1
00:00:11,910 --> 00:00:12,330
everyone

2
00:00:14,750 --> 00:00:18,640
just a bit about myself first so you
know what i'm talking about this i

3
00:00:19,150 --> 00:00:21,980
first became involved as them contributor

4
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,910
if you years ago when they put the speakers
and outreach program and i have

5
00:00:25,910 --> 00:00:31,530
some state on and it's i have a meant
to the number of vendors i

6
00:00:31,530 --> 00:00:36,550
have mended to attic outreach program
of the one now and if you outside the

7
00:00:36,550 --> 00:00:37,450
program as well

8
00:00:38,090 --> 00:00:40,520
i've become quite involved in the comedian should think

9
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:46,140
and now i will depart will work with people
who are actually starting actually to

10
00:00:46,140 --> 00:00:47,560
the community for the first time

11
00:00:48,550 --> 00:00:52,000
and well you what might have very different expectations

12
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:57,540
and some people come as the user
like as i have so i have been

13
00:00:57,540 --> 00:01:01,370
a user for sex seven to half years now
but then each arts are contributing

14
00:01:01,370 --> 00:01:02,090
a few years ago

15
00:01:02,710 --> 00:01:06,940
and some people come to work for example
if they are doing an internship with

16
00:01:06,940 --> 00:01:08,030
a company and

17
00:01:08,660 --> 00:01:13,420
and they're not companies and opened them
they might want for their interns to work

18
00:01:13,420 --> 00:01:15,370
with the community to fix some bugs

19
00:01:16,860 --> 00:01:17,930
that happens quite often

20
00:01:18,420 --> 00:01:22,870
so gently percent someone comes along which
is exactly what type of this well as

21
00:01:22,870 --> 00:01:25,960
almost everyone does that is they just went about to fix

22
00:01:26,510 --> 00:01:30,310
a somehow fix that usually some really bad patch

23
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,890
and they further with the wall but still
it and for get about that well

24
00:01:34,890 --> 00:01:38,230
maybe not forget about that in quite
that way sometimes they will

25
00:01:38,730 --> 00:01:42,730
say come back to the few among like to
save why hasn't this been committed

26
00:01:42,730 --> 00:01:49,490
or if you sometimes the developer mentally
or one of the other developers will review

27
00:01:49,490 --> 00:01:53,200
it and commit that some still just outright
rejected that in your reasons

28
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,860
and sometimes they'll just fix it up themselves
and tell us so possibly back to

29
00:01:57,860 --> 00:01:59,430
the person who actually wrote that's

30
00:02:00,370 --> 00:02:05,120
and so it varies quite a lot but so
that's but actually get he'd become

31
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,310
for the community and it just doesn't
work with getting people

32
00:02:10,190 --> 00:02:12,990
people see that happen and they just me because

33
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:14,750
they didn't get anything

34
00:02:17,100 --> 00:02:17,830
so

35
00:02:19,140 --> 00:02:23,660
the way to actually become point meetings
to talk to the can if you can

36
00:02:23,660 --> 00:02:27,580
talk to the person who's doing work
for you that you didn't get to know

37
00:02:27,580 --> 00:02:31,800
you don't understand why maybe the drinks
things a certain way which are not happy

38
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:36,650
with as well and as the contributing you might
not understand what the developer is

39
00:02:36,650 --> 00:02:39,780
trying to get you do something
like you don't think is right

40
00:02:40,710 --> 00:02:46,270
so you really need to talk to people and
also i think starting are usually

41
00:02:46,270 --> 00:02:53,260
just mousey it was really friendly there's no
harm in just asking questions and generally

42
00:02:53,260 --> 00:02:55,310
people get really positive responses

43
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:03,920
there are like we actually have
i name lot of fruit which is

44
00:03:04,990 --> 00:03:11,710
which consists of difference a lot across
all the aspects we have people who are

45
00:03:11,710 --> 00:03:14,300
willing to mentoring all once more tasks for all

46
00:03:14,990 --> 00:03:17,960
would like you can go and ask that
you can just look at the list

47
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,840
of people and you can go up to
them and ask and almost at all

48
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,770
the will just say sure all hope you all that you

49
00:03:25,460 --> 00:03:30,550
so it's definitely what talking and actually
the best thing you can do is talk

50
00:03:30,550 --> 00:03:32,010
to people at conferences

51
00:03:32,410 --> 00:03:36,230
even if you're not really for the community
at it's so what's going because you

52
00:03:36,230 --> 00:03:41,150
can actually meet everyone and you just become
really involved when you realise ones also

53
00:03:43,430 --> 00:03:46,180
so ask for help

54
00:03:47,140 --> 00:03:49,670
use the resources that are available

55
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:55,700
and just try to get in there and
some get people to help you and

56
00:03:56,070 --> 00:03:58,090
but you need to actually ask what the hell

57
00:03:59,470 --> 00:04:03,450
and sometimes people might be a little bit
want one event like you and something

