        Great!
      • I worked on AB a lot this week, had a quite productive discussion with alastairp on what we need to do to get AB data dumps working again. I then spent a some time reading AB code and understanding the schema. Working on AB-315 for now. Also opened a few small PRs on LB, but now that stuff is being reviewed again, I'll start focusing more on LB again.

        (Still up: Freso, reosarevok, bitmap, zas, ruaok, yvanzo, samj1912; maybe up (please confirm): LordSputnik, Leftmost, Leo_Verto, alastairp, CatQuest, chhavi_, ListMyCDs, ferbncode, jwf; anyone else?)
      • 🙋
      • ferbncode is here, but not much to report.(just started working on some CB work)
      • Leftmost is Heremost, also has little to report.
      • Last week I added the AcoustID category to the forum, as discussed last meeting:
      • I poked a bit at the KEXP situation.
      • The MetaBrainz Foundation had a board meeting on Friday, so as Secretary of the board, I also did some work surrounding that.
      • jwf is here, but has nothing to report as of now – caught up in travels, working through past actions. But still here :)
      • We got the news on Thursday that we're in for another round of Google Code-in, so that also took some of my time. I'll talk more about GCI later (expect that to be a recurring agenda item for the next several weeks :)).
      • Apart from that, hanging around on IRC and forums.
      • iliekcomputers excited for GCI!
      • !fin

        Hi
      • So this week I worked with bitmap to complete the rest of Solr project.After 115 commits and 40 PRs this month, We are now at feature parity with the current search server and I have also solved all the blocking bugs and tickets.Atleast the ones Mineo and Gentlecat told me about and the ones me reo and bitmap figured out. Only Just https://github.com/metabrainz/sir/pull/53 Is left to be merged. Apart from that I also learnt a lot
      • of things this week. More info on solr.
      • And I also learnt perl basics.
      • I also helped bitmap with creating a test dump
      • Which involved me going through our entire db
      • I also worked with zas to dockerize the solr server properly
      • And also learnt about the way our deployment process works properly.
      • I also documented the solr project
      • fin
      • jwf
        Heheh. :D I forget there isn't a karma bot here.

      • chhavi_
        I mostly explored the "release" pages. Edited a personal video about a summit during the weekend. Link is here: https://youtu.be/sxCzHCOb4NA
      • For all those who were there, and couldn't be!
      • Then started working on the "edits" page a bit. Ran the mockups through Ruoak. Will slice it up for feedback and put it up on tickets this coming week :)
      • fin!
      • zas
        samj1912: amazing !!

      • Freso wonders where reosarevok's at
      • Freso
        reosarevok: Go, I think? If you're here?
      • If not, zas, go. And reosarevok can go after if he's around.
      • zas
        ok
      • reosarevok
        Sorry, I was at a concert. I'll go after zas

      • zas
        i migrated stuff from our old nagios server at ousl.org to gcloud, and set up alerts through telegram, it was involving a lot of small tasks, but i sorted it out, dine
      • Freso
        "dine"?
      • zas

      • That makes more sense. :p
      • zas
        i handled few user complaints about blacklist
      • jwf wonders how MeB uses GCloud… would be an interesting read.
      • Freso
        All of them QNAP'ers?
      • zas
        most of them
      • some have dynamic IPs, so ...
      • but that's very few compared to the number of blacklisted IPs
      • about that, we are making progress with QNAP team...
      • they are aware of the issue, and may do something
      • Freso 🙌
      • Freso
        That sounds like a very diplomatic phrase.
      • zas
        well, not sure if they'll actually do something until they do
      • you know, big company ....
      • yvanzo
        Freso: There is no magic wand, even in their hands.
      • Freso
        Sure.
      • zas
        apart that, server upgrades, minor fixes, server reboots, etc....
      • fin. yvanzo ?
      • anshuman73 is in too, after a long time. though, nothing to report as of now, Probably will in the upcoming weeks leading to GCI, once I catch up.
      • yvanzo
        HI!
      • Freso
        anshuman73: :)
      • reosarevok
        I did support, and spent the rest of the week doing homework and trying to get my project with Wikimedia Estonia ready. I did look at some style related posts on the forum and made some comments though
      • (I said I'd go after zas! :P)
      • anshuman73 is sure glad to be back though :)
      • yvanzo: go :)
      • yvanzo

