Hello List:
I am interested in putting together an application for Pure Data to participate in next year's Google Summer of Code event. The Summer of Code is an event where students are matched with mentors to work on various open-source projects, and are given a rather generous stipend. More information can be found here: http://code.google.com/soc/
As an organization, Pure Data has applied to participate in GSoC twice in the past and has been rejected. The reasons for rejection are not clear to me, but Hans-Christoph Steiner, who has lead the charge in the past, said that he thinks it is worth trying to reapply. Here is a link to a previous application that was rejected: http://puredata.info/dev/summer-of-code
While perusing through the list of organizations that are participating in 2010's Summer of Code, I couldn't help but notice that many of them were tagged with application to Google's Android OS. Since Pd can be ported to Android, it might be to our benefit to point out Pd's possible application to developing mobile apps.
Alternatively, if nothing pans out for Pd in terms of GSoC (either from rejection of an application or from a lack of interest) it was suggested to me by Andy Farnell to seek alternative sponsorship from possible benefactors such as Sun or EA.
Finally, I'd like to say upfront that I'm a University Student and what originally got me interested in GSoC was the potential prestige and stipend that would accompany participation. If some sort of grant/sponsorship opportunity opens up, I fully intend on applying for it. I ask that if at any point in time it seems as though I am creating an unfair advantage for myself, that someone please let me know.
I hope that as a community we can make something happen! Pat
Thanks for taking the initiative, Patrick. There is at least a lot of
material to start with from previous efforts. I'll happily contribute
to an effort.

I'm definitely interested and willing to help out. I will be a student again starting in the fall, so I'd be eligible to work on it next summer.
I think it's important to not only make a great application but also define what we as a community and the project need to do in order to support the application. This makes me think of things like: getting a list of universities, organizations, and individuals that use pd (with links, logos, etc) expanding the PD showcase of projects made with pd (like the Processing Exhibition) centralizing information: integrating the main pure-data.info wiki, the source forge page, the pd forum, and this list in some way? sort of a more cohesive web presence if that makes sense. Maybe this is not practical ... a wiki section for externals with info and links for all major libraries (including those in pd-extended)

Its a great initiative, although more support for pd on android is interesting and can give a more "google appeal" to it, try to cover many areas where help is needed, like in the previous applications for GSoC.
expanding the PD showcase of projects made with pd (like the Processing
Exhibition http://processing.org/exhibition/) Yep, very important! For instance I learned here in this list that EA used a modified pd for Spore audio synthesis! That should give pd some points :P
best of luck with this year's application, Pedro

Cheers.
We have an exhibition setup, but it could use some nice formatting
from a webdev. I think the plone workflow is easy enough, someone
just needs to do the python/CSS to make the page look nice:

Then, of course, people should add more things to the exhibition.

The arc of history bends towards justice. - Dr. Martin Luther
King, Jr.
Then, of course, people should add more things to the exhibition. Here's how: http://puredata.info/docs/sitedocs/AddingToTheExhibition
If you want material to be added to exhibition, I don't think the current
submission process is a very effective one. One practical example: me and
Servando Barreiro played on a 40min audiovisual laptop performance some
weeks ago, with very good public reaction. But, I think there wasn't any
"affiliated" pd user in the audience, or at least not any one that is
involved in the "community". That means, this project will never make it
to the exhibition, because it's gone now.
Also, there are some local groups of people doing pd, but there aren't to
my knowledge many activities of "pd groups" - and people who even know
this page, or care enough to go through the process of adding something.
Since the project authors can never submit anything, many things will get
lost in the filters.
In fact, in 6 months of existence only you, Hans, and an other person
added entries. Does it means there's not much being done with Pd?
Anyway, if the only condition is not to be affiliated with a project, it's
very easy for 2 persons to agree: "you submit my project, I'll submit
yours". Wouldn't it be better to let everyone submit insteresting
material, and have a group of voluntaries/users filter out the material
that isn't interesting enough? Or a vote system like "let it stay" / "take
it out"?

What submission process? I just added my project myself: https://puredata.info/Members/danomatika/robotcowboy/
You just create a new article and tag it for the Exhibitions section,
In fact, in 6 months of existence only you, Hans, and an other person added entries. Does it means there's not much being done with Pd?
I think one problem is that the exhibitions section is just a bunch of links to the articles instead of images with short descriptions ala Processing: http://processing.org/exhibition/
Also, this content should be on the main page in icon form at least ...

Joao, at this point we've discussed the exhibition page a lot. Its not perfect, but it works. We agreed it should be curated somehow, so it should stay like that. But that doesn't mean there aren't places for submitting your own work. The News for example is for open submission, so submit your project documentation to as a News item.
What submission process? I just added my project myself: https://puredata.info/Members/danomatika/robotcowboy/

Yes, but there is the rule of no self-promotion to make it curated without having limited access.

I don't think anyone disagrees, we just need someone to do the Python/Plone/CSS work to make it like that.

It hasn't happened like that so far, and if it does become a problem, we can talk about it. Right now the problem is an ugly layout and not many submissions, so those would be better to work on.

Well then i take responsibility for it. I hacked Dan's account and added his project in his name. ;o)
One more vote, obviously, that this rule is to be outruled.
BTW reformatting the exhibition... i strongly believe that no python is required for the job, however creating a nice and functional new template+css is kinda big job, i'm not sure it's worth doing it *only* for the the exhibition, but rather for the whole wiki! The question is, do you guys feel it's time for a facelift? (I'm personally ok with the current "spartan" look of the site. A bit too white at night, but alrite for me.)

Shit. Hah. Well, then the submission process is indeed not as obvious as I would have thought. I just followed the guide but somehow missed this rule. There should be a form etc where people can submit their projects.
I removed my article form the exhibition.
Also, I noticed that there are two keywords : "Exhibition" and "exhibition" ...

It doesn't seem to be a submission process that works, because despite several posts to the pd-list over quite a bit of time, virtually nobody has submitted anything. It can be either because of the rule that is ill-adapted to the community, or the lack of advertisement (why not a big loud « Call for Recommendations » that reaches outside of pd-list ?), or perhaps pd users don't need something like that at all (but I'd doubt it).

I agree. Lack of advertisement. Also the pd netverse is not as centrally located as other software communities. I bet that vast majority of people visiting puredata.info do so only to download pd.

I think all of you should advertise submitting projects to the exhibition. I think people are sick of hearing from me about it since I did send quite a few emails promoting it.