58
00:04:03,450 --> 00:04:04,610
like you very much

59
00:04:05,210 --> 00:04:07,750
we have had the location box somewhere

60
00:04:08,050 --> 00:04:11,650
someone's well the wide explains why they thought
that was about and that's always come

61
00:04:11,650 --> 00:04:14,590
along and said that it's possible and after that

62
00:04:15,490 --> 00:04:17,160
i don't happens and that's okay

63
00:04:18,150 --> 00:04:19,840
people have lives outside

64
00:04:20,850 --> 00:04:25,850
so not everyone actually has time to go
through every single but that like gets

65
00:04:25,850 --> 00:04:30,680
filed against the project and you really liked
about you explain how the point have

66
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:36,200
works in detail because actually that is very
time-consuming i can relate to that because

67
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,210
i have on occasion had so

68
00:04:38,620 --> 00:04:43,940
some people like file loads of bugs in one
go and attach say twenty patches

69
00:04:43,940 --> 00:04:48,020
each of which that takes a whole data
review and let's be honest i don't

70
00:04:48,020 --> 00:04:53,360
have twenty days to review twenty patches
because i've got work to do i've got

71
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,970
other projects to contribute that i'm working
on a of like outside the minutes

72
00:04:57,570 --> 00:04:59,380
and that's just one right expects

73
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,660
okay innocent for viewers to actually
be able to deal with that

74
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,930
and i know it's have we does happen
to other people in the spring

75
00:05:07,630 --> 00:05:13,570
so please don't do that to maintain
is these them do that to a review

76
00:05:13,570 --> 00:05:17,210
it's just not very fair on them and you
will actually get really bad results

77
00:05:17,790 --> 00:05:18,990
as a contributor

78
00:05:20,020 --> 00:05:25,090
so try to like it's the first batch is
always the most difficult one out

79
00:05:25,090 --> 00:05:30,270
of all the patches so contributors need to
try be considered was the review where

80
00:05:30,270 --> 00:05:34,930
is try to make it easier for the patch
to be reviewed which usually means

81
00:05:34,930 --> 00:05:36,260
it's actually easiest to

82
00:05:36,570 --> 00:05:39,380
to if we are first batch to be a really small sites

83
00:05:39,860 --> 00:05:41,060
just a short patch to fix

84
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:41,910
my

85
00:05:42,830 --> 00:05:45,510
rather than a very big one which anson
if each or something like that

86
00:05:46,700 --> 00:05:52,080
and us be patient but you contribute is
like we don't always know that someone

87
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:56,670
is who has just well the patch is
the it's really difficult to tell

88
00:05:57,030 --> 00:05:57,440
and

89
00:05:57,990 --> 00:06:00,950
to be honest there is no way of knowing
allegedly actually talked about

90
00:06:01,550 --> 00:06:06,060
so we should always talk to the contributors
and always find out why there are

91
00:06:06,060 --> 00:06:09,010
these huge patches all of a sudden when we never heard

92
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:15,270
and the sometimes it's actually rather the going
back and forth and reading something say

93
00:06:15,270 --> 00:06:18,730
for and having twenty reviews catalogue
still which is a real pain

94
00:06:19,340 --> 00:06:23,470
just sometimes maybe austin trying what something smaller

95
00:06:23,810 --> 00:06:26,130
and get back to that once there but for experience

96
00:06:29,330 --> 00:06:30,130
of course

97
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:35,730
then you can choose can always make
it easier for us to review and we

98
00:06:35,730 --> 00:06:36,750
really appreciate that

99
00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:40,700
and the best way to do that is to
actually find out how the project

100
00:06:40,700 --> 00:06:43,810
works because different projects but for different what

101
00:06:44,890 --> 00:06:49,950
i want to completion team and generally would prefer
for new contributors go through bookseller

102
00:06:49,950 --> 00:06:52,890
because than anyone that you review the work

103
00:06:53,860 --> 00:06:58,060
and we have quite high standards for what we want to and is

104
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:03,040
we spent a lot of time getting our project
up to really good quality and

105
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,560
we would like that so we don't we don't
accept at every single patch that

106
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:11,550
comes along something as we go back and forth
with review what before we're happy

107
00:07:11,550 --> 00:07:11,790
that

108
00:07:12,420 --> 00:07:17,250
and we are trying to get the person who's contributing
to actually perfected themselves rather

109
00:07:17,250 --> 00:07:22,060
than touching up attachments all you have for think
minor things like indentation what senator

110
00:07:22,060 --> 00:07:23,230
some other projects

111
00:07:23,510 --> 00:07:27,310
but a is will just take a patch and
they will fix some things like

112
00:07:27,310 --> 00:07:27,850
that so

113
00:07:28,950 --> 00:07:30,820
and that based on project what

114
00:07:31,770 --> 00:07:36,780
for example well like and then we most
of us prefer for patches to get

115
00:07:36,780 --> 00:07:43,530
about so sometimes like very small patches
are some artsy just expand very is very

116
00:07:43,530 --> 00:07:43,930
small

117
00:07:44,790 --> 00:07:48,750
or by email directly to them and they know or reviewer