        (Still up: bitmap, ruaok, alastairp; maybe up (please confirm): LordSputnik, Leo_Verto, CatQuest, ListMyCDs; anyone else?)
      • yvanzo: I'm pretty sure that's all he had. Just go. :)
      • Leo_Verto is here
      • yvanzo
        ooh, ok :)
      • Beta-released long-awaited code changes, breaking rels edits display and sidebar tag editor, swiftly hotfixed by bitmap. Next server update to be released within the following hours.
      • Leo_Verto has nothing to report though
      • Reviewed and debugged newly reported bugs, inspected bootsy MB containers for unusual activity, still worked on hiding spam and other requests from irc/community.community
      • Not Leo_Verto then but anshuman73 next
      • anshuman73 already reported :)
      • oops, nothing either, go bitmap :)
      • Freso
        Not anshuman73 either as he has "nother to report as of now", so bitmap, go. :)
      • bitmap
        hey
      • Freso
        yvanzo: :)
      • *nothing (so much for typing the quote rather than c/p'ing)
      • bitmap
        I worked with samj to test the sample data dump I made (MBS-8736) and he made a list of missing data that I added in, should be ready to generate a new dump today
      • BrainzBot
        MBS-8736: Provide a partial data dump for testing purposes https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-8736
      • bitmap
        helped some more with sir code review
      • hot-fixed some cache issues with series pages after we deployed something to beta, and some other beta issues people reported (I broke things as yvanzo pointed out)
      • upgraded jenkins since it had some giant red text about a security vulnerability
      • submitted a PR to retry the full export -> ftp rsync if it fails, since that's happened a couple times recently
      • that's mostly it, fin. ruaok next?
      • zas
        !m bitmap
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, bitmap!
      • Freso
        Is ruaok not around?
      • alastairp: Go!
      • alastairp
        hi
      • I closed a few small PRs for AB last week and released them
      • Freso
        (Only ruaok left, unless LordSputnik, CatCat/FishQuest, ListMyCDs, or someone else chimes up.)
      • alastairp
        I'm working on a few more that have been open since the last SoC round of students
      • some of them were left unfinished, so I've been catching up to work out what was done/not done and fixing them
      • more of the same this week
      • next
      • Freso
        ruaok: ?
      • :/
      • I guess we'll go to next agenda item and see if Rob maybe pops back in.
      • Freso: Google Code-in
      • So! We've been accepted for another round of Google Code-in!! 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉
      • iliekcomputers
        🙌🏽
      • alastairp
        iliekcomputers: if you're still around after the meeting, ping me and we can talk about dumps; otherwise let's try and schedule a time in the next few days where I'm around
      • zas
        !m MetaBrainz
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, MetaBrainz!
      • ruaok is vaguely here
      • Freso
        So I've been rounding up the last few mentors and getting them into the Google Hangout. We'll start on getting tasks imported in the next few days.
      • iliekcomputers
        alastairp: I don't think I'll be able to stay awake for long after the meeting. Talking tomorrow or the day after would be great.
      • Freso
        We've got three former GCI winners on the mentor team this year, a number of Google Code-in'ers, a number of staff, and a number of our otherwise awesome volunteers. I'm very happy with our mentor team so far, but if anyone wants to join in, just let me know and we'll see what we can figure out. :)
      • Eh.
      • *a number of Google Summer of Coders
      • iliekcomputers
        So many mentors :)
      • Dalek_ joined the channel
      • Freso
        Also, since we're not supposed to have the task suggestions public between org. announcement and actual start of the contest, the task suggestions page has been deleted on the wiki.
      • If anyone has suggestions that they don't think made it to the suggestions page, feel free to e-mail me at freso@metabrainz.org :)
      • iliekcomputers: Yes, I think this is our largest number of mentors so far!
      • Certainly our largest number of programming-able ones.
      • Freso almost wrote programmable 🙈
      • Not much other than that for now.
      • ruaok: Want to give a review?
      • ruaok
        k
      • iliekcomputers
        Freso: there was a LB task that was fixed by a friend of mine (independent of GCI), that should not be imported i guess?
      • ruaok
        doing bizdev & punching bag duties.
      • Freso
        iliekcomputers: Indeed. We'll double check tasks before importing them.
      • ruaok
        after 2 months of punching bag duties, I'm formally over it.
      • morale and motivation at record lows.
      • fin.
      • Freso
        Alright.
      • ruaok goes to make dinner
      • Thanks for your time everyone!
