      • Freso
        Including going through more (maybe the last) reported spam MB profiles (plz 2 not b report more before SpamBrainz is a thing) and added them to the list I'm sharing with yvanzo.
      • 2018-07-16 19704, 2018

      • Freso
        Also came across https://chaoss.community/ which I've made a note of looking more into.

        Could be great to start getting some more numbers on community health.

        Other than that, being around and about.

      • 2018-07-16 19729, 2018

      • Freso
        There will probably be a few outliers, but almost all Spotify URLs should now have been normalised. (Or will be in a week when all FresoBot's open edits have applied.)
      • 2018-07-16 19730, 2018

      • reosarevok
        Neat!
      • 2018-07-16 19739, 2018

        This should make it a lot easier to do Spotify–MB linkage now.

        This week, I've been reading up on Spark and started some work on moving LB stuff to spark. Some progress there, nothing to show much yet, mostly spent time on reading.
      • 2018-07-16 19711, 2018

      • iliekcomputers
        Other than that, I worked with rsh7 testing and merging PRs, pointing out issues etc etc. Also, filled the GSoC eval, tried to find the fail all button but it wasn't there. :(
      • 2018-07-16 19719, 2018

      • iliekcomputers
        Then, made a roadmap for moving AB to our Hetzner servers where all our other dockerized projects reside, with PRs to AB creating Dockerfiles and other config suff.

        I worked on a PR to keep the musicbrainz schema updated with the main MB db. Then I opened a small PR to add a sleep schedule for musicbrainz importer.
      • 2018-07-16 19754, 2018

      • rsh7
        Now, I am working on writing tests for import_mb_db script.

        rsh7: yeah, let's get that done quickly and move to the next part of the project.
      • 2018-07-16 19738, 2018

      • rsh7
        Once I get reviews from iliekcomputers on currently opened PR’s, we will move forward to be working on testing and deciding which method to use further for MB data use in AB.

        right now it takes about 4 hours. if you could the procrastinating from me not wanting to do it, it is considerably more.

        I'm working hard on getting the amount of time we spend on accounting back to a reasonable state -- like 3-4 hours per quarter.