118
00:07:49,820 --> 00:07:53,480
but generally to about so on the other hand
there other projects which have quite

119
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,670
a different one for example for the current
know all the patches good for me

120
00:07:56,670 --> 00:07:56,890
let's

121
00:07:57,890 --> 00:08:00,510
and that can be quite scary to present you do that

122
00:08:01,060 --> 00:08:05,560
because generally it's a completely different
way of sending patches and it

123
00:08:05,930 --> 00:08:11,320
but if the contributors knows what we
expect of that and that we know what

124
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,740
they expect of us than this whole process is easier

125
00:08:15,820 --> 00:08:20,050
of course it does actually help what
and this is where many contributors

126
00:08:20,470 --> 00:08:25,120
fail slightly and that they didn't test
their patches they didn't build

127
00:08:25,690 --> 00:08:27,680
and they didn't test whether everything

128
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,900
so i was actually quite cumbersome to explain
so why for example the change gold

129
00:08:33,900 --> 00:08:35,640
installation is not working

130
00:08:36,210 --> 00:08:41,790
for i see it's very difficult and so i
recently i was recently working with

131
00:08:41,790 --> 00:08:42,980
a girl who

132
00:08:43,500 --> 00:08:47,670
was trying to use change build one last
time and took her two weeks to

133
00:08:47,670 --> 00:08:52,520
get to working state for a very simple
application which for me builds out of

134
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:53,030
the box

135
00:08:53,730 --> 00:08:54,300
i just

136
00:08:54,750 --> 00:08:58,970
it took me five that's get built
a form at the two weeks i don't

137
00:08:58,970 --> 00:09:04,200
actually very difficult to debug that's but
it's really what they have to because now

138
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:08,400
that she has a running she's actually able
to document the latest version of the

139
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,600
application what's in boston which
means she's not we still have

140
00:09:12,980 --> 00:09:15,190
by fixing things which are really fixed

141
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,750
and of course what also happens what open is that

142
00:09:21,390 --> 00:09:25,180
like will submit a patch and the whole
set of the solar it for more

143
00:09:25,180 --> 00:09:29,600
maybe for to just because i think that
might be busy there someone else to

144
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,350
you about also happens

145
00:09:32,930 --> 00:09:35,200
it's really worth being page

146
00:09:36,650 --> 00:09:38,710
it really is but on the other

147
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,920
that you need for up as a contributor if you don't

148
00:09:44,500 --> 00:09:49,280
then your patch much of sport and that
will become obsolete that's not really

149
00:09:49,910 --> 00:09:51,170
what that to be honest

150
00:09:51,530 --> 00:09:54,300
it's a waste of your time as a contributor
it's a waste of them they

151
00:09:54,300 --> 00:09:55,010
have time

152
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,620
as maintainer because paul we don't meet someone
else of concept of ready fixed we

153
00:09:58,620 --> 00:09:59,010
had

154
00:10:00,140 --> 00:10:03,760
so far the with your and for work with a review

155
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,710
but be patient since my kids people because
people really didn't like that and they

156
00:10:09,710 --> 00:10:11,620
want treaty as well if you do that

157
00:10:13,090 --> 00:10:16,470
and of course it as i was saying it always
helps to make good contribution

158
00:10:17,150 --> 00:10:20,800
so make sure your contributions of a high
quality the best you can do you

159
00:10:21,560 --> 00:10:28,060
and maybe you should so consider talking to the community
before you actually start making

160
00:10:28,570 --> 00:10:30,750
before you start writing it because

161
00:10:31,220 --> 00:10:36,850
sometimes the development data have very specific
ideas about how they want to certain about

162
00:10:36,850 --> 00:10:40,710
six i'm not might not be compatible with yours
and sometimes they're the different ways

163
00:10:40,710 --> 00:10:42,040
to fix the same power

164
00:10:43,260 --> 00:10:47,110
so do to go back and actually talk to people

165
00:10:47,500 --> 00:10:49,790
do discuss how you're going to fix things

166
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:55,360
and if you're reviewing patch assessment
think that or if you're

167
00:10:56,010 --> 00:10:57,500
tell them what you expect

168
00:10:59,070 --> 00:11:01,980
don't accept that you shouldn't always accepts

169
00:11:03,010 --> 00:11:05,730
i've fixed which are not what we have
to it's not it is actually what

170
00:11:05,730 --> 00:11:09,990
going back and asking people to fix stuff
that way because then they realise that

171
00:11:09,990 --> 00:11:11,840
what they're doing your thing and the like

172
00:11:13,090 --> 00:11:13,950
and that's all have

173
00:11:15,390 --> 00:11:20,970
so also make so you know you know
what the work for your project is

174
00:11:20,970 --> 00:11:24,760
busy much for each other that well into business with what

175
00:11:25,350 --> 00:11:28,180
this they have talked to them and
they you know whatever fever

176
00:11:29,290 --> 00:11:29,980
stick to

177
00:11:30,650 --> 00:11:35,670
tried to comply because that will make the reviewer's
job easier and the that means

