or something like that.

although to be honest, I'd expect the edition stuff to mostly go in comments

flamingspinach: the only option now if you want to keep using Picard is http://musicbrainz.uservoice.com/forums/12526/s...

yeah, depends on how clearly it is part of the title. I agree it would usually go in the comments.

hmm...

ah, http://musicbrainz.org/release-group/5bd56af7-2...

hm, not that clear on the cover images.

I can only really think of ones where the same thing has been released with multiple titles

nikki: that'd be fine

http://musicbrainz.org/show/edit/?editid=14443970 is one I found earlier, but since it's the same tracklist, we don't have two releases yet

that'd work

warp: http://musicbrainz.org/release-group/55ffda76-a...

Of course I don't know what you were looking for exactly 8) Then there's stuff such as http://musicbrainz.org/release-group/d6807761-b... which has regular and Gold version with some added tracks.

warp: there's also probably at least a half dozen in Kraftwerk

ok

ESTRAGON: Charming spot. Inspiring prospects. Let's go.

VLADIMIR: We can't.

ESTRAGON: Why not?

VLADIMIR: We're waiting for Godot.

ESTRAGON: Ah! You're sure it was here?

VLADIMIR: What?

ESTRAGON: That we were to wait.

VLADIMIR: What are you insinuating? That we've come to the wrong place?

ESTRAGON: He should be here.

VLADIMIR: He didn't say for sure he'd come.

ESTRAGON: And if he doesn't come?

VLADIMIR: We'll come back tomorrow.

ESTRAGON: And then the day after tomorrow.

VLADIMIR: Possibly.

ESTRAGON: And so on.

ESTRAGON: Until he comes.

oh hey, it's time for the switchover isn't it

or was, about an hour ago

still 57+ open edits though :<

whoops, haha

flamingspinach: edits get closed in the next hour or so

warp: i'm having a big autechre phase atm :)

I'm finally enjoying Quaristrice and Oversteps

ocharles: haha, that stuff takes some time indeed.

you just have to give a listen with your concentration

murdos: new data on ngs.mb

murdos: http://ngs.musicbrainz.org/artist/2334787c-a3d6... see Edit #12322359 - I think this means the artist credit stuff has worked?

nikki, warp, reosarevok, eyes from you would be great as well

murdos_: ping to this account name too

T-9 http://www.ustream.tv/nasahdtv

BBQ

I'd love to be able to see clueless user's reactions as they browse to musicbrainz.org and see the new site.

navap_: you'll see them

Well, read them

"WAT IZ DAT OLD MB IZ BETTA"

My experience is that people will bitch unceasingly for a little while, until they settle down and see it's actually an improvement.

Heh, I dunno about that. I actually think the first impression is going to be a pretty good one

Which is good, because that gives us the time to fix the unfinished / unstable things during the period in which they would be complaining anyway

navap_, I'm basing my theory on seeing what happened with the GNOME 3 release, and the knowledge that people don't like change.

I'd like to go back and find the first instance of an edit note that says, "Wait 'til NGS" or the equivalent.

I can grep moderation_note_closed if you like :P

Leftmost: Of course, but come on, have you seen our current home page? :)

navap_, I still think there'll be a Reluctant Switchers faction. :P

lol

Haha

navap_: old last.fm was fugly and people still complained

Really? Hmm, I don't remember the old site now.

caller_6: now grepping 649mb of edit notes :P

Time heals everything

except probably a fear of death :P

time probably just makes that worse

Haha

nikki: 649mb of notes?

And 4.8 gb of edits?

yep

How big the edits are? :o

Not each edit will have a note though

Sadly

http://musicbrainz.org/show/edit/?editid=5431345 seems to be the first instance of "ngs", although I'm sure we had earlier references to schemas that solve everything

oh, the first NGS mention is for an Estonian artist and the last edit before NGS for a release in Spanish

Me likes

that's not the first mention

that just amused me because of the note

where is it? almost here! :D

But you said "seems to be the first instance of ngs"!

:p

I linked two edits...

Oh, I looked at the wrong one :D

:)

Well, I like the Sisters too

It's been ~5 years since the first NGS mention in an edit note. So we've been talking about it for almost half of musicbrainz.org's existence!

and for the other half, we were talking about it under a different name ;)
