse me, end of day Tuesday at 11pm Pacific time is when everybody has to submit their draft into final. And I will send out first. Hold on, let me look at it. I'm looking at this. So Tuesday is the 31st, and it's 11am Pacific time. 11am. Let's just add please make sure that we have that right. March 31 11am Pacific time, you are correct. So, let's add that. I mean, you probably have that already in the document or in the in the link, but we'll just clarify that. I am going to March 31 11am Pacific daylight time I added that to the notes. Yes, I have the right time I have the right day I just did not put am in there. Nope, I actually did I put PM. Okay, I have corrected that I apologize. So, are there any other questions from any of the students. Now that I just confused everybody. So just to clarify, you have until March 31 11am Pacific US time. You have to take your, your draft submission in the Google summer code website and move that to final submission. Beautiful. Yes. Okay, if nobody has any questions. If nobody has any questions will conclude this call. Can I ask that? Stay on. Yes, and I will go ahead and stop the recording. Thank you all. Thank you.
