      • samj1912
        ruaok: gotcha
      • and thoughts on officially kept plugins?
      • reosarevok
        Anyway, I'm happy to say "let's talk about it further with a more clear idea on the table" too, though
      • reosarevok thinks a few things should probably be officially maintained plugins
      • ruaok
        samj1912: I think that will become clear after the discussion from your doc
      • reosarevok
        The feat. thing, the ASCII thing, there's probably a few more
      • CatQuest
        i don't really know the differnce with "offically kept" and the ones we ave now..
      • zas
        the thing is that plugins are just modules, and it doesn't make much difference in pratice... that's an issue with current plugins (no sandbox)
      • CatQuest
        what we have now is made by comunity members anyway
      • samj1912
        okay, will make a doc and we can continue this in the future
      • anyone has anything to add?
      • ruaok
        CatQuest: officially maintained means that we ensure they work when we do a release.
      • CatQuest
        hmm
      • ruaok
        let's move on for now, please.
      • ok, last topic, Sophist-UKL comprehensive tags
      • CatQuest
        well if they are "core" needed things, ie samj1912's idea, we'd *have* to do that
      • ruaok
        UKL?
      • Sophist-UK
        Actually, plugins are in many way an alternative to options. Because users select the plugins the want isntead of setting an option if it was built in.
      • CatQuest
        hmm..
      • i agree with soem things and inverive in others
      • like reo's idea
      • reosarevok thought Sophist-UK was BR-exiting anyway, so why UK :p
      • reosarevok
        Anyway, yeah, go on with the tags bit I guess :)
      • Sophist-UK
        Comprehensive Tags is about analysing what each format can support and making sure we can load and save those tags, and ditto for making sure that we have tags to hold the data that is on MB.
      • CatQuest
        but other plugin are like "i wish it was main part of picard"
      • samj1912
        Sophist-UK: I have no problem with that
      • Sophist-UK is emigrating from the UK to PT if all goes well.
      • CatQuest
        the same tags for every type of file type?
      • mb-tags?
      • Sophist-UK
        The thing I wanted to discuss was howto make this happen in a sequence of small frequent PRs.
      • samj1912
        CatQuest: we currently dont cover all the tags that a file format supports
      • CatQuest
        aaha
      • Sophist-UK
        I tried it once before as a mega PR and quite rightly people didn't like the size of it.
      • reosarevok
        (we mostly don't support obscure rare ones, AFAICT, but some people use them)
      • samj1912
        I am not against more tag support, but in case it requires more option pages, I think they are better as plugins
      • Sophist-UK
        So this time I would like to do it in smaller pieces. First define a more comprehensive list of tags, then add file loading and saving / population from MB data tag by tag.
      • Not thinking of any new options.
      • samj1912
        Sophist-UK: I also would not like to see our dependencies rise for some obscure formats
      • CatQuest has no problem with ore option pages but think we need to redesign the ones we have to be more logical and more logically ordered
      • Sophist-UK
        Not thinking of any new formats either.
      • CatQuest
        (and named)
      • reosarevok
        I'd say "add all the tags as stuff that can be kept unchanged" first maybe, and then worry abotu the others later?
      • *about
      • Sophist-UK
        Just extending existing formats.
      • reosarevok
        But I guess that's basically what Sophist-UK suggested
      • samj1912
        +1 from me then
      • reosarevok
        er. about the other stuff, like actually saving MB data to them or not
      • samj1912
        Sophist-UK: you will be targetting 2.0 with that then?
      • Sophist-UK
        Yes.
      • Too much to try to target 1.4.x and 2.0
      • The only thing that has come up from Paul Taylor (Jaikoz/Song Kong) is to save work in ID3 as TXXX:WORK (which is industry standard) instead of TXXX:Work (which is MB historical).
      • zas
        better target 2.x with new features from now on
      • ruaok
        almost out of time.
      • CatQuest
        probably only bugfixes for 1.4.x from now on
      • ruaok
        did you get enough feedback Sophist-UK?
      • zas
        +1 CatQuest
      • ruaok
        I don't think we really adressed the "how to do this in small increments" did we?
      • Sophist-UK
        The only thing I would ask (in order to try to get the multitude of small PRs merged is that people review them reasonably quickly.
      • ruaok
        smaller PRs are reviewed much more easliy than large ones.
      • it might also be good to specifcally remind people about reviewing them from time to time.
      • reosarevok
        I think picard development right now involves a lot of quick reviewing anyway?
      • CatQuest
        hmm we're going over the time now D:
      • samj1912
        reosarevok: yes :P
      • Sophist-UK
        First PR would be to add a more comprehensive list of tags to /constants/tags.py. I expect there to be some discussion about the additional tags which we should get out of the way first.
      • Ok - enough from me.
      • ruaok
        woo, almost on time.
      • :)
      • yvanzo

      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, ruaok!
      • ruaok
        thanks Sophist-UK, thanks everyone!
      • reosarevok
        Sounds like a good start, I guess do that one and talk about the next steps later ;)
      • Sophist-UK
        ok.
      • CatQuest
        /bang !
      • Sophist-UK
        Other small stuff to do first. And the iTunes Moement stuff needs to be merged before the first PR.
      • Mineo
        I would actually prefer to leave a bit more time for reviewing picard pull requests - in the last few weeks, there usually have been only 2-4 hours between the last commit to a pull request and it being merged

        But some PRs languish for days or even weeks.

      • ruaok
        CatQuest: I cleared the db on beta.listenbrainz again. care to do another import from last.fm?
      • CatQuest
        .. alright :)
      • reosarevok would guess "days" is probably more in line with what Mineo would want?
      • reosarevok
        After all, we did set 48 h review time in MB itself for stuff so people could see the changes and react :)
      • ruaok
        thx
      • CatQuest
        ruaok: now on page 12

      • it's fast, but many pages
      • whoo already 50

      • Sophist-UK
        48h sounds OK to me.
      • Mineo
        it doesn't need to be 48 hours, but the python 3 pull request was like 1 hour between the last commit and the merge
      • (again, I really don't want to blame anyone, but we're not trying to build some MVP nonsense to be the first ones on the market or something like that :-) )