178
00:11:35,670 --> 00:11:39,270
they will have more time to if you know
patches or they will have more

179
00:11:39,270 --> 00:11:41,730
likely some losses patches either way what you but

180
00:11:46,010 --> 00:11:51,470
and once you start contributing you've contributed
if you times you are get to know

181
00:11:51,470 --> 00:11:53,680
what the project is like you know work with that

182
00:11:54,660 --> 00:11:55,590
and you something

183
00:11:56,560 --> 00:11:59,160
most of the people from the community

184
00:11:59,700 --> 00:12:04,310
and if you actually don't really have all the project
you should become foundation that's

185
00:12:04,310 --> 00:12:05,100
how it works

186
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:09,280
as a punishment thank you get small
parts it's very good and you get a

187
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:10,600
bit for the board as well

188
00:12:13,990 --> 00:12:17,700
so this is actually more like what you expect

189
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,620
you don't want you to be a you'll find
your problem and starts firing up

190
00:12:22,620 --> 00:12:26,340
i try to michael sometimes you will if
a simple boxing might but actually but

191
00:12:26,340 --> 00:12:30,050
average want you might find that your about
an application you think that's it

192
00:12:30,370 --> 00:12:31,580
it might be something else

193
00:12:32,230 --> 00:12:35,750
and you need to find that and you need
to fix beverage that's the right

194
00:12:35,750 --> 00:12:36,840
way to do things

195
00:12:38,070 --> 00:12:40,700
it's actually in the long run better for the whole projects

196
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,970
if you don't take shortcuts do things
for me if you know who to talk

197
00:12:44,970 --> 00:12:48,740
to and you actually that are out who
to talked about certain parts of the

198
00:12:48,740 --> 00:12:49,240
project

199
00:12:50,100 --> 00:12:51,410
it comes with experience

200
00:12:52,500 --> 00:12:54,540
but that is actually you want you should

201
00:12:57,100 --> 00:13:01,460
okay with me to of got simply who is white
under from the previous outreach

202
00:13:01,460 --> 00:13:01,890
program

203
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:10,560
she has actually had experiences with which
is what we surely so tribute lots here

204
00:13:10,560 --> 00:13:12,460
which is good for you have you found

205
00:13:18,150 --> 00:13:20,470
i i'm single

206
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:27,730
i'm very send job change program from
an intern in thought now i'm doing we

207
00:13:27,730 --> 00:13:29,810
will some record internship but no

208
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:37,280
still a i mean you tell you my experience
is we how we started country

209
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,640
rooting through the documentation team

210
00:13:41,610 --> 00:13:47,520
first are still free eight years i'd
use you know for each years now in

211
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,960
to i the only question in the back
my head with how do i start

212
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,560
okay start you know with the starting
point with the start button

213
00:13:56,170 --> 00:13:57,040
and they'll

214
00:13:57,530 --> 00:14:02,800
true do you might experience i learned that you
just start with your favourite application

215
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,500
or me whichever application using your favourites

216
00:14:07,030 --> 00:14:11,660
so look for buttons look for problems
in your favourite application

217
00:14:12,560 --> 00:14:14,110
in start small

218
00:14:14,950 --> 00:14:22,550
i didn't i couldn't do anything big
the first batch i mean what a one

219
00:14:22,550 --> 00:14:28,800
line change and non dictionary documentation
it was just one line you know he was

220
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:33,920
way small but what i did that i could
i could start making other step

221
00:14:35,290 --> 00:14:39,520
and tell i have to learn a couple of new tools like mallard

222
00:14:40,010 --> 00:14:42,520
for writing this hell

223
00:14:43,070 --> 00:14:47,190
and i did not know how to order hungry
start using all the stuff i

224
00:14:47,190 --> 00:14:48,610
don't remember but i don't know

225
00:14:49,260 --> 00:14:54,320
and i sort okay so i'm gonna open
up an editor and i'm gonna use

226
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,890
mallard to make a page about myself i like so and so

227
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:04,840
and there in about ten to fifteen minutes
that evening i lunch mallard

228
00:15:05,450 --> 00:15:12,180
i wrote everything about myself in that
page and so i use that to make

229
00:15:12,180 --> 00:15:13,610
a fun project for that evening

230
00:15:15,650 --> 00:15:19,410
nine next step what do we this light words

231
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,780
in be sign words are we keep ages

232
00:15:23,540 --> 00:15:29,150
you google upstart you go to non week
and you meet real people in these

233
00:15:29,150 --> 00:15:33,080
real people who are on i receive mailing this chat

234
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:38,140
so or we could just are nothing but
sign words they tell you to talk

235
00:15:38,140 --> 00:15:43,990
to our what you can expect from the project
what tell tasks that ought to

236
00:15:43,990 --> 00:15:45,220
be completed in the project

237
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,130
these are the sign words you must read
and there in plain english so anybody

238
00:15:50,130 --> 00:15:51,060
can understand it

239
00:15:53,390 --> 00:15:58,920
then i have a question how can i help how can i do my part

