Freso
(People still up: Freso, bitmap, ruaok-via-Freso, yvanzo, chhavi_, CatQuest; people maybe up (please confirm!): ListMyCDs; anyone else?)
alastairp: 🙈
alastairp
really successful SoC summit - I ran a session about collaboration between orgs for Soc
with a kind-of-focus on musicbrainz
had an interesting discussion with mixxxdj and dbpedia, some possible collaborations there
I met with Felipe, who is the BigQuery developer advocate - he gave a talk
Freso
I've had a bit of talk with Mixxx people as well.
They seem interested... but undermanned. :)
alastairp
we grabbed an office and did some hacking / he gave me some suggestions on how to better our BQ infrastructure, I'll take a look at that
iliekcomputers
alastairp: re LB? (or AB?)
alastairp
some other good talks about making PRs and first point of contact for new contributors nicer
maybe we can take a look at this in the future - mostly around automating all parts of the PR process that can be, so that the human interaction is more useful
iliekcomputers: both
amazing to see more AB reviews coming in, going to try really hard to look at some of them this week
bitmap: ?
Freso
:)
bitmap
hey
well, I did a bit of sir and mbs code review
then worked on finishing this ticket to generate a test/sample data dump
samj1912
\o/
bitmap
it uses a few hard coded artists and then crawls the db to get related info... but it crawls too much info right now :) I just need to fix that
also did other boring stuff like fixing our selenium tests, which a chrome update broke
fin. Freso ?

I did some work on getting DuckDuckGo to index us.
Which in turn meant getting Yahoo! to index us.
(us = MusicBrainz)
Which in turn meant getting Bing to index us.
CatQuest
\o/
samj1912
yay \o/
Freso
So we (= I) now have a Bing webmaster account.
CatQuest
:O
Freso
zas didn't want to get MS infected, but if bitmap or yvanzo or someone has/wants to make an MS account, I can give them access.
(So it's not just me with access to it.)
bitmap
sure, might already have one
samj1912
I have a MS account :P
zas
Bing meant getting Microsoft to index us, meant Old Evil to look at us .... scary... Reminds me the Eye of Sauron....
CatQuest
hum.
Freso
Send me mails to freso@meb if you want access and I'll get to it. :)
CatQuest
I don't really agree with "evil microsoft" anym ore these days
Freso
I also did some Discourse version updating.
zas
CatQuest: (hence the "Old" ) ;=
Freso
And I approached luks about AcoustID questions on our forums (more about that later).
zas
but i'm joking ;)
Freso
And spent time on IRC and forums and with girlfriend.
zas: May want to poke you about doing the DNS thing for the rest of our *brainz domains too, but let's take that at that time.
zas
(damn i read "spent time on IRC and forums with girlfriend...)
Freso
zas: :p
zas
Freso: ok
CatQuest
but that's a good point. get her on mb
Freso
Naw. I'm waiting for MBS-... something. Then she'll want to sign up.
chhavi_: Thanks! Don't get afraid to propose drastically different user workflows :)
Almost the same week as before: fixed few other small issues, investigated recently reported bugs and finishing admin UI to confirm & hide spam and allow the future SpamBrainz to analyze & retrieve it.
There has been no MB server release since the Summit 17. Be reassured that the usual 2 weeks release cycle is going to start again, next beta will be released in the following hours.
bitmap
thanks yvanzo
yvanzo
Fin, I guess it is either ListMyCDs? Otherwise ruaok-via-Freso?
Freso
ListMyCDs hasn't confirmed, so ruaok-via-Freso is last one up.
