I have a guess as to what it could be.

ok, I'll do it. Is "MusicBrainz Server" the right category?

yes

I'm going to get some lunch. BRB

hm, finding whether the old label was changed by a merge or a release event edit won't be that easy

well, I noticed the reverse today too - a release that was changing from album to live didn't have the type edit fail 4 days after the add edit for the release failed (dupe)

would pointing lables in event edits to mbids, instead of label rowids, avoid the problem?

btw: Chopin fans, http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/CSGStandard/Chopin JS Bach fans: http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/CSGStandard/JSBach

anybody (in particular Kerensky97_work) know if http://musicbrainz.org/release/d3d252dd-f868-4f... is correct? In particular, should it really be Japanese/Latin, and is it really single/official or should it be a pseudo-release?

(It looks like a transliterated album to me)

Kerensky97_work: Also, it looks like your album annotations on that artist should be moved into release events.

I've been in the process of moving alot of those annotations into the release events. The label system wasn't in place when I did it.

Yeah that one is a pseudo-release.

hi

1. チャンス of LOVE 2.夏 3.チャンス of LOVE (Instrumental)

hi

Kerensky97_work: I kind of figured that was the case, about the annotations.

The association between the specific releases and the specific ASIN is useful too though

True, but it brings up the question about adding multiple ASINS to one release. It's not very often a profile has more than one ASIN linked to it. I notice it happens more often now but I don't know what everybodies opinion is about that.

I don't see a problem with adding multiple ASINs to one release

if they're the same anyway

as in that case, I believe

I'd actually like to see disc IDs linked to the releases as well, though

So -- japanese/latin or English/latin on that release?

"Chance of love" is english and on there twice

but "Natsu" is Japanese and on there once.

japanese/latin , "natsu" is summer in japanese (I think)

If it's a Japanese artist I leave it as Japanese even if only one of the tracks is in Japanese. It makes more of a difference if it's involving Kanji though; otherwise people are a little confused when they end up with songs in an encoding their player doesn't accept.

What's "チャンス"

Cha n su

ah

Most Katakana script is adopted words. Figuring out what word it represents is kind of like a game.

Nod

A game which I enjoy

(but am not very good at)

Me too, unless it's a foreign word I wouldn't know either way. Then I spend forever trying to figure out why it doesn't match any English word I know. :P

hehe

Hola

I'm slowly learning the characters and can sound it out myself now. Before I always used this link to cheat. http://nihongo.j-talk.com/parser/index.php

does anyone know what encoding scheme genpuid uses for its output?

Something fail. ¬_¬

can't you tell it to use xml?

she.. uh hi

howdy :)

probably not the best place to ask, but.. anyone know where/how to report typos/mistakes in the MusicDNS database?

melon kinenbi :D

Kerensky97_work: do you know what a ホッチキス is without looking it up?

Looks like little dancing men to me.

I forgot this one "ホッ"

ホッchikisu

fuuchikisu?

fooshikisu?

:p

Fujitsu.

A vinyl vs. cd Q; this CD can't match only 1 vinyl? http://musicbrainz.org/show/release/?releaseid=...

Ilona Mitrecey. <3

UN MONDE PARFAIT.

\o/

I had to look it up. ホッチキス = Stapler?!? What language did they take that from?

uh maube its the japanese word for it :p

stiftemaskin

I belive you have my ホッチキス

I guess so, and it's just a masculine word.

CatCat: :)

It's stapler in the same way that "kleenex" is tissue and "hoover" is vacuum cleaner

Quality version, CatCat.

ホッチキス is actually "Hotchkiss" -- a brand of stapler and other mechanical stuff

Ahhh.

Mm, the new stable foobar is out, for anyone who missed it.

I like the sound of the "New Default User Interface", my gripe with the old one was needing to configure it to have basic functionalities built into WMP and iTunes by default.

natta!

mo mo

http://www.geocities.com/ResearchTriangle/Node/... is that... real?

hehe, Christian Software Public License

"Optionally disable logins on Sunday, the day of rest" :)

"Login screen has full text to Lord's Prayer and Pledge of Allegiance, with Christian and American symbols Provide alternate screens for non-Americans, perhaps"

I like how it's a "perhaps"

What I wanna know is, what do they do with the... daemons...

XD

Kerensky97_work: apparently my last japanese teacher didn't realise it wasn't an english word and confused everyone by asking for a hotchkiss :)

they kill them!

nikki: That would be interesting :)

qmail replaces sendmail as the standard MTA (sendmail was written by a prominent homosexual)

Cheezus...

luks: but kill is disabled!

oh :)

"Also, we are seriously considering changing some fundamental OS features. The idea would be that function calls and features suggesting evil and otherwise pagan ideas would be changed: abort(3) kill(1) references to "daemon" "

If you can't abort a program does that mean all programs are carried to term? Wouldn't that be a huge drain on resources and memory?

I think Ubuntu - I was gonna try Fedora, but all the distro wizard chooser things suggest Ubuntu

And I don't think Gentoo is gonna work, as much as I like the concept, I always seem to give up maintaining it :P

which sorta defeated the whole point

<shill>go with fedora!</shill>

I think I couldn't use anything without apt-get anymore

fedora actually has apt-get if you want it now

RRRRRRRAAAAAARRRRRRRRWWWRRRRRRR IM CUMMMINN

ojnkpjg: shill?

i work at redhat

:)

The more important question is, do you WEAR a red hat?

I'm getting Ubuntu to run in VMWare on my mac though (too risky to repartition without the OSX cds to hand - they're at uni)

you imitate christ? blasphemy!

Don't worry, Jesux version of Amarok has a filter that will block that song from playing.

luks_: will your little side project experiment include cherrypy/mako?

rob: I've gotta ask.. what are your thoughts on the discussion on the list?

Hair Metal Python???

aCiD2: I am composing my thoughts as we speak.

sit tight.

Excellent stuff :)

NP: Warrant ~ Cherry Pie [from "Cherry Pie" (1990)]

ruaok: most likely yes

sweet.

I like option #4.

with the staged rewrite. use both codebases in parallel.

(that was my short answer) :)

why just cherrypy and not turbogears?

because turbogears without orm is basically just cherrypy :)

or pylons in tg2

olo

sigh.