240
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,930
when i did not know what i can do or how we can start i

241
00:16:02,930 --> 00:16:06,580
did that one question everyone how can
i help there is nothing in a list

242
00:16:06,580 --> 00:16:10,470
of the gonna love that it's me so
i asked the person i'm talking to

243
00:16:10,470 --> 00:16:11,940
do you know anything i can do

244
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:18,800
and you would give me a related stuff
so i'd like to onto that in

245
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:19,790
do more things

246
00:16:21,130 --> 00:16:25,870
this is my favourite a lot one of your mentors

247
00:16:26,390 --> 00:16:32,240
so i think about in so it's in the procedure
of being sold someone's asking

248
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,780
to do something on the page and
i want to watch it i want to

249
00:16:35,780 --> 00:16:39,670
know how they're going to fix that
wanna watch them fix it so i see

250
00:16:39,670 --> 00:16:43,670
myself there is a there is a call
them would like to add your email

251
00:16:44,410 --> 00:16:49,180
the but it and i a lot how people are
doing things i don't participate

252
00:16:49,180 --> 00:16:54,490
i just well i watch the conversation
up till the end in so i learn

253
00:16:54,490 --> 00:16:58,640
new things from looking at a lot
of it long working and what is a

254
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:03,200
what is appreciated what is not appreciated
i learn by observation

255
00:17:05,990 --> 00:17:11,270
so once i start walking i mean it
starts printing a little faster

256
00:17:12,490 --> 00:17:18,140
the first step and sprinting is just start
talking to participate to say but hey

257
00:17:18,140 --> 00:17:20,400
i'm interested and that's you know to raise up your hand

258
00:17:21,150 --> 00:17:23,290
and when i mean participates

259
00:17:23,770 --> 00:17:28,590
i look at the but page in if there
is anything not all is not

260
00:17:28,590 --> 00:17:33,040
something i don't understand i mean try
to commence but before it was that it

261
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:38,560
meant i'm going to read it and
see if i asked what i want to

262
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:43,850
know what i what answer what answer to
the question i want to receive feel

263
00:17:43,850 --> 00:17:47,670
i make sure my questions are simple

264
00:17:48,250 --> 00:17:54,800
there specifically about something
i meet my commands before i posted

265
00:17:55,430 --> 00:17:57,640
and i get the conversation going

266
00:17:58,990 --> 00:18:05,700
the next step that i did when i start contributing
with do is cancer documentation

267
00:18:05,700 --> 00:18:09,910
i'm i have terrible lack of focus and so

268
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:18,240
i got the resources the resources for a project
ready sell your looking at documentation

269
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:19,250
out there is

270
00:18:19,670 --> 00:18:25,970
our a know develop a lot of our project
style guide open projects that i

271
00:18:25,970 --> 00:18:29,710
feel it's all our data but it's what
they read in the menu scheme to

272
00:18:29,710 --> 00:18:31,320
read you become familiar with

273
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:35,340
many parks that you want to describe in your documentation

274
00:18:36,380 --> 00:18:41,560
in that there is another kind in line documentation
when i started no i'm somewhat

275
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:41,960
of course

276
00:18:42,620 --> 00:18:43,170
you know

277
00:18:44,150 --> 00:18:48,210
okay so it was like order start from
problem know what to use in there

278
00:18:48,210 --> 00:18:53,760
is in line core blocks documentation so these
are information about what functions you can

279
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,890
use and there within and like pretty so
i started reading that a with this

280
00:18:57,890 --> 00:19:00,770
i can do this so that's good but don't know

281
00:19:01,790 --> 00:19:07,380
when i did not know what's going
on or i face didn't have a or

282
00:19:07,380 --> 00:19:11,080
a syntax that or any kind of at a i
just simply copy paste the

283
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:15,030
thing in google and look it up and
look it up in many different ways

284
00:19:15,030 --> 00:19:16,330
many different such very nice

285
00:19:16,850 --> 00:19:22,260
because i the one can help myself best
because i know the problem in sell

286
00:19:22,260 --> 00:19:26,550
it's high likely that there are other people
like me facing the same problem looking

287
00:19:26,550 --> 00:19:28,350
for a solution so

288
00:19:29,010 --> 00:19:35,040
all people as you that they're unique case
no that's not true you problem you're

289
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:40,140
facing it's not it's very likely that someone
else had the same problem and he's

290
00:19:40,140 --> 00:19:41,810
posted on mailing lists right

291
00:19:42,010 --> 00:19:45,630
so if you have a much that you could to go you can fix it

292
00:19:45,630 --> 00:19:46,140
yourself

293
00:19:47,910 --> 00:19:52,140
and then another thing i for with turned the page backwards

294
00:19:53,100 --> 00:19:56,500
i follow examples how do it by observing stuff

295
00:19:57,180 --> 00:20:02,770
so i have originally use a manual for non
dictionary in someone's later i came

296
00:20:02,770 --> 00:20:07,390
to know of that it wasn't released
so would be what i did with not

297
00:20:07,390 --> 00:20:12,340
available for packaging for users to
see the use of manual is not there

