I spent a lot of time catching up on email and talking to prospective customers.
2015-07-20 20114, 2015
ruaok
I can't tell if all this activity is a backlog of people wanting to talk to us and it being make clear or if this is the level of attention that I need to pay this process going forward.
2015-07-20 20123, 2015
ruaok
currently it is half of my time, which is redonkulous.
2015-07-20 20153, 2015

but, SF company OpenAura joins the ranks of people supporting us now.

hopefully neckt week I can find more time to pursue bigger fish with deeper pockets.

ruaok: Well, if it's the level of attention we can expect going forward, we should be able to find means to pay someone to deal with it?
2015-07-20 20100, 2015
ruaok
Freso: hopefully yes. especially if this position pays for itself, which it might.

Is it right that AB is on the supporters page? Isn't it covered already because it's a MeB project?
2015-07-20 20115, 2015
ruaok
too hard to tell, but I'd rather manage the teams than continually talk to customers.
2015-07-20 20141, 2015
ruaok
LordSputnik: it is all a fine line. let's add bookbrainz. :)
2015-07-20 20106, 2015
ruaok
then, of course I spent a bunch of time writing blog posts and pondering how to move forward with things.

Well dunno about AB but MB definitely is a MeB supporter, given it is where the income comes from :D
ruaok wonders where in the EU I can buy an Apple keyboard with a US layout.

I have some tweaks to do, but I'd like to get it up to be tested sooner rather than later
2015-07-20 20101, 2015

ruaok: You don't have any US'ians coming over one of the coming days who could bring one along?
2015-07-20 20106, 2015

weeksio: lets see if I can help you with that after the meeting, even though I have to run right after
2015-07-20 20116, 2015

so, I'll be working with ianmcorvidae to take care of that in the next couple of days

I'm applying for a dev course in vocational education. I'm not sure how much new stuff I'd learn (apart from Estonian) but in any case if they do take me it should make me feel more confident with code, which would be neat :)

And relatedly, I might need some note from ruaok like "the dude has worked for me and he isn't completely dumb"

(it's ok, you can tell that small lie for me :p)

I want to go over the development priorities since they are quite different from the recent past.

Ian mentioned that it might not make sense to handle FreeDB with Solr
2015-07-20 20126, 2015

So, #1 and #2 are not going to change much over time.
2015-07-20 20143, 2015

bitmap: modbot seems to have been complaining about the same edit for weeks.
2015-07-20 20154, 2015
ruaok
I can tell passage of time by how many times modbot complains.
2015-07-20 20159, 2015
bitmap was never added to the modbot/nagios email stuff :/
2015-07-20 20104, 2015
ruaok
ah ha!
2015-07-20 20113, 2015
ruaok
ok, I'll task myself with that.
2015-07-20 20115, 2015
Freso
I think #1 and #2 are closely related.
2015-07-20 20141, 2015
ruaok
and once you get hourly emails, you'll get a reminder to fickz modbot asap, right?
2015-07-20 20142, 2015
reosarevok
To a degree, but sometimes it's a very minor thing that breaks modbot for one edit and doesn't really affect the average user
2015-07-20 20143, 2015

Being about operating smoothly.
2015-07-20 20153, 2015

It does affect the devs' inboxes though so it's likely to get fixed anyway :p
2015-07-20 20108, 2015

(well, now that bitmap will get them)
2015-07-20 20129, 2015
bitmap
well, I've already given up having a sane inbox
2015-07-20 20143, 2015
ruaok
bitmap: was there anything else that you should've been added to but haven't?
2015-07-20 20103, 2015

hmm. those are the only two I'm aware of right now
2015-07-20 20120, 2015

bitmap: good decision! *looks at "Inbox (58,387)"*
2015-07-20 20128, 2015

bitmap: ok, I'll do those right after the meeting.
2015-07-20 20139, 2015

back to the priorities.

#3: Community improvement features: So, a lot of the important community improvement things have been talked about, but never implemented.
2015-07-20 20154, 2015
ruaok
so, the plan is to finish off features from the may 17 schema change and then not start new projects unless they ficks issues related to our community.
2015-07-20 20143, 2015
ruaok
the leads us to #4, which is to do correct bugs on current features.
2015-07-20 20152, 2015
ruaok
clearly we need to continue doing that.
2015-07-20 20119, 2015
weeksio_ has left the channel
2015-07-20 20148, 2015
ruaok
then somewhere in the middle of all that, I would like to put the new logo/branding into the site. without going all bootstrap. that is too much work for now.
2015-07-20 20122, 2015
ruaok
#6 is to create new features, which may not happen until autumn.
2015-07-20 20137, 2015
ruaok
finally is #7, which is schema change release.
2015-07-20 20139, 2015
ruaok
of which we won't have another one this year.
2015-07-20 20110, 2015
ruaok
we keep chasing schema change releases with only a 2 months off between them. if that. so, the follwing schema change release will be may 15ish 2016.
2015-07-20 20135, 2015
ruaok
sorry if someone has been pining for a new feature to include in the fall, but we need a collective breather to focus on some of the community issues.
2015-07-20 20105, 2015
