| This page is an informal guide on how to admin a SoK based on SoK 2022. There are some durations to help you know how much time it can take.
| | Moved to https://community.kde.org/SoK/Administer_the_SoK |
| | |
| = Preparation of the SoK =
| |
| * Gather admins (at least 2) and send a mail to KDE community <[email protected]> around 1 month before the event (something like https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-community/2021q4/007116.html) | |
| * Create https://community.kde.org/SoK ideas page for your year (copy the previous one, clean the ideas) (~1 hour)
| |
| Subscribe to https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-soc-management (~10 minutes)
| |
| * Ask admin access to https://season.kde.org/ to kde-soc-management mailing list (~1 hour to send a mail) and create a new season for your year (~1 hour)
| |
| * Make a MR to update the season of kde website ideas page in the introduction: https://invent.kde.org/websites/season-kde-org/-/commit/d6551083864241c34d4fc35807b84007f42915ed
| |
| * Update the timeline with something like: (~2 hours to count good)
| |
| T0: announcement date of SoK (mail of next step sent)
| |
| T1 = T0 + 1 month mentor/student applications deadline,
| |
| T2 = T1 + 1 week: announce the projects
| |
| T3 = T2 + 2 days: start of work
| |
| T4 = T3 + 3 months; end of work
| |
| T5 = T4 + 3 days: results announcements
| |
| T6 = T5 + 1 month: certificates issued + shipping of the swag/merchandise
| |
| | |
| * Send a mail to write the ideas in the wiki. Mail example (update the years): (~2 hours if you want to customize the mail)
| |
| ```

| Subject:
| |
| Season of KDE 2022 Ideas page skeleton is live
| |
| | |
| Body:
| |
| Hi,
| |
| The expected timeline can be found at https://season.kde.org/.
| |
| https://community.kde.org/SoK/Ideas/2022 is live, as a skeleton to write down your ideas.
| |
| If you are adding an idea, please remember to put your own contact information in the
| |
| description as the mentor. Do not add Ideas with no mentor and contact
| |
| info.
| |
| | |
| Remember that SoK is more general than GSoC, so these ideas are
| |
| not limited only to coding tasks and you can include projects related to
| |
| documentation, artwork, translation, reports and other types of work as
| |
| well as code.
| |
| | |
| Cheers,
| |
| | |
| SoK Admin team
| |

| |
| | |
| * Ask Promo (https://webchat.kde.org/*/room/*kde-promo:kde.org) to promote the event! (~ 2 hours to write the article). Something like https://dot.kde.org/2017/11/19/announcing-season-kde-2018 and https://dot.kde.org/2019/11/29/announcing-season-kde-2020.
| |
| | |
| * Send a mail to all potential students to enter their application with the subject: "The students are supposed to create the project themselves after contacting their potential mentors and discussing with them. Generally we also expect from the student to write a bigger text than the one in the idea page."
| |
| | |
| * Send a kind reminder two weeks before the deadline. (~ 2 hours to write the article)
| |
| | |
| * It is up to the students to create the project themselves after contacting their potential mentors and discussing with them. Generally we also expect from the student to write a bigger text than the one in the idea page." to the season.kde.org website
| |
| | |
| * Go to the mentor application page from time to time to approve mentors only if they are listed on the SoK ideas list or if you are sure they are "long-term" contributors (do not accept anyone if you are not sure they are a mentor)
| |
| | |
| * Don't assign mentors to a project, it is up to the mentors to do it.
| |
| | |
| = Once applications deadline is passed =
| |
| * Ask mentors to mentor for the projects they are willing to mentor.
| |
| | |
| = The day before the acceptation of the projects =
| |
| * Accept the proposals which have mentors.
| |
| | |
| = The day of accepted projects =
| |
| * Create the status report page for this year: https://community.kde.org/SoK/2022/StatusReport
| |
| | |
| * send a welcome mail including to ask for reports from students : https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-soc/2021-February/001585.html (previous link) + article on dot.kde.org with selected projects
| |
| | |
| = After the SoK =
| |
| * Create the certificates for each student: https://invent.kde.org/apol/sok-certificates
| |
| | |
| * Usually, we go with http://freewear.org/ (mail: [email protected]) for customising the goodies. Feel free to contact the (VDG)[[email protected]] if you need help with the design! | |
| | |
| With the KDE e.V., discuss the budget for the SoK goodies to be sure we ask a quotation that fits.
| |
| | |
| - Gather information for every student who wants to get the swag. Namely:
| |
| * Project name
| |
| * Real name
| |
| * email
| |
| * Phone number
| |
| * Postal Address
| |
| * T-Shirt size and fit
| |
| | |
| * Write a blog post about the different projects and their status
| |
| | |
| = FAQ =
| |
| * Is there a hardcoded limit for postuling, editing proposals...?
| |
| -> Nothing limits anything in the code but it is better to stick to the deadlines.
| |
| | |
| * What's the difference between "Accepted" and "Mentors"?
| |
| -> Mentors need to put themselves as mentors before the announcement of the selected projects. The project will be accepted when it is announced.
