fin.

If you need graphical help, gcilou might want to provide that. :)

And thanks!

armalcolite: Go!

This week was mostly dealing with the reviews on the postgres PR

Changing a lot of stuff as per review and then fixing broken bits.

A lot of bits here and there, but finally it is taking good shape.

It won't stay open for long. :D

I think we're getting close, yes. :)

Got sentry access for LB.

(UI is quite pretty :))

ruaok: yes!

That's it.

ruaok: for after the meeting, but I'll forget otherwise: I imagine you can answer https://community.metabrainz.org/t/help-compili... - I know I can't

Thanks armalcolite :)

hellska doesn't seem to be around.

kartikgupta0909: Go!

Fixed the debian sources for Gaia

built the deb packages

And the dependency ppa for the dataset evaluation tool is ready

That's it

Thanks kartikgupta0909 :)

cetko: Go!

I think I've got it but I've just gotten access to a server and acousticbrainz data that I need to upload to test the efficiency of typical queries

That's about it, stay tuned

and I'm thinking of buying the eldritch horror board game

cetko: if you do, let me know how it goes! I'm too dumb for Arkham Horror but I've read this is simpler to play :p

will do :)

cetko out

Freso: prod

Freso: prod prod

Yep, sorry. Was just sending off a friendly e-mail. :)

Freso: Pythonic block of SOLR

CJ_ has stated that his SOLR work is currently blocked by not being proficient/familiar enough with Python, so if any Pythonistas are around who would like to help see the state of SOLR improve, please go poke at tickets in https://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/SOLR and/or ping CJ_ when he's around.

Freso: Affiliate tagger program

This is mostly for ruaok and chrisskye I guess, but we still have https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Tagger_Affiliate_Pr...

yes, and?

And I mostly want to know whether that's a program we're going to keep or if we're going to try and phase it out.

(It's been discussed a few times, and I haven't been able to answer.)

it still brings ~300€/month.

so, I'm not not inclined to get rid of it. if both of the projects that are in the program die out we can kill it. but in the meantime I see no reason to fix something that isn't broken

ruaok: But that could maybe be moved to the metabrainz.org system(?). Do we accept new applicants to it?

Can we enroll Picard in it so Picard gets listed in the same places as the affiliate program taggers do?

is picard suffering from a lack of exposure?

I think that was the conclusion in one discussion at least.

Can we keep those that are grandfathered in, but not accept new taggers?

picard is not in the tagger program.

My understanding is that there may be little/no demand for new entries into the program...

so, lets not put it in there. let's just highlight in more clearly on the new site design that gcilou is working on

correct, this program is on the way out since people do not really care about their music collections anymore.

ruaok: I think one of things that is missing is a link from e.g., https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Tagger_Affiliate_Pr...

not the way they used to. thanks for spotify et al

I have no issue offering a new tagger the option of the old or new support model

I'd say for now, no change, but highlight Picard on our home page.

Okay.

Freso: Summit 16

So we've finally decided on dates and place for MB Summit 16!

Freso's house!

Details at https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/MusicBrainz_Summit/16 - but for those who don't want to click stuff: dates: Sept. 22nd-24th in Barcelona (hopefully at the office (which is apparently going to be my new house to - the more you know!), if it's gotten power by then).

*too

So, yeah, if you're coming, go to https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/MusicBrainz_Summit/16 and add yourself to the Attendees table. :)

(And probably Watch the page as well so you're in the loop about changes.)

Freso: "DR": MBS-5168

It should probably just be closed now that we have inline JSON-LD, no?

wiki, discourse and jira are all loading slowly for me..

don't see any reason to close it tbh

If bitmap says "don't close", that's good enough for me.

unless it isnt much work to do, I'm inclined to close it.

aight, close it then

keep it open.

I dont have a strong feeling either way

heh

leave it open then

Alrighty!

onward or close.

freso is asleep.

Thanks for your time everyone!

\ø/

</BANG>

ruaok: Why do you say I'm asleep when I just wrote something?

ruaok: when do you leave to Italy already ?

because I have this mental image of you being asleep after being such a time nazi in the first half of the meeting. :)

wednesday am

tomorrow I need to do PRs with alastairp and accounting.

for the list of "stuff I have no idea what to say about", but this time probably for bitmap: https://community.metabrainz.org/t/trying-to-av...

alastairp from accounting

oh, good, alastairp, I have some questions for you.

did someone find that spam in forums?

multi currency issues. :)

ruaok: OK, shoot, but I really don't have a lot of time. I shouldn't be slacking off here

oh

how do you receive a payment from a USD vendor in EUR?

wait

LOL

I see what you did there

:-D

:( so tired

me too. I'm going to bed soon. day not done, but bed.

I have to write 2 pages of junk before I go to bed

reosarevok: I'll try to respond tomorrow

it's OK, at least it's only junk, and not, you know, a paper or something

oh, wait

Thanks!

hi there

hey!

i'm trying to deploy the search server on a CentOS 7.2 VM

got to the step to build the search server code with "mvn package"

but it's failing

thanks

going to check that right now

"I hope, however, that the MB team has plans to move away from physical servers at some point."

Uhm. So. What kind of servers aren't physical?

"The cloud is just someone else's computer"...

uninformed.

the postgres team insists to run PG on bare metal.

and why would want to sped MORE money than we have to?

if they want to make up the extra $1000 or two for us to move to the cloud, I'd be happy to move to the cloud.

You should reply that. :)

@ruaok: checked the link but I'm already up-to-date on mmd-schema

:(

that is the problem. you do not want to be up to date on mmd-schema.

you need to check out the hash I posted there.

oh oh

sorry

thanks @ruaok, back on track :)

np

QuoraUK: http://chatlogs.metabrainz.org/brainzbot/metabr...

^ new dump

awesome thanks

ruaok: is it safe to ignore this warning while building the search-server: "'build.plugins.plugin.version' for org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin is missing. @ line 113, column 12"

i get like 5 other warnings like that for other plugins

i also tried to install the plugins using centos package manager but I keep getting the warnings no matter what

what matters is BUILD SUCCESS or BUILD FAILURE in the end.

brilliant

thanks!

success in this case

on both mmd-schema and search-server?
