        And for discussion, we can use IRC :)

        BenOckmore: That whole writeToDisk was basically a hack that theoretically shouldn't be needed. I tried removing it completely and it seems to work on Webpack 5 for me. Will check again in case I missed something.

        Yes, I can confirm the HMR middleware is working fine without the need to write the files. It's the same reason we don't need that `WriteAssetsWebpackPlugin` anymore.

        reosarevok: I don't want to move the discussions. Just open up something on GitHub, as well. Is there a danger to using GH discussions?

      • BinyaminGreen[m]
        meaning, opening up discussions on github, with the intent that this is just for passersby.

        • 2021-01-18 01834, 2021

      • reosarevok
        Generally, having discussions in several places means many people only ever see half of it :)

        • 2021-01-18 01843, 2021

      • reosarevok
        That's the main worry

        • 2021-01-18 01803, 2021

      • reosarevok
        (we used to have forums and mailing lists, for example, and ended up in a situation where we had "forum people" and "list people")

        • 2021-01-18 01817, 2021

      • reosarevok
        (for MusicBrainz, that is, BookBrainz never had mailing lists)

        • 2021-01-18 01814, 2021

      • BinyaminGreen[m]
        Oh, wait! You can customize the issues tab. I think you can make it so that you can only click on external links. That would make me very happy.

        • 2021-01-18 01840, 2021

      • reosarevok
        For discussion we have IRC for live talk and https://community.metabrainz.org/ for forum stuff :)

        • 2021-01-18 01850, 2021

      • reosarevok
        (that one does require an account, but it's the same account as BB itself, so)

        • 2021-01-18 01804, 2021

      • BinyaminGreen[m]
        I meant that you wouldn't be able to open an actual issue.

        • 2021-01-18 01820, 2021

      • reosarevok
        Oh, so just saying "Hi! To report issues, please go to our Jira tracker (link). You can log in with your Github account there!" ? :)

        • 2021-01-18 01841, 2021

      • BinyaminGreen[m]
        Yep. https://github.com/b3u/issues-testing/

      • shivam-kapila
        this looks good

        • 2021-01-18 01830, 2021

      • BinyaminGreen[m]
        it still works if you go directly to "/issues/new", but a GitHub action could deal with that. Lock them, direct the user to Jira, etc.

        • 2021-01-18 01857, 2021

      • BinyaminGreen[m]
        go to https://github.com/b3u/issues-testing/issues/new/, and try to open an issue

        • 2021-01-18 01803, 2021

      • Mr_Monkey
        BinyaminGreen[m]: I'm not sure exactly what that achieves, other than creating another discussion medium. Coudl you explain the benefits you see with having those auto-closing issues?

        • 2021-01-18 01804, 2021

      • Mr_Monkey
        There is a link in the readme pointing to the jira issue tracker; maybe if that link was much more visible and at the top it would make it clearer that issues are tracked through jira?

        • 2021-01-18 01819, 2021

      • yvanzo
        BinyaminGreen[m]: Last time I looked at it (a long time ago), it was not possible to redirect the issues to an external tracker. I think we would be happy to make clearer that issues can be openly created/read/self-assigned through the Issues tab even though it is already documented in most README files (as Mr_Monkey just mentioned).

        • 2021-01-18 01826, 2021

      • Mr_Monkey
        I think it can definitely be made a lot clearer. I'll touch up the project readme accordingly, at the very least
