We have a snowy winter this semester. Irrespective of that, RCOS is going on strong. The mentors are meeting with individual groups on Tuesday. Hopefully the projects wil get closer attention and hence a greater output.
On Friday, we had three presentations:
1) Jesse Frietas- Designing Software Around Your Audience
2) Moorthy - Suggestions for making you and RCOS famous
3) Forest Crossman - Open Source Licenses
Jesse taked about the customers for whom the software is designed - How one should be willing to broaden the customer base. He also shared his expereince with his homework serever project.
I talked about the concerns the department and the recruiters have. I cajoed them to work hard and learn as many new things as possible. With the new mentorship, I do hope that the students will be given a close attention.
FOrest talked about the different OSI licenses. He mentioned the advantages and the disadvantages of each of the licenses. Hope he posts his slides soon.
Lead mentors (Aaron, Seve and Roibert) suggested a homework on git where in they have to add a project and the members in that project. Most of the students seem to have done - https://github.com/rcos/rcos-projects/tree/master/projects
