      • CatQuest
        like i said
      • yvanzo, reosarevok, Freso, anyone interested. remind me to write up a .. textual word thingy (what is it called article? paragraph? prose? wtf ever :D) about what instruments should/shouldn't be added, how and why and the legitimate suggestions for why this is. on the wiki (for debate as to it later and exlusion/inclusion of things) once I am not this in need of nosespray
      • evne if it is an email to me
      • πŸ™‡ thank you
      • but that reminds me, i have peppermint tea i jsut bought :d
      • spellew joined the channel
      • meh it wasn't as refrisking as i was hoping
      • yvanzo
        CatQuest: Aren’t INST tickets the place for that?
      • spellew
        yvanzo: I've already added the arrays to stash_keys. The arrays are empty
      • CatQuest
        yvanzo: erhm jira tickets are a great bug tracker for requests for new isntruments
      • making a document about what goes or not and a discussion and a to be created guide is more a wiki thing
      • asfor linked nesteled arrays table thing.
      • that's for me to hlpe visuilaise how things go together
      • yvanzo
        spellew: That might be an issue in the way the reference to top_active_voters is passed to top_voters.
      • CatQuest
        Freso, yvanzo, reosarevok, chhavi, et al.: also remidn me that i'm upposed to create blog posts about instruments (and I was going to do this this december but because of computer issues.. (plus my drafts for the ilk was on this machine))

        OTHER-326: Make wiki page describing the process of adding INST
      • CatQuest
        ehhhh

        CatQuest: you're supposed to write blog posts :D
      • CatQuest
        reosarevok: idk do what freso did omg :P
      • lol
      • reosarevok
        Freso: do blog posts go under ORG?
      • CatQuest
        Freso: hahaha ok <3
      • reosarevok
        Or OTHER?
      • yvanzo
        CatQuest: Oh ok, you mean a general guideline for instruments submission/request. :)
      • CatQuest
        what seriously? lol
      • Freso
        reosarevok: 🀷
      • reosarevok
        CatQuest: well, if it helps you remember, why not
      • CatQuest
        and also the ratioale behind "why won't i adda furby organ" type things :)
      • rationale*
      • Freso
        reosarevok: I wasn't sure whether to put wiki page under OTHER or ORG either. :) I'd say OTHER for now.
      • yvanzo
        It is likely a STYLE issue, reosarevok?
      • CatQuest
        my blogpost bloddy sholdn't be
      • reosarevok: if you can also in that task link to the actual interfacne link thigy for editing blogs because I have lost it again πŸ™€
      • yvanzo
        Nevermind, I didn’t see Freso opened a ticket for that :)
      • spellew
        yvanzo: What do you mean?
      • yvanzo
        spellew: It should be passed by value, not by reference. I’m not sure that the source of the issue though.
      • Freso
        yvanzo, chhavi_/samj1912: Are your agenda items for informing or discussing? How long do you think they'll take?
      • yvanzo
        Freso: Mine is very short, I will just point to what needs to be discussed/looked into for the next time.
      • Freso
        yvanzo: πŸ‘ Thanks.
      • chhavi_
        Same, will just update, drop links :)
      • iliekcom- joined the channel

      • reosarevok
        CatQuest: do you want to create blog posts like "We added this many instruments", or "Look at some cool instruments we have", or both?
      • CatQuest
        idk!
      • it's the blogbost i was so posed t oadd
      • reosarevok
        Ok, if you're supposed to, then probs a) :D
      • Freso
        So if it's supposed to be like the STYLE ones, probably more like the former?
      • reosarevok
        Only less non-existent :(
      • iliekcomputers
        ruaok: any idea on how exactly i avoid hardcoding the address in https://github.com/metabrainz/docker-server-con... ? in MB we just have it in config.sh (https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-serve...)
      • ruaok

      • zas
        hmmm, that's a target then, but imho, you should use the node hosting ftp instead
      • Freso
        CatQuest: As long as your reaction is a meme, I am happy. http://s2.quickmeme.com/img/64/6400d2bb42a5f9ef...

      • CatQuest
        So most of this week was spent sorting it out and setting up the music playing (since my *other* mac (the macmini, which was what was playing the music) went tits up a week ago as well Γ«_Γ«)
      • (which is why "CatCat" is not here)
      • sadly I got ill on friday so I'm still couching and sneezing now. but I'm slowly on the mend luckily! :D
      • From this week on I hope to be doing intervals of hyperion releases and instruments from gci :​​​D
      • since I've borrowed "hyperion" release from thel ibrary, and as they have mostly older releases (90's and 80 cd's :O)
      • I hope it's useful
      • next is..... reosarevok ?
      • reosarevok
        Oh noes!
      • So
      • I've been dealing with support mostly
      • Quite a few people asking for IDs again, wonder why these seem to come in waves
      • ruaok
        new supporters come in strange waves too.
      • reosarevok
        Style-wise, I literally just fixed https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/STYLE-924
      • BrainzBot
        STYLE-924: Update the pseudo-release style guide with information about recordings
      • heyoni joined the channel
      • reosarevok
        And as part of the hyperion cleanup, https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/STYLE-916 came up, which I fixed too
      • BrainzBot
        STYLE-916: Rename "recorded by" to "recording engineer"
      • reosarevok
        Plus zas pestered me about https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/STYLE-914 so that's changed too
      • BrainzBot
        STYLE-914: Clarify rules about names and sort names for Icelandic names
      • reosarevok
        I'm currently looking at more style, so expect a few more tonight!
      • Plus I've been trying to add new hyperion albums as part of the cleanup :)
      • Outside MB proper, I somehow ended up being voted to the board of Wikimedia Eesti. So that's going to be fun.
      • That's it I think, ruaok?
      • ruaok
        k
      • Freso
        reosarevok: Congrats? :)
      • ruaok
        yeah, congrats, reosarevok.
      • reosarevok
        Freso: ask me in a month if congrats or condolences :D
      • ruaok
        more of the same for me, a kinda odd quiet routing.
      • Freso
        reosarevok: Ikr. :)
      • ruaok
        routine
      • board/taxes stuff, phone calls, some accounting BS, listlessly poking at the annual report.
      • reosarevok
        ruaok: aww, I was hoping to hear about a wave of new supporters :p
      • CatQuest
        ruaok the router?
      • and odd new wave
      • ruaok
        LB PRs and trying to get the next beta up and running.
      • and yes, strange waves of supporters is common too.
      • spellew
        yvanzo: It might be a database issue, because the arrays are also empty when using the editors.tt file. Is there a specific database dump I'll need for statistics/editors?
      • CatQuest
        *strange
      • yvanzo
        spellew: after the meeting ;)
      • ruaok
        nothing that tracks holidays or other things in the normal world.
      • just 5-6 people in 2 days and then silence for 2 weeks.
      • CatQuest
        strange waves from out of space/time, oh no!
      • ruaok
        I can't put my finger on it.
      • I've got an ISNI call this week that should be interesting is well. talking with OCLC and I'm basically going to tell them that we can't work with them until they actually guarantee to keep their API up 24/7
      • this every few weeks the API going dark for hours on end has got to stop.
      • Freso
        ISNI = OCLC, or are those two separate conversations?
