yvanzo, bitmap, reosarevok: if i set a large offset for a search request, will there be any difference in the response to detect that no more items are available or should i parse the json to check for empty list

_lucifer: there is no difference but the list

ruaok: Apple is being annoying again :( Code signing suddenly fails with "You must first sign the relevant contracts online."

Could you take a look at the Apple account? Not sure what contracts have been added or updated, but I guess it would show somewhere
ruaok: all the mappings except the recent one has text fields prefixed with `msb`. It is `mb` in the recent one. Don't we have any tests for the mappings to avoid this conundrum of names. I will prefer using `msb` since the codebase uses that.

the prefix denotes the source of the data.
2020-07-14 19652, 2020

but why it was changed in the recent mapping to mb?
2020-07-14 19628, 2020
pristine___
all the previous mappings use `msb`
2020-07-14 19646, 2020
ruaok
because the fields in the mapping that originally came from msb were not useful.
2020-07-14 19651, 2020
pristine___
and the codebase was updated to use msb.
2020-07-14 19610, 2020
ruaok
if you wanted to use the mapping and look up data, you got MSB data. but most people want MB data, so they would need to do another lookup.
2020-07-14 19641, 2020
ruaok
remember the point of the mapping is that once the data is passed through the mapping, we no longer use MSB data, but only MB data.
2020-07-14 19650, 2020
pristine___
that means i will have to update mb everywhere
2020-07-14 19653, 2020

I get that
2020-07-14 19632, 2020

is that a lot of work?
2020-07-14 19654, 2020

I hope there aren't a lot of changes in the filed names in future :p

gotta take care of something for outsidecontext first.

btw. languages. what id you don't know what language it is?
2020-07-14 19619, 2020

like especialy names cna be severla languages
2020-07-14 19651, 2020

and if someone .fex has a italian last name with a german (or norwegina ,or swedish or..) first name? thne what
2020-07-14 19609, 2020
CatQuest
for titles I guess. but I stil ldon't really buy the "language of the contence of the book =/= language of the title of the book" thing. nor that the language of the titl is so important to be mandatory while contence language (wich, is much easier ot discern really) isn't
2020-07-14 19603, 2020
CatQuest
here is an exapmle: a person called Marie Louise Portmann what language is this?

she apparently wrote a (modern)german translation of physica (hildegard's) but how do i know that her name(that she is) german?
2020-07-14 19655, 2020
CatQuest
does it matter if she is gemrna but her name isn't?
2020-07-14 19600, 2020

is her name german?

I agree the whole language thing doesn't make sense for authors

\o/ thank you!

Implementation of that change is going to be a whole other story, though…

I presume that together with all the other language-list improvememts like shortening it, putting comon ones at tope etc
2020-07-14 19654, 2020

I'll improve the ticket i created for it too

I'm also working on a document to see what "attributes" are useful for us. i mena on relationships
2020-07-14 19659, 2020
CatQuest
one thing. like here I am infront of me I have a work that contains "translated excerpts" from another work"
2020-07-14 19620, 2020
CatQuest
this seems like "translated" would be an attribute there...
2020-07-14 19648, 2020
CatQuest
or should the "translation" work-work rel have a ""prtial" atribute? instead
2020-07-14 19606, 2020
CatQuest
my first instinct is the former
2020-07-14 19627, 2020
CatQuest
but that also becoems a problem becasue is a translation als oan adaptation?
2020-07-14 19643, 2020
CatQuest
what if something was translated *and* adapted?
2020-07-14 19600, 2020
CatQuest
aren't all translations adaptations?
2020-07-14 19620, 2020
CatQuest
should "translated" work-work just be an attribute on "derivation"
2020-07-14 19636, 2020
CatQuest
(artist-work is another story. and it makes sense there)
