(oh noes, I have to review half a million relationship types so they'll make sense)

reosarevok: er, why did you link to a random edit of mine?
2015-11-05 30920, 2015
reosarevok
It was the first result in the search :)
2015-11-05 30927, 2015
reosarevok
It now says "Recording was recorded at Event"
2015-11-05 30939, 2015
reosarevok
Instead of the annoying "Event was the recording location for Recording"
2015-11-05 30950, 2015
JesseW
Ah -- yes, that's much better!

btw, any chance of movement on my ticket to get "dance caller" added as a vocal type? :-)
2015-11-05 30920, 2015
reosarevok
er
2015-11-05 30944, 2015
reosarevok
nikki wrote some code a while ago to be able to change the ordering but I somehow missed it and only started checking those now :)
2015-11-05 30909, 2015
reosarevok
Possibly :p I have a ton of school stuff this week and I'm working on instruments and rels too

We're supposed to get Discourse installed soon(TM)
2015-11-05 30934, 2015
reosarevok
So I'm kinda waiting on style issues so that we can hopefully have proper discussions about them and all
2015-11-05 30937, 2015
JesseW
hm. not sure how I feel about Discourse.
2015-11-05 30951, 2015
reosarevok
Well it allows things like polls where every MB editor can vote
2015-11-05 30903, 2015
reosarevok
Which should be good for getting style feedback from more than the usual suspects
2015-11-05 30908, 2015
JesseW
that does seem useful, yes
2015-11-05 30910, 2015
reosarevok
Other than that I haven't played with it much
2015-11-05 30933, 2015
JesseW is pushing on the "dance caller" thing because it would save me a bunch of typing... :-)
2015-11-05 30951, 2015
reosarevok
But yeah, ideally that'll help with things where I'm now like "huh I know what these three people want, but is someone going to be angry with this who isn't in style?"
2015-11-05 30920, 2015
reosarevok
(and one of the discussions I really want to have is "wtf do we do with vocals")
2015-11-05 30935, 2015
reosarevok
(Ideally we'd merge it with instruments in some larger tree, but we'll see)
2015-11-05 30903, 2015
reosarevok
Anyway, I'm in school now and supposed to be learning to query APIs :p But I'll be looking into as much stuff as possible as soon as possible :)
2015-11-05 30907, 2015
JesseW
nods, makes sense.
2015-11-05 30919, 2015
JesseW
querying APIs can be fun. :-)
2015-11-05 30936, 2015
reosarevok
I need to choose one to query, any fun ones to suggest? :P
2015-11-05 30938, 2015
reosarevok
(MB is done)
2015-11-05 30903, 2015
reosarevok
One of the main points of merging vocals with instruments would be to be able to add an instrumentation relationship, which I've wanted forever
2015-11-05 30908, 2015
reosarevok
(and I know I'm not the only one)
2015-11-05 30920, 2015
reosarevok
Also one to link artists to the "instrument" they play
2015-11-05 30938, 2015
reosarevok
But we'll see :)
2015-11-05 30930, 2015
reosarevok
But yeah, being able to query for piano works or stuff like that, and for pianists, would be pretty neat.
2015-11-05 30948, 2015
JesseW
I can't see any reason *not* to merge vocals with instruments...
2015-11-05 30915, 2015
reosarevok
Well, someone might be like "but they're not instruments!" :p
2015-11-05 30919, 2015
reosarevok
But generally I agree
2015-11-05 30928, 2015
reosarevok
Possibly also "orchestra"
2015-11-05 30935, 2015
reosarevok
(which would also help with instrumentation...)
2015-11-05 30945, 2015
reosarevok
(and it being its own rel has always been a bit strange)
2015-11-05 30939, 2015
JesseW
re: "they're not instruments" -- many voice teachers would disagree. :-)
2015-11-05 30928, 2015
reosarevok
Haha, so would I to be honest - but that's a large enough change in general that I want to run it by people and not just be like "that's it we're changing it all because I want to"
2015-11-05 30950, 2015
reosarevok
(although given it's more of a change in how we technically do this, it might actually be more of a dev discussion than style in a way, but)
2015-11-05 30953, 2015
JesseW
that certainly makes sense
2015-11-05 30907, 2015
JesseW
well, if someone wanted to write enough code to allow changing how vocals are stored will still leaving the existing UI, then it might just be a dev discussion -- but changing the UI should certainly get wider consensus
2015-11-05 30913, 2015
reosarevok
I should have brought it up at the summit but I was too distracted by our ridiculous amounts of gelato and chocolate I guess
2015-11-05 30900, 2015
reosarevok
Whatever, we got enough things done at the summit anyway :)
2015-11-05 30923, 2015
JesseW has quit
2015-11-05 30901, 2015

reosarevok: yeah, probably a good idea to create a ticket
2015-11-05 30917, 2015
reosarevok
Ok, will do :)

reosarevok wonders if Jira will also move to metabrainz.org
2015-11-05 30947, 2015

It hasn't been just MB for a while now :)

Is here the rigt place to get fast help for musicbrainz VM ?
2015-11-05 30953, 2015
reosarevok
Yes, yes it is. ruaok who deals with this usually isn't here but hopefully someone else knows what you need
