      • navap--
        heh. I'll try and put my thoughts up on a wiki page
      • 2011-11-07 31133, 2011

      • ruaok
        nikki: it wasn't changed from what I know.
      • 2011-11-07 31137, 2011

      • ruaok
        this is how its always worked.
      • 2011-11-07 31159, 2011

      • ruaok
        the only thing that was changed as the notice at the top. and the border around non verified pages.
      • 2011-11-07 31143, 2011

      • reosarevok thinks having a clearly delimited "in doc we trust" policy is good, but killing all links to the wiki from it is not
      • 2011-11-07 31149, 2011

      • ruaok
        well, we all agree that its a bit of a mess. lets look at it then.
      • 2011-11-07 31151, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Ok
      • 2011-11-07 31151, 2011

      • ruaok
        reosarevok: +1
      • 2011-11-07 31102, 2011

      • ruaok
        last, but not least BBC editors.
      • 2011-11-07 31105, 2011

      • ruaok
        was that you reosarevok ?
      • 2011-11-07 31110, 2011

      • reosarevok
        It was me
      • 2011-11-07 31118, 2011

      • reosarevok
        But it was more what we have talked a bit already in private
      • 2011-11-07 31133, 2011

      • reosarevok
        And it was added when I thought the journalists did the adding
      • 2011-11-07 31139, 2011

      • reosarevok
        If that's not the case, stuff changes
      • 2011-11-07 31105, 2011

      • ruaok
        its actually a company outside the BBC that does most of the editing of MB data these days.
      • 2011-11-07 31110, 2011

      • ruaok
        all under direction from the BBC.
      • 2011-11-07 31115, 2011

      • ruaok
        mike diver is one such person.
      • 2011-11-07 31127, 2011

      • ruaok
        he's not a direct BBC employess as I understand it.
      • 2011-11-07 31133, 2011

      • reosarevok
        It goes from "people doing stuff that is only marginally their work, getting community hate" to "people doing their work not too well, getting community hate"
      • 2011-11-07 31142, 2011

      • reosarevok
        None of them is ideal
      • 2011-11-07 31147, 2011

      • ruaok
        agreed.
      • 2011-11-07 31155, 2011

      • ruaok
        we're going to have a meeting on this in london.
      • 2011-11-07 31158, 2011

      • ruaok
        in Jan.
      • 2011-11-07 31109, 2011

      • ruaok
        and I have a feeling it might be a good idea for you to be there reosarevok.
      • 2011-11-07 31114, 2011

      • reosarevok
        :p
      • 2011-11-07 31119, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Tallinn - London is cheap
      • 2011-11-07 31121, 2011

      • reosarevok
        So I can do it
      • 2011-11-07 31128, 2011

      • ruaok
        we'd pay, of course.
      • 2011-11-07 31130, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Oh
      • 2011-11-07 31136, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Well, "we" are poor
      • 2011-11-07 31137, 2011

      • ruaok
        ok, lets leave it be for now. we're over time.
      • 2011-11-07 31140, 2011

      • reosarevok
        So the cheapness still counts :p
      • 2011-11-07 31146, 2011

      • ruaok
        I appreciate that.
      • 2011-11-07 31147, 2011

      • warp
        :D
      • 2011-11-07 31159, 2011

      • 2011-11-07 31111, 2011

      • ruaok
        I'm looking forward to you being in a closer timezeon to me, warp.
      • 2011-11-07 31114, 2011

      • ruaok
        thanks for everyone's time.
      • 2011-11-07 31118, 2011

      • ruaok
        lots and lots of stuff going on.

