Welcome Students,

We are excited and honored to be working with you this year on Google's Summer of Code, below are some basic instructions and guidelines that students can do in order to help mentors keep track of all the GSoC 2010 projects. Make sure to check on this page every couple weeks as we will be updating it with any topics that will help make students life's a bit easier.

Thanks and we wish you great luck and success with your projects, 
'''The NUI Group Community Mentors'''
</div> 

'''Communications and Discussion''' 
----
One of the best ways to start a discussion is by posting a thread on the forums: (http://nuigroup.com/forums/viewforum/91) 
'''If you have any problems''' (such as technical issues or unresponsive mentor) feel free to email '''gsoc@nuigroup.com''' or (send a message to Skype/IRC as naturalui/nui) 
We are also in IRC as '''#nuigroup or #nuigsoc on the freenode''' network.
 
'''Students and Mentor Mailing List''' 
----
If you have not done so already please join our GSoC mailing list: (http://groups.google.com/group/nuigroup-gsoc)
 
'''Timeline and Important Dates'''
----
Please refer to the GSoC Visual Timeline (http://nuigroup.com/forums/viewthread/8891) 
Also keep an eye on the Google Open Source Blog for any official Google announcements (http://google-opensource.blogspot.com)
 
'''Students and NUI Code/Repositories'''
----

We use NUI Code to track the activity and progress on the projects. Each project has an associated SVN/GIT and repository browser... with this all commits get agregated into a central point. Please use NUI Code as a quick place to organize your projects, it can manage tasks, downloads, roadmaps etc... as well as the act as a code browser (very helpful) If you do not have an SVN or are using another code host (Google Code or GIT) please let a mentor know.

<div style="border:1px #CCCCCC solid; background:#FCFCFC; padding:15px" padding-top: 5px>
Steps: 
1) '''Create a new''' NUI Code Account (if do not have exisiting - http://nuicode.com/account/register) 
2) '''Sign into''' your account and '''navigate to your project''' (Under the GSoC 2010 Homepage) 
3) Click '''"Get Involved"''' and let your mentor know that you have added yourself to the project. 
4) Once verified you will be given '''full administrative access over your project''' page, with this you can control all aspects of the projects. (Look for the '''"Settings"''' Tab) 
5) '''Verify your repository is synchronized''' and you can keep track of your activity with the '''"Activity"''' Tab 
6) Continue to '''update your downloads, documentation and homepage''' through out the project. Add any files such as binaries to the '''"Downloads"''' Tab 
7) To start please '''post a link or upload your GSoC 2010 project proposal''' to your NUI Code page for reference. 
8) Ask your mentor if you have any issues or questions when using NUI Code. 
 
Here is an example project page which you should aim to follow/learn from: http://nuicode.com/projects/tbeta
</div> 
'''Final Reviews and Project Updates'''
----
All students are required to keep an active blog/news pages (Can use NUI Code) for keeping mentors and other students up to date with progress in your project.

Upon GSoC's conclusion and Google's final review we ask that students '''provide the 4 items below''':

<div style="border:1px #CCCCCC solid; background:#FCFCFC; padding:15px" padding-top: 5px>
1) Project Page/Blog URL 
2) Project Downloads (binaries) 
3) Project Source Code (repository) 
4) 1-2 Paragraphs Summarizing your project and GSoC experience.
 

You can find an example of how this will be used here: http://nuigroup.com/log/comments/gsoc_20091
</div>

 
'''Scheduled Mentor/Student Meetings'''
----
Currently we will have '''optional mentor/students meetings every Sunday in IRC @ 8PM PST'''. However it is recommended that each project holds a meeting amongst themselves every 1-2 weeks in whatever communication is chosen by the projects mentor.
