#metabrainz

So Zulu time, not Zero. :)

TIL :p

It's out?

Cool we're in Gsoc :D

yay!! :D

samj1912: https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/organizatio... :)

"MetaBrainz operates the MusicBrainz", eh? :)

I assume that's supposed to be parsed like "MetaBrainz operates the MusicBrainz (and a number of related open data) projects", but it's really awkward

Freso: /join #musicbrainz

fk

maybe it should read "companies" instead of "company" in the Freso link :D

can u still change it?

Lots of new orgs this time round

[musicbrainz-server] y-van-z opened pull request #477: Fix running tests in browser (master...fix-tests-for-browser) https://git.io/vyLoR

Given a CDDB id, can I look up a release in MB? Or do I need the full CD TOC? (Did it used to be possible, but is no more due to loss of freedb indexes?)

samj1912: some are already here, eh? :)

zas bitmap, would it make sense to change https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Development/XML_Web... to be https:// ?

sure

+1

Quesito: Hey :) Sigita came across http://youreshape.io/reshape17/ and was wondering whether it was something you're participating in?

and i thought it's something about body format =X

SothoTalKer: ;)

:-)

Freso: I was a juror last year. It is purely a $ competition and has no further value, educational or otherwise (all IP goes to the organizer). After last year, I have no further wish to participate with the organization (this is the polite short answer). ;)

Quesito: Alright. I've forwarded your answer to her. :)

If she has any questions--please have her email me!

But there are much more worthwhile conferences/exhibitions, etc

:)

legoktm: I think https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-serve... was what you asked about re: the transclusion stuff?

Ah.

https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-serve... is probably the culprit.

Forcing http://

:/

So that's why there are no API requests showing in the wiki log, because HTTP requests now get rejected before they make it to the PHP.

So either DBDefs should take the protocal as well, or WikiDocIndex.pm:101 should refer to https...

reosarevok: https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-9263

MBS-9263: Transclusion Table on MB.o is broken

zas: ^ also. Not sure if just changing the redirect type would work.

I would expect nobody really has set up, but...

Maybe something to ask on the meeting?

reosarevok: I'll try and mention it during my review. Not sure it needs a whole topic for itself, at least not until bitmap has had a chance to look and comment on it.

this one goes out to ruaok. https://twitter.com/JasonWilliamsNY/status/8362...

sampsyo: Ever got a chance to poke at https://github.com/alastair/python-musicbrainzn... ?

ruaok: https://chatlogs.metabrainz.org/brainzbot/metab... just saw this, and yeah, uni will probably take up a lot of time for a while, but that doesn't start till August!

Freso: https://chatlogs.metabrainz.org/brainzbot/metab... I'll take a look :)

i won't be attending the meeting tonight :)

ruaok: Any chance we can get/have a user admin mail(list) that I can CC in replies or forward to for dealing with reports?

<BANG>

Hello.

hi :)

ferbncode: Go ;D

hey

ok

This week I worked on the two PRs I sent last week for getting them merged. And started work with one more migrating :P. Nothing much due to exams :D

fin!

Freso: reports, like when a user is reported?

ruaok: Yes.

samj1912: Go

sure. make an MBH ticket with all the details for making the list. name of the list, description, who should be admin, etc.

reviewed picard PRs, did minor PW code fixing.

Exams, so busy IRL to code much

(Other people up: Freso ruaok reosarevok zas Gentlecat bitmap Quesito CatQuest? gcilou? LordSputnik? - anyone feeling left out, raise your hand. :))

Freso: go :)

I've been keeping up with forums and IRC. I came home from Sweden late Wednesday and caught up on reported editor from the last few days. Just got a reply back from one of them, so their editing rights were reinstated.

I also published my skeleton for a small data-adding script earlier: https://github.com/Freso/freedb2musicbrainz

s/skeleton/outline/

Oh, and I posted something on the forums, but more on that shortly.

reosarevok: Go.

Especially a lot of issues about the BBC suddenly forcing people to enter their MusicBrainz ID, and not making clear what that is

(which, to be fair, neither do we, anywhere very obvious, probably because we never expected people to come specifically looking for their own without knowing what it is)

Right. I get a number of those on the forum as well.

thanks for doing this reosarevok. its been a heavy week.

Other than that, I made a script for nikki's bot and ran it to do the spotify URL change we talked about last week

!m reosarevok

You're doing good work, reosarevok!

I think that's *mostly* done, there might be a few URLs left that we could probably just change by hand

And a couple URLs that shouldn't exist in the first place, because they don't have any rels

And I sent a couple more fixes and improvements for the editing-username code, which IIRC bitmap merged, so yay

That's about it, so: CatQuest!

CatQuest said: "I've not got much to report, still looking for hybrid instruments (if anyone knows of any, please link the MB instrument link in https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/STYLE-723...;

reosarevok: About this, I am looking into MBS-9080

STYLE-723: new instrument-instrument relationship: is a hybrid of

MBS-9080: Create a report of clean-up-able and invalid URLs https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-9080

yvanz: yay :)

yvanz: go!

It has been a very busy week IRL, so I did not have much time for MBS unfortunately.

:) We all have those!

My main occupation was to document myself and improve my dev environment.

Will have more time this week to contribute again.

Devs documenting is rare, but documenting *themselves*? :p

reosarevok: You can edit the URL to make it go away.

Quesito: your turn!

hola!

chirlu: I know, but that still crashes the bot as it's written now, so meh

I started off the week with a meeting with ruaok, for further understanding of MetaBrainz foundation, priorities and goals. I learned quite a bit about our ecosystem, how it is continuously growing and how this merges with our supporters of all sizes.

I began digging into learning about each of our products, although halted a bit while attempting to update the logo on the CAA website. This seemingly simple small update, lead to an education in wiki edits and a discussion about our wiki pages in general, of which I still have a lot to learn about. I will be continuing my education on our products this

week.

!m Quesito

You're doing good work, Quesito!

thanks reosarevok!

I spent quite a bit of time untangling the saga of zvooq and attempting to try to make sense out of a very soap-opera-drama-esque business. I have attempted at fairly deep intelligence on the matter and am hoping this gives us a positive direction at recovering the funds they owe us, which would help us immensely.

Is all this further understanding going to be documented somewhere? I wouldn't mind getting some further learning myself!

reosarevok: Frenglish idiom ;)

(as much as it's open knowledge)

reosarevok: yes of course!

🙌

fin!

zas! go!