298
00:20:12,910 --> 00:20:16,810
in a i i'm gonna do it myself how

299
00:20:17,270 --> 00:20:21,840
so i went to the we keep pages i went
through previous really them it's

300
00:20:22,420 --> 00:20:24,010
and i just

301
00:20:24,460 --> 00:20:28,940
although the same step by step thing
and i ended up doing big non fiction

302
00:20:28,940 --> 00:20:31,930
and we used by myself in the help of my

303
00:20:32,630 --> 00:20:34,420
man you know

304
00:20:36,020 --> 00:20:36,680
so

305
00:20:37,140 --> 00:20:40,590
keep your keep your options open look at examples

306
00:20:41,430 --> 00:20:47,700
and don't is better than perfect so
when i first run and around the of

307
00:20:47,700 --> 00:20:53,840
the relief we do with of my mentor already
manual sell he you know you

308
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:58,840
could fix that there was suggestions back
and forth and it was nice it's better

309
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:02,060
than perfect just put it out there so they're
gonna tell you what's wrong and

310
00:21:02,060 --> 00:21:05,160
you can work on it you can you can
see previous example you can learn

311
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:05,690
from it

312
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:14,280
okay now that we did good sprinter let's
start running in the though and how

313
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,610
do you do it fast you might read faster

314
00:21:18,270 --> 00:21:19,070
specifies the

315
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:24,830
and i when i submitted patches on a on but
pages i'm each other my

316
00:21:24,830 --> 00:21:28,720
email was right next to me i was glancing
at it because they are it's

317
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,770
likely your review will give you an instant
review or you'll have to bring someone

318
00:21:32,770 --> 00:21:36,420
with whatever it is people watcher we
email in you will be subscribe to the

319
00:21:36,420 --> 00:21:41,480
what we also you can communicate when
that person is we see are you gotta

320
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:45,380
you don't you should weights on the person
was gonna give your review

321
00:21:46,130 --> 00:21:46,960
and so

322
00:21:48,180 --> 00:21:52,980
if you're gonna be fast you gonna get ahead
in i submit things that standard

323
00:21:52,980 --> 00:21:57,750
patches and you catching up on the reviews
you know don't let other people weeks

324
00:21:57,750 --> 00:22:00,830
for you writing as soon as you see it do it

325
00:22:01,700 --> 00:22:03,980
and learn from your function

326
00:22:04,470 --> 00:22:10,300
well when i was in the audience for government
internship my mentor how to repeatedly

327
00:22:10,300 --> 00:22:15,150
fee and i decided that you know a very
limited amount of memory what i'm

328
00:22:15,150 --> 00:22:18,120
gonna do doesn't make check with i'm gonna make czech bliss

329
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,990
so i can run my work against it every
time i submitted and this is

330

331
00:22:27,380 --> 00:22:31,930
level in the product of have so when i
don't check list your use different

332
00:22:31,930 --> 00:22:36,370
sections my what what's out review
because i can help myself best

333
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:40,660
in that i can learn from examples
i can learn from previous advice

334
00:22:40,990 --> 00:22:42,180
i just need to make a check with

335
00:22:43,360 --> 00:22:49,560
in i i'd like to say the support the greatest
like tell us tell you

336
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:50,420
and remember that

337
00:22:50,900 --> 00:22:55,870
it is for other member and it's go
on what are what are we couldn't

338
00:22:55,870 --> 00:23:01,380
do you know it was three there or so i write
everything down unnecessary everything

339
00:23:01,380 --> 00:23:06,410
that i would have done so because it is
useful for other somebody else like

340
00:23:06,410 --> 00:23:09,790
you is looking for help any you write
down if you pick something if your

341
00:23:09,790 --> 00:23:14,800
family something it helps it helps that some
other person is going through the same

342
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,730
thing as you so you are documenting your
learning process in so you should make

343
00:23:18,730 --> 00:23:20,980
we keep pages check this out

344
00:23:21,750 --> 00:23:25,530
but i was somewhat you learn what you
fix what you're not able to learn

345
00:23:25,530 --> 00:23:28,630
your problems it's good to write things down

346
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:36,400
now we have a started running are doing
good for doing good in we cannot

347
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:41,180
on long distance and they say this is something
i've been falling for a while

348
00:23:41,180 --> 00:23:41,390
now

349
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:49,580
i'm be snoopy person so i still one
people on but don't know in a

350
00:23:49,580 --> 00:23:52,390
there is a but law a

351
00:23:52,660 --> 00:23:55,410
people use but the love for submitting patches

352
00:23:55,940 --> 00:24:00,340
one of them is you folder you mentors you
can watch your mentors activities so

353
00:24:00,340 --> 00:24:05,010
you know what of what your views the giving
you can learn from their comments

354
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:09,580
and so you can see the new but i think i hope you can you

355
00:24:09,580 --> 00:24:14,800
can watch projects so you can see new
bucks or you can also make bookmarks

356
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:20,490
that you can check for particular keywords so
you're interested in fixing easy no buttons

