jasondk: you should a really be chatting with _lucifer about this -- he is our official CB leader.

oh wait -- is this mini reviews for LB?

jasondk
Yep it is

ah, ok. great.

> CB API supports fetching reviews by a CB user uuid but not by musicbrainz username

I was thinking my first task would be to modify the CritiqueBrainz API to allow searching for reviews by musicbrainz_id and search for reviews for every user

that's plenty weird and non-standard for our projects. I guess this project should include a short PR to improve on that, even if only for that endpoint. but the codebases have a lot of similarities.

good plan.

that would also be the sort of thing that would be good before the GSoC period starts. that way we can get to know you a bit before things get busy.
ruaok: CB doesn't require MB usernames because of the BBC reviews that were imported. Not sure if we want to mark these reviews as legacy in some way and require an account going forward

yeah, probably for the best.

well, I guess it isn't even that. there's no way of creating a review without an account. but if we added a "get reviews by musicbrainz user x" we wouldn't ever be able to get a bbc review, but I don't think that's really a problem

not for LB mini reviews, no.

*wouldn't be able to get a bbc review using that method
2021-04-01 09133, 2021
alastairp
yeah, exactly

wow. $214,927.35 in income last quarter. I wish that wasn't an aberration.
