we discussed some possible ways of gamification over a year ago

ruaok: Thank you very much. You've pretty much anwered my questions :)

Leo_Verto: I was thinking of some application in QT that would show you what it pulled from databases and let you compare them and choose the best.
2016-01-26 02646, 2016
Leo_Verto
that sounds like a great idea
2016-01-26 02655, 2016

Leo_Verto: Not a user script
2016-01-26 02606, 2016
stanislas
Leo_Verto: It would require only one database.
2016-01-26 02622, 2016
Leo_Verto
and directly use the ws, I assume?
2016-01-26 02626, 2016
stanislas
yes
2016-01-26 02635, 2016
stanislas
I even know how to do that.
2016-01-26 02617, 2016
stanislas
I've been working with it for like 2 or 3 weeks.
2016-01-26 02653, 2016
stanislas
It would made identifiers also more usable.
2016-01-26 02602, 2016
stanislas
And if you want some library to be added you would just write the code that regards it and not the whole user script.
2016-01-26 02602, 2016
Leo_Verto
hmm, we'd have to look into how to generate oauth tokens for that
2016-01-26 02606, 2016
stanislas
That shouldn't be a big problem, should it ? I will ask other BB contributors what they think about this idea.
2016-01-26 02602, 2016
Leo_Verto
No, we just haven't had to handle that yet since the site is currently the only BB client available
2016-01-26 02628, 2016
stanislas
Ok. I am glad.
2016-01-26 02602, 2016
Leo_Verto
The reason we were thinking of a userscript was that no one wanted to write an entire application :P
2016-01-26 02646, 2016
stanislas
I'd have no problem with writing it. I am much more advanced in desktop application writing than in html or javascriprt
2016-01-26 02613, 2016
Leo_Verto
I think Qt's a great choice btw
2016-01-26 02645, 2016
stanislas
I know also Tkinter and JavaFX, but Qt is better :)
2016-01-26 02653, 2016
stanislas
JavaFX has better docs
2016-01-26 02657, 2016
Leo_Verto
Best framework for applications running in KDE :P
2016-01-26 02628, 2016
Leo_Verto
Tkinter seems like a bad choice for anything that's not just a basic input form
2016-01-26 02630, 2016
stanislas
But JavaFX is Java and I don't like Java. I will stick with PyQt
2016-01-26 02608, 2016
stanislas
And I don't see Java used in any MeB projects.

stanislas, the search server is java fwiw
2016-01-26 02650, 2016

hehe

(which doesn't nullify your point)
2016-01-26 02648, 2016
stanislas
But I don't care really about how fast it is, it would be mostly requests that take time
2016-01-26 02623, 2016
stanislas
and python is simpler
2016-01-26 02615, 2016
Leo_Verto
well, you can make python a lot faster using a JIT compiler

Gentlecat, so I believe that I fast-forwarded everything correctly, but now the PR has all the project page information in it, which should already be in metabrainz master..
2016-01-26 02620, 2016

gcilou: look at the tree, see if everything is correct
2016-01-26 02638, 2016
gcilou
Gentlecat, everything looks fine to me
2016-01-26 02623, 2016

Gentlecat, aha I fixed it, no more project files in the PR, and no more merge conflicts :)

I am now planning what to do with this application. But in a couple of weeks there is an olympiad I am attending and I need to prepare for it so I will not be doing much for that time.