357
00:24:20,490 --> 00:24:23,860
what market you can check out you can
search but if you can book market

358
00:24:23,860 --> 00:24:25,000
you can check it once in a while

359
00:24:26,940 --> 00:24:30,660
that's about the like tricks like that
and i i've written a lot was about

360
00:24:30,660 --> 00:24:34,380
how you can start of you know keeping
on top of but will activity can

361
00:24:34,380 --> 00:24:36,080
see that at the end like the end

362
00:24:36,770 --> 00:24:37,230
and

363
00:24:38,030 --> 00:24:43,560
you must allow people to have okay
so you use to be open you have

364
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,850
you of you have some questions and we a little

365
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:53,910
get you authors you so if i think something
for me she saw something for

366
00:24:53,910 --> 00:24:57,480
me at anybody saw something for me
i would ask them what to do that

367
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:58,410
i wanna know that

368
00:24:58,660 --> 00:25:02,740
you know you a because you should
learn from how they've done it

369
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:07,820
still you can teach someone else you can learn
yourself in the learning process that

370
00:25:07,820 --> 00:25:08,260
going on

371
00:25:09,980 --> 00:25:11,420
next one is not

372
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:18,710
an alignment still be documentation according
you need we can test what you've written what

373
00:25:18,710 --> 00:25:19,180
you've done

374
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:24,360
in the just like get a little tricky because
there a couple options and what

375
00:25:24,360 --> 00:25:27,990
might well a somehow what everyone else

376
00:25:28,410 --> 00:25:33,000
so i've been told to install it it's built for some time

377
00:25:34,110 --> 00:25:39,910
why render of every know i hide open
and if they used the edge build

378
00:25:39,910 --> 00:25:46,090
sell it gentleness get but it didn't
work for me so i have an alternate

379
00:25:46,090 --> 00:25:48,700
method how i do things like compile build that

380
00:25:49,310 --> 00:25:52,850
so whatever what's the you look it up and stick to it

381
00:25:53,740 --> 00:25:55,940
makes you do new things

382
00:25:56,730 --> 00:26:01,110
i start the documentation in i was
interested according fixing about

383
00:26:01,570 --> 00:26:06,450
and how to fix bugs you know the easiest
bugs the string bugs so is

384
00:26:06,450 --> 00:26:07,950
ellipses are a bit all have

385
00:26:08,340 --> 00:26:13,030
have to letters not there and that you
know string buttons thank you see on

386
00:26:13,030 --> 00:26:16,720
the screen so you i start fixing
string about it when it starts

387
00:26:17,090 --> 00:26:18,680
fixing string but i

388
00:26:19,330 --> 00:26:23,190
i noticed other about and i've read
a bit of cool so you know it'll

389
00:26:23,190 --> 00:26:24,300
start making sense

390
00:26:25,630 --> 00:26:28,850
you can fix usability bugs summer very easy

391
00:26:29,220 --> 00:26:32,980
and that's when i start getting acquainted
more with cold and i eventually made the

392
00:26:32,980 --> 00:26:39,230
jump to look some record and this is
this is all i mean the transition

393
00:26:39,230 --> 00:26:46,770
from a writing in english writing documentation
in english to courting and of all are

394
00:26:46,770 --> 00:26:49,750
and using the libraries

395
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,190
so you should be all been to new tasks

396
00:26:53,650 --> 00:26:58,430
and you know do you think's there is there
is already and now of instructions

397
00:26:58,430 --> 00:27:02,080
out that so try following get and
then you do it you succeed at it

398
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,030
break that down

399
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:08,940
okay in that's what happened with the norm dictionary
release i so i followed existing

400
00:27:08,940 --> 00:27:12,440
we keep features and then i did it
and i wrote it down so someone

401
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:17,240
else tomorrow of maybe wanting to literally
skin followed the same example and set the

402
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:17,850
ball rolling

403
00:27:21,110 --> 00:27:22,970
i'm just gonna hand this are working

404
00:27:24,780 --> 00:27:25,440
okay

405
00:27:27,930 --> 00:27:32,620
there are basically the result of those
you have what you call for against the

406
00:27:32,620 --> 00:27:35,890
community because it seems like a big you know

407
00:27:37,530 --> 00:27:37,850
you know

408
00:27:39,290 --> 00:27:43,360
just go i hope you people or

409
00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:45,100
that's the most important thing

410
00:27:46,340 --> 00:27:51,040
even if you think your questions
as you or you know so first for

411
00:27:51,650 --> 00:27:52,920
but you still you also just

412
00:27:53,630 --> 00:27:56,590
so okay well okay

413
00:27:57,110 --> 00:27:57,780
well have everything

414
00:27:58,910 --> 00:27:59,670
the emphasis

415
00:28:00,620 --> 00:28:06,600
people developers the advanced want things a very
specific way we want what sets people

416
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:07,350
apart right

417
00:28:08,500 --> 00:28:09,640
so ask us

418
00:28:10,010 --> 00:28:12,860
our sparse how you we wanted on and we will help

