      • 2010-10-01 27421, 2010

      • ruaok
        is there something you need in the meantime?
      • 2010-10-01 27411, 2010

      • warp
        no, just being curious :)
      • 2010-10-01 27426, 2010

      • ruaok
        ah, ok.
      • 2010-10-01 27431, 2010

      • ruaok
        I'm ready to be home.
      • 2010-10-01 27445, 2010

      • ruaok
        yesterday I was going to the bathroom in the lebanese restaurant.
      • 2010-10-01 27457, 2010

      • ruaok
        and as I walk walking, I totally lost track of where I was.
      • 2010-10-01 27416, 2010

      • warp
        haha
      • 2010-10-01 27417, 2010

      • ruaok
        I was talking to apache people from all over europe, so I was totally confused.
      • 2010-10-01 27425, 2010

      • ruaok
        I had to stop and listen to people to realize I was in paris.
      • 2010-10-01 27428, 2010

      • ruaok
        very very odd.
      • 2010-10-01 27437, 2010

      • ruaok
        a sign that its time to stop traveling. :)
      • 2010-10-01 27448, 2010

      • ruaok
        but there are two people here who travel much much more than I.
      • 2010-10-01 27455, 2010

      • warp
        yep, that sounds like being away from home just a bit too long
      • 2010-10-01 27409, 2010

      • ruaok
        yeah.
      • 2010-10-01 27427, 2010

      • ruaok
        and i'm thinking, I need a vacation... but that would be... travel.
      • 2010-10-01 27436, 2010

      • ruaok
        and I can't do staycations. that doesn't work.
      • 2010-10-01 27449, 2010

      • warp
        for me, a vacation is just being home coding on stuff _I_ want to code.
      • 2010-10-01 27457, 2010

      • ruaok nods
      • 2010-10-01 27407, 2010

      • 2010-10-01 27441, 2010

      • ruaok
        hi ijabz
      • 2010-10-01 27405, 2010

      • warp
        makes sense. I can see why people would want to do that. I'm not ready for it :)
      • 2010-10-01 27407, 2010

      • ijabz

      • ruaok
        the network is getting bogged down again as sessions are starting up again.
      • 2010-10-01 27443, 2010

      • ruaok
        I'll have to look at that bug later.
      • 2010-10-01 27409, 2010

      • ijabz
        its something we discussed before, that I think needs doing
      • 2010-10-01 27416, 2010

      • ruaok
        ok.
      • 2010-10-01 27426, 2010

      • ijabz

      • 2010-10-01 27456, 2010

      • ruaok
        I'm going to be talking about MB between 15h-16h. if you care, I think the open world forum sessions are being webcast.
      • 2010-10-01 27403, 2010

      • ruaok
        ok, I'm off!
      • 2010-10-01 27410, 2010

      • ijabz
        one minute there, one minute gone I guess he means http://www.openworldforum.org/
      • 2010-10-01 27402, 2010

      • warp
        yes
      • 2010-10-01 27417, 2010

      • warp
        don't see any webcasts though
      • 2010-10-01 27452, 2010

      • ijabz
        no, i couldnt see them either
      • 2010-10-01 27433, 2010

      • ijabz
        right , gonna do some Musicbrainz testing, see if I can find some work for Oliie

      • hawke_
        Hey…is the documentation at http://musicbrainz.org/doc/Release_Script going to be updated to reflect the new release scripts when NGS comes out?
      • 2010-10-01 27430, 2010

      • nikki
        new?
      • 2010-10-01 27448, 2010

      • hawke_
        Hmm, I guess just updated, period.
      • 2010-10-01 27458, 2010

      • nikki
        it hasn't been changed
      • 2010-10-01 27400, 2010

      • hawke_
        The script data comes from ISO 15924, with the exception that the code Hkrt, "(alias for Hiragana + Katakana)" has been renamed to "Kanji & Kana" as Japanese is often a mix of kanji, hiragana and katakana and there's no single script code to cover this.
      • 2010-10-01 27406, 2010

      • hawke_
        That’s not correct, is it?
      • 2010-10-01 27417, 2010

      • nikki
        hm. that was changed ages ago
      • 2010-10-01 27423, 2010

      • hawke_
        Since code “Jpan” does exist to cover it.
      • 2010-10-01 27445, 2010

      • hawke_
        I’ve updated the wiki page now, but the doc page is obviously still wrong.
      • 2010-10-01 27400, 2010

      • hawke_
        (Sorry, thought it was a NGS change, didn’t notice that “Kanji & Kana” didn’t exist any more in the old schema either)
      • 2010-10-01 27410, 2010

      • nikki
        heh, it's been like that nearly 2 years and you're the first person I've seen to point it out
      • 2010-10-01 27459, 2010

      • hawke_
        :-D

      • hawke_
        Why is there direct search distinct from normal search?
      • 2010-10-01 27419, 2010

      • hawke_
        And is there some reason that direct search doesn’t ignore spaces, while normal search does?
      • 2010-10-01 27430, 2010

      • alastairp
        direct search goes directly to the database, which is completely up to date
      • 2010-10-01 27447, 2010

      • alastairp
        normal search has an index to speed up search times, but it's only updated periodicly (once a day?)
      • 2010-10-01 27402, 2010

      • alastairp
        so you won't get newly entered stuff
      • 2010-10-01 27423, 2010

      • navap
        It's much more frequent than that. Every 6 hours I think.
      • 2010-10-01 27452, 2010

      • alastairp
        that makes more sense
      • 2010-10-01 27412, 2010

      • hawke_
        So, no way to make direct search ignore spaces like the indexed search does?

      • 2010-10-01 27406, 2010

      • hawke_
        Nothing, just seems strange/unfortunate that it’s necessary to add a bunch of aliases to deal with japanese names.
      • 2010-10-01 27452, 2010

      • nikki
        ijabz: does the search server have special handling for cjk stuff?
      • 2010-10-01 27414, 2010

      • brianfreud
        Anyone have any idea in a gnome regexp how to negate the pattern correctly? ie, to negate .*ogg|.*flac|.*mp3 ?
      • 2010-10-01 27424, 2010

      • nikki
        what's a gnome regex?
      • 2010-10-01 27453, 2010

      • brianfreud
        Anything gnome, but in this case, a regexp filter w/in gnome-search-tool
      • 2010-10-01 27455, 2010

      • brianfreud
        trying to clean out my dump dir, and looking for anything that isn't one of those file types
      • 2010-10-01 27458, 2010

      • navap
        Why not move everything that does match that regex into a separate folder and then do away with everything that's left?
      • 2010-10-01 27450, 2010

      • brianfreud
        messier :P
      • 2010-10-01 27451, 2010

      • nikki would just use find
      • 2010-10-01 27455, 2010

      • brianfreud
        I'm trying to see what all even is there that may be true junk, rather than image/pdf/rdf/doc/etc associated with those music files
      • 2010-10-01 27448, 2010

      • nikki
        find somedir/ -type f -not -iregex '.*\.\(ogg\|flac\|mp3\)' or something
      • 2010-10-01 27448, 2010

      • ijabz
        nikki:yes it does , but Im not too au fait what this handling is
