GSoC Projects: Categorized and Tagged

[Alexander Pico]

In an attempt to organize all of the GSoC projects, I put them into
Delicious, a social bookmarking site. Mentoring organizations are tagged by
category and programming language.

http://delicious.com/gsoc2009

If you're not familiar with Delicious, you'll find the list of tags in the
right sidebar. Click on a tag and the list of organization in the main body
of the page is filtered. Select on a related tag to drilldown further.

For example, here are organizations with projects using Python:
http://delicious.com/gsoc2009/Python

We are still in the process of tagging, so revisit often!

Ah! And if you have delicious account (it's free to join), you can save the
bookmarks into your own collection, to help you organize and keep track of
projects you are interested in.

That really awesome...

awesome idea, thanks for your work! That's so much easier to get an
overview of the accepted orgs...

So I figure the tags cannot be edited by the public? At least I don't
see an edit option, even after signing in.

I would like to see MacPorts getting tagged with package_management, Tcl
and C, but I don't see any way to do this.

Thanks in advance,
Rainer

You'll find the login info on the mentor mailing list and, yes, you
can edit: that was the whole point :)

Email me off list if you need help.

Hi,

Just to say thanks for this :) . It makes searching a lot quicker.

[Manan Shah]

Great work guys...

[Robby O'Connor]

OpenMRS is absent... it should be categorized under Java, HTML, and
Javascript.

Nope. It's been there since the beginning (~1AM on 3/19). I added the
programming language tags for you. But please note that all org admins and
mentors have access to the delicious account allowing them to update their
own tags at any time.

Excellent idea, and I think it should be continued!

So, to keep using this list I think several new tags should be added. All projects from current list can be marked with “2009” tag, and those accepted for GSoC 2010 with “2010”. And one more thing, those projects, which will participate in 2010 and are not in the current list, can be mark with something like “2010_new” (this is done for people who already explored projects from current list).

What do you think about this?

Best regards,
Yaroslav Porshnev.

I'll let the Melange developer team confirm this but, afaik we have added support for accepted organizations to tag their projects in the system and for them to add their own tags to our pre-set list, which was derived from Alex Pico's hard work.

Thanks again Alex.

Cheers,

Yes, organizations can tag themselves this year and users can search
on tags (afaik only one tag at the time at the moment but that is
being fixed). These tags will appear on a page very similar to [0]
from GSoC2009 (if you look closely you can see an empty tags
column :P).
