      • Freso
        Nei!
      • CatQuest
        you demand a shrubbery?!
      • reosarevok
        NI!
      • CatQuest
        THE!
      • reosarevok
        reosarevok says: I need to pick up my putting the shopping in the fridge times better
      • CatQuest
        IT
      • reosarevok
        Also
      • So I did mostly support, because I spent half of the week stressing over the final preparations for
      • CatQuest
        \o/
      • reosarevok
        (science people, send us photos!)
      • And the other half at a conference being Freso's spokesman :p
      • CatQuest
        hah
      • Freso
        :)
      • reosarevok
        Which was actually very interesting and got a couple interesting contacts out of it
      • Freso
        It seemed like an interesting conference.
      • reosarevok
        It was! :)
      • Useful both for work, volunteering and uni
      • So yay
      • Freso
        Thanks a lot for the heads up about the live stream. :)
      • reosarevok
        But anyway, that's about it for me
      • CatQuest
        who says next?
      • reosarevok
        Freso says
      • Freso
        🙋
      • I finally got around to doing OTHER-310, after chhavi_'s pestering me about it (but also since not doing it kind of held up her work, which hurts us all, so it good that she kept pestering me). More about that in a bit.
      • BrainzBot
        OTHER-310: Add Jira workflow for design/UI/UX/etc. tickets https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/OTHER-310
      • reosarevok
        Oh and I bought nice speakers!! ;P
      • !m chhavi_ and Freso
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, chhavi_ and Freso!
      • Freso
        I asked chhavi_ to write a blog post about the summit, and she said yes, and had it done shortly after, and then I did some copy-editing and we pinged a bit back and forth and ended up (after some more proof reading by reosarevok) in the form of:
      • CatQuest
        slow blog is slooow
      • Freso
        Verily.
      • I (hopefully) put the last touches on getting DDG to index to MusicBrainz (for now) and gave samj1912 access to the Bing Webmaster account so that I'm not the only one with the "golden keys".
      • CatQuest
        👍
      • reosarevok
        Yay
      • Freso
        I dealt a slight bit with KEXP (mostly by reading/listening to drsaunde's reports of the current situation).
      • !m drsaunde
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, drsaunde!
      • reosarevok
        That should probably be added to some safe team page where we can access them
      • The passwords
      • Freso
        reosarevok: There are no passwords.
      • reosarevok
        I would say syswiki but we can't access that
      • Oh, ok then
      • Magic Microsoft account access?
      • Freso
        Well, there are the passwords to mine and samj1912's "personal" accounts. (My account is the freso@meb mail, so it's not really personal-personal.)
      • But I'm pretty sure samj1912 won't want his personal Microsoft account password stored there, and I'd rather not have my freso@meb either. (If I ever leavy MeB in a disputed way, Rob can take over my e-mail and get/reset the account password.)
      • reosarevok
        Sure
      • Freso
        But as I said last meeting (or the meeting before?), any of the MeB staff with MS accounts that want access, just let me know.
      • (Or you can create one with your @meb address.)
      • reosarevok
        Thanks for setting all that up btw
      • !Freso
      • Freso
        XD
      • reosarevok
        Eh
      • You know what I mean :D
      • reosarevok sleepy
      • CatQuest also
      • Freso
        I also spent time on forums and IRC as per usual and answered a couple of support@ mails about GCI.
      • I also did some GCI coordinating, but pretty much took the weekend off to spend some time with girlfriend before going back to Catalonia tomorrow.
      • And besides MeB paid things, I also picked up streaming again yesterday, adding a couple of events on stream, and I spent a good chunk of my time on Wednesday and Thursday watching a live stream of this open data conference in Estonia, and made reosarevok ask some questions on my behalf.
      • Flying midday-ish tomorrow, but will try to catch up once I've gotten home.
      • Fin!!
      • Sorry for that long update. :x
      • bitmap: go!
      • bitmap

      • I did some code review, fixed some cron mishaps on bootsy, worked on moving important stuff to hip
      • ruaok
        thanks for taking care of bootsy
      • bitmap
        made some bugs fixes and perf improvements to the sample data dump script

      • ruaok
        last week I was getting some motivation back, but still kinda hard.
      • I was dealing with a lot of board crap. I wrote a contractor conflict resolution protocol and the board will discuss.
      • finished dealing with 2016 taxes and other metabrainz crap. had a couple of conference calls.
      • and I did some LB reviews, but not nearly enough.
      • LordSputnik
        I can go next :)
      • ruaok
        and now I am getting excited about the massive data dump that McGill dropped on massive amounts of listens. that is a treasure trove. and a very large one at that.
      • fin. Leftmost!
      • reosarevok
        Leftmost went, do you mean LordSputnik ?
      • Leftmost
        I already went. LordSputnik! :)
      • ruaok
        L* go!
      • Leftmost files a petition to have LordSputnik change his name.
      • CatQuest
        to L*?
      • LordSputnik
        Ok
      • Freso
        LeftSputnik? Lordmost?
      • CatQuest
        Lordmost!
      • LordSputnik
        So this week I was mainly writing unit tests for the new form validators
      • Going to finish that off tonight
      • Also wrote up a total of one GCI task
      • CatQuest
        :D
      • !m LordSputnik
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, LordSputnik!
      • CatQuest
        (I mean did a few too but :P)
      • LordSputnik
        Gotta get both the task writeups and the new entity editor done before GCI starts
      • CatQuest
        oh yes
      • LordSputnik
        So will be working on that until the end of November

        Little status update. Autumn has been extremely busy with my studies. Thanks to the lack of university funding the amount of group work has been increased and suddenly it's not only my personal effort that affects my schedule. This madness seems to end for a while and I finally have time to continue my earlier work.
      • I will limit editing if necessary to free more time for this. If flu isn't going to kill me I will continue later on this week.
