Funnily enough, it was CatQuest who found the issue we patched with jsesc, and then CatQuest who found the issues with jsesc :D Who needs unit tests? :P
CatQuest: taken you off "Add 5 books..." as you requested :)

i guess GCI will help out with the beta testing for BB :)
2017-12-01 33548, 2017
LordSputnik
SothoTalKer: just a bit. So far 46 new editors in 2 days
2017-12-01 33557, 2017

(at least)

are there any documentation tasks for BB? :)
2017-12-01 33532, 2017
arthelon[m]
method docs yeah but we could also use some higher level doc tasks
2017-12-01 33525, 2017
LordSputnik
arthelon[m]: problem with high level doc tasks is they require a greater level of familiarity with the project, I think
2017-12-01 33530, 2017
LordSputnik
They may be too challenging for GCI
2017-12-01 33538, 2017
arthelon[m]
yup
2017-12-01 33552, 2017
LordSputnik
(actually, number of new editors since the start of GCI is closer to 80, which is over 10% of the total editor count)
2017-12-01 33500, 2017
arthelon[m]
we can split our ideas for docs into smaller tasks though (i.e. write instructions and common errors for installing postgres on different environments)
2017-12-01 33508, 2017
arthelon[m]
patch should be done soon

naiveaiguy: if you know any JavaScript, there's also a BB task about removing duplication
2017-12-01 33521, 2017
naiveaiguy
LordSputnik: yeah, but I'm planning to finish off 3-4 LB tasks before I move to BB/whipper
2017-12-01 33544, 2017

also, javascript is a pain to work with :P

LordSputnik: do you guys have a policy on third-party libs? what factors should I consider before including one?
2017-12-01 33504, 2017
LordSputnik
For BB, or MetaBrainz in general?
2017-12-01 33520, 2017
naiveaiguy
For LB
2017-12-01 33532, 2017
naiveaiguy
or even MB in general really
2017-12-01 33549, 2017
naiveaiguy
I have a habit of including third party stuff all willy-nilly but I know I can't do that here
2017-12-01 33535, 2017
LordSputnik
I don't know for sure about that I'm afraid, but I'd guess don't add unnecessary dependencies is probably the answer
2017-12-01 33551, 2017
LordSputnik
If it's a really tiny thing you want to do, don't throw a huge library at it
2017-12-01 33551, 2017
naiveaiguy
hmm
2017-12-01 33517, 2017
LordSputnik
If it's something complex that has the potential for lots of bugs, and there's a well tested python library designed exactly to do what you're looking for, do use that :)
2017-12-01 33500, 2017
naiveaiguy
LordSputnik: in this case it's pretty simple, so I might as well just create a small class for it on my own.

naiveaiguy: when sending the PR, mention "this could alternatively use library X" and they can tell you if they'd rather you used that I guess? :)