      • 2011-11-07 31102, 2011

        oh, schema changes?
      • 2011-11-07 31122, 2011

      • ruaok
        for me finding the script for autoeditor stuffs.
      • 2011-11-07 31131, 2011

      • luks
        oh
      • 2011-11-07 31154, 2011

      • ruaok
        you just need me to send the live version of rsync-automods-list right?
      • 2011-11-07 31111, 2011

      • luks
        depending on the content of the file you find :)
      • 2011-11-07 31118, 2011

      • luks
        maybe I'll need more
      • 2011-11-07 31121, 2011

        k.
      • 2011-11-07 31133, 2011

      • 2011-11-07 31151, 2011

      • reosarevok wonders what he'd drive for
      • 2011-11-07 31115, 2011

      • reosarevok
        He should just create a Sleng-Pri-Yong device that teleports him around :)
      • 2011-11-07 31122, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Or something
      • 2011-11-07 31132, 2011

      • warp
        he needs to be able to drive to the place where he can renew his driver's license.
      • 2011-11-07 31121, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Oh

      • reosarevok
        It's a shame his Ivory Tower is so far
      • 2011-11-07 31143, 2011

      • reosarevok
        If it wasn't, he could take a taxi
      • 2011-11-07 31144, 2011

      • reosarevok
        :)
      • 2011-11-07 31126, 2011

      • warp
        reosarevok: he tries to limit communication with commoners.
      • 2011-11-07 31137, 2011

      • warp
        reosarevok: I assume taxi-drivers are classified as commoners.
      • 2011-11-07 31150, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Ooops

      • 2011-11-07 31146, 2011

      • reosarevok
        If he was truly amazing, he'd not have a license
      • 2011-11-07 31154, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Like all the amazing people I know who don't have a license
      • 2011-11-07 31102, 2011

      • reosarevok
        That being... err... nikki, do you have a license?
      • 2011-11-07 31159, 2011

      • nikki
        I have a provisional one that I used to use for id (way cheaper than replacing my passport if I lose it)
      • 2011-11-07 31117, 2011

      • nikki
        but I've never had a driving lesson and I can't use it to drive here as far as I know
      • 2011-11-07 31122, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Ok
      • 2011-11-07 31126, 2011

      • reosarevok
        That being nikki and me! :)
      • 2011-11-07 31128, 2011

      • nikki
        so effectively "no" :P
      • 2011-11-07 31100, 2011

      • warp has a driver's license
      • 2011-11-07 31105, 2011

      • warp is not amazing.
      • 2011-11-07 31108, 2011

      • nikki should hope so
      • 2011-11-07 31121, 2011

      • warp
        I got an international one today.
      • 2011-11-07 31129, 2011

      • nikki would never have let you drive through three countries with me and my stuff otherwise :P
      • 2011-11-07 31138, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Oh, come on, warp, don't be so harsh to yourself
      • 2011-11-07 31141, 2011

      • reosarevok
        You are amazng
      • 2011-11-07 31143, 2011

      • reosarevok
        *amazing
      • 2011-11-07 31147, 2011

      • reosarevok
        Just not truly amazing
      • 2011-11-07 31152, 2011

      • reosarevok
        :)
      • 2011-11-07 31104, 2011

      • ruaok
        luks, ocharles: the rsync automods stuff is in a mail to you.
      • 2011-11-07 31133, 2011

      • ruaok
        ok, that was sorted.
      • 2011-11-07 31143, 2011

        ocharles: what data needs to move from where to totoro?
      • 2011-11-07 31154, 2011

      • ocharles
        all the auto mod tables need to be synced
      • 2011-11-07 31103, 2011

      • ocharles
        (just sync against the public tables, luks has written migration scripts)
      • 2011-11-07 31130, 2011

      • ruaok
        which tables exactly?
      • 2011-11-07 31133, 2011

      • luks
        ruaok: so the script from git is not used at all?
      • 2011-11-07 31157, 2011

      • ruaok
        not sure, this is what I found on scooby.

        I really know very little about this stuff.
      • 2011-11-07 31110, 2011

        picky.

      • reosarevok
        Oh, that reminds me of people complaining storing music in the Archive is a mess
      • 2011-11-07 31120, 2011

      • 2011-11-07 31134, 2011

      • reosarevok
        So you should clearly convince them to integrate *that* with MB
      • 2011-11-07 31148, 2011

      • reosarevok
        It would also be a mess, but a more ordered mess :)

        if we want to do it cleanly, we need to take them out of rotation from the load balancer. and then put them back in.
