KodeStar: The blog post itself is mostly an edit of a reply/post on the forum, yes.

But it's neater to point people at a blog post than the Xth reply of some of some topic.
2016-05-16 13747, 2016

Well, that's entirely up to you to decide. :p
2016-05-16 13756, 2016

ruaok alastairp, FWIW, it seems like they're referring people back to the "federated open libraries" and asking people to "remember to contribute" to those.

I'm unable to create an account on the wiki (i.e. wiki.musicbrainz.org) The "Create your account" button is resulting in an alert asking for login credentials, which I don't have already.

Can a person with existing account only create a new one there?

rahulr, what browser?

Yes, Chrome.

I think Chrome works, but it doesn't tell you what to do.
2016-05-16 13750, 2016
CallerNo6
rahulr, try entering "NOTSPAM" for both fields.
2016-05-16 13701, 2016
chirlu
Exactly.
2016-05-16 13703, 2016

(at least, it works for me in Chromium)

ah, dang, did I miss a chance to give somebody a hard time? (like on construction sites, when you ask the new helper to go get a board stretcher)
2016-05-16 13744, 2016
rahulr
CallerNo6: Bingo! Thanks. But what's up with the workaround?
2016-05-16 13720, 2016
Freso
rahulr: Prevents spambots.
2016-05-16 13759, 2016
Freso is set up for tonight's meeting now 🙌
2016-05-16 13701, 2016
CallerNo6
rahulr, it's a makeshift spam-bot defense. For some reason, the alert window doesn't give the right message in Chrome/Chromium. In FF it tells you what to enter.
Seems Jenkins uses one shared database for the master and schema-change tests. The master failures are due to the PL/Perl function already having been dropped.
that's dark grey on white, literally the most common color combination on the internet :/

Spent some time reaching out to other communities (Mixxx, Quod Libet, VLC), which has resulted in a couple of non-profit sign-ups as well as MeB being listed on VLC's website: https://www.videolan.org/videolan/partners.html

And with that, I'll pass the word on to chrisskye:

> I’ve been suffering from a chest infection more than a week, so a bit sluggish. That said, managed to do a lot of correspondence. Lots of new sign-ups. A few are paying supporters, some non-profit and community orgs and numerous start-ups. Rob and I continue with the usual run-around trying to get service hook-ups to the new office and dealing with the new Spanish bank account. I’m off to

reosarevok: ;)

reosarevok
I dealt with support, including delegating some stuff to chrisskye (yay!)
2016-05-16 13724, 2016
reosarevok
And I got tired of not being able to set user emails when they didn't get our verification, so I wrote that code
2016-05-16 13738, 2016
reosarevok
It's in beta now, and I already had to use it once, so I'd say it was a success :p

Then I spent the second half of the week worrying about opening the museum I volunteer / intern at, which means https://community.metabrainz.org/t/2-in-1-release… still needs me to decide stuff which gah I'm sorry I'll get to it :(
2016-05-16 13759, 2016

(it's not very straightforward at all so I need to consider it carefully and I just haven't had enough peace and quiet to think about it)

LordSputnik was writing what I was going to say
2016-05-16 13705, 2016

apparently quickbooks never thought of having an invoice in USD and payment in EUR.
2016-05-16 13713, 2016
ruaok
that is going to be a real headache for me.
2016-05-16 13735, 2016

so, I spent way too much time on that. then zas appeared in town and we've been catching up.

Old and/or new?

we've discovered two particular problems. we've fixed them too, but we're still possibly battling some deployment issues.
2016-05-16 13745, 2016
ruaok
old.
2016-05-16 13706, 2016
ruaok
part of this is motivated by the fact that we need to move to NewHost soon.
2016-05-16 13721, 2016

and zas and I are looking at ways to try and reduce the time we spend in order to get to NewHost.

not going to the full SOLR route, but keeping the search servers might shorten the time to NewHost by a few weeks.
2016-05-16 13737, 2016
ruaok
but, there is hope for fixing the current search servers.
2016-05-16 13703, 2016

now we're focusing on the schema change release, which we had to postpone for a week... because reasons.

I don't think that any of us felt really comfortable with where we were.
2016-05-16 13753, 2016

so, rather than push and make life even more miserable for the jet-lagged bitmap, we decided to postpone it a week and make sure we get it right.

the plan now is to go to PG 9.5 tomorrow morning. and then the schema change release in a week.
