Can someone plz review my task (GCI-148) GCI id: PiecesofTangram

87

Just be patient you will get a feedback in a short while.

88

Ok thnx for the advice

89

Need some help. I can not claim or open the task no. GCI-272. Its essential to complete further tasks. Plz help or provide advice to troubleshoot this problem.

90

There is a lot of probably reasons why you canā€™t claim the task you want. You might:

  • have already assigned another task to you (itā€™s possible to work at only one at a time),
  • the limit of students who can work at the task simultaneously is reached (the limit is individual for every task, so there are tasks on which only one student can work at a time, while on others the limit is higher),
  • the task was removed (you are using a bookmarked link to a task which is not existing anymore).

cheers

Hello everyone!!! Iā€™m Jubel Kurian :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I am very excited and to join you this year.

when i signed up for taking part in GCI 2018, The first thing i did was to look up at all the participating organisations. And Open MRS was the one which grabbed my attention the most .Ihave been like very keen to know more about how such an idea/concept has been implemented for the worldā€™s good as an organisation!! WOW:AMAZING!! Actually i had lloked upto your website eralier also.

For some school project, i was looking up on the net that how can IT and open sourcing come into help of disaster management and medical documentation. Then I stubled upon http://devmanual.openmrs.org/en/Kick_off/solving_the_health_it_challenges_our_responsemd.html

This opened up my interests for knowing more about this and how me as a student can help you.:grinning: This year i feel priviledged to take part in GCI 2018 and take part in completing such engaging, compelling and exciting tasks of yours.

Last year indeed i had taken part in GCI and i had done various tasks for organisations like drupal fossasia, liquid galaxy, osgeo, wikimedia metabrainz, etc. but it was my first time and i could only do few tasks as i got to know about this just 15 days before GCI 2017 was to end!!!:disappointed_relieved:

but this year i tried grabbing this opportunity from starting and being engaged with such an awesome organisation like youā€¦ #feeling priviledged :star_struck: By beeing a part of Open MRS, i would like to contribute more for the betterment of humanity, also get to interact and know more about different community members, mentors and share various ideas together!

92

We are glad you are back to GCI and openmrs community may your dream come to pass. We wish you lack as a community.

Hi,

  1. I like the systems that do collect patient level information that are also open source and sustainable
  2. I havenā€™t participated in GCI before.
  3. I hope we can all collaborate fruitfully together to better maintain and improve OpenMRS

Hey, Iā€™m Ryan, and Iā€™m really excited to join OpenMRS this year.

I chose OpenMRS because of how innovative it is and how it combines my two fields of interests: medicine, and computer science. I find it really cool to be able to work on a project that helps with delivering health care to developing countries. An interesting fact that I found about OpenMRS is that it has been used to collect data for HIV patients in Africa. I havenā€™t yet participated in Google Code-in, but Iā€™m excited to do so for the first time! I hope Iā€™ll meet cool people and learn as I contribute to open source tasks!

  1. I join Google Code-in this year because I want to gain new experience in programming. Prizes are not really important compared to experience and knowledge.

  2. No, I did not. This year is the first time for me to join this program

  3. I hope I can gain a lot of precious knowledge and experience from OpenMRS. This is because mentors are totally great and coolšŸ˜Š