419
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:18,760
will help you put your bunched together make
sure that it's actually will be accepted

420
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,000
and will be accepted that they'll be happy

421
00:28:22,610 --> 00:28:28,060
but whatever you do don't be apathetic because
if you don't care about your patch

422
00:28:28,060 --> 00:28:29,120
it will get one

423
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,280
so you have to care about you really have to make sure like

424
00:28:33,530 --> 00:28:35,720
if you believe in something party

425
00:28:36,100 --> 00:28:36,880
it's fine

426
00:28:37,860 --> 00:28:42,260
and make sure that you get what he wants
somewhere other a that means adapting

427
00:28:42,260 --> 00:28:44,510
to the T not sure why not

428
00:28:45,100 --> 00:28:47,060
but if you want about fixed try to fix that

429
00:28:47,350 --> 00:28:48,200
just and about

430
00:28:51,570 --> 00:28:51,950
thank you

431
00:28:59,730 --> 00:29:00,840
does anyone have any quest

432
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:17,670
so before in the slides you guys say
that you will be you to write

433
00:29:17,670 --> 00:29:24,490
good commit messages i would like you to
explain to new people what any good

434
00:29:24,490 --> 00:29:25,730
can mean messages

435
00:29:27,430 --> 00:29:33,620
most projects most active projects have lots
that's a good message is where you can

436
00:29:33,940 --> 00:29:38,660
look at the smoke message of you can
read that fight so i thought that

437
00:29:38,660 --> 00:29:40,230
we will know what that dog

438
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,800
and if you actually look at the detail that

439
00:29:43,710 --> 00:29:44,820
just a description

440
00:29:45,590 --> 00:29:48,440
then you will be able to understand white system that way

441
00:29:49,630 --> 00:29:53,230
because otherwise like trying to maintain
something with methods to just like

442
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:55,130
say

443
00:29:55,650 --> 00:30:00,870
fixed dialogue is useless because and you
run the person comes looks and that does

444
00:30:00,870 --> 00:30:03,170
not understand what's going on just for about

445
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,210
so get detail

446
00:30:05,750 --> 00:30:11,050
but also be concise and precise use titles
i you commit titles which are short

447
00:30:11,050 --> 00:30:16,010
we wouldn't under fifty characters will and
if you need to give more detail than

448
00:30:16,010 --> 00:30:20,130
at the second paragraph with more
detail it the commit fixes a bug

449
00:30:20,970 --> 00:30:23,160
include about so the people have the right

450
00:30:23,830 --> 00:30:27,130
and the same goes public so it it's
a it but you fix the bottom

451
00:30:27,130 --> 00:30:27,810
but still

452
00:30:28,260 --> 00:30:31,900
say that the specs like to the can that's
the people actually all the top

453
00:30:31,900 --> 00:30:36,350
so they can look at the big about they
can be realised that connected it

454
00:30:36,350 --> 00:30:38,980
sometimes about have very long
discussion about why something

455
00:30:39,570 --> 00:30:43,950
but what i'm really useful to be
able to look to figure out that

456
00:30:56,020 --> 00:31:14,050
so a this in i me i gene if you
subscribe to page you should

457
00:31:14,050 --> 00:31:18,200
yes that all any changes that makes it and
everything there's a change made which

458
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,740
is not trivial you should get that
if occasion but yes i would use a

459
00:31:21,740 --> 00:31:27,710
but all their folder actually what it
will not be a buttons for to the

460
00:31:27,710 --> 00:31:31,810
people who are in charge of the team
that will work well actually just of

461
00:31:31,810 --> 00:31:35,080
the T they will tell you which them what
pages are for example the docking

462
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:39,020
station team has money page which has all the right
shot but actually interesting page

463
00:31:39,020 --> 00:31:40,870
to watch is that location helps take

464
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:42,810
which is have the way some

465
00:31:44,140 --> 00:31:52,830
i think so i think they have pages where
they what you like science fiction

466
00:31:52,830 --> 00:31:53,200
really

467
00:31:54,060 --> 00:31:56,790
so do actually a what

468
00:31:58,550 --> 00:32:02,570
i was actually looking more for you know
like your content like in what i

469
00:32:02,570 --> 00:32:05,730
mean we have had it's in a meeting
that we just put up and i

470
00:32:05,730 --> 00:32:08,140
don't know what quite to wayne that be justin

471
00:32:08,940 --> 00:32:14,210
what follows specific users and see what
changes do making that had there is that

472
00:32:23,470 --> 00:32:27,070
i just wanted to comment that there
is on the week is there is the

473
00:32:27,070 --> 00:32:31,670
week you don't know the to work slash recent
changes speech that you can get

474
00:32:31,670 --> 00:32:35,580
to from a like any page that there
is like a temperate and that's a

475
00:32:35,580 --> 00:32:40,350
great way to like which everybody's
activity that's actually there is

476
00:32:43,980 --> 00:32:44,310

i can't on you beginning an amazing job with
the degradation team with involves of

478
00:32:51,690 --> 00:32:56,000
