#musicbrainz

it is exceedingly quiet here tonight

Nyght: can you clarify "community supporters"

support in code? docs? moderations? votes? money? sexual favors? chocolate?

;) I don't want to clarify. I want it general and as broad as you feel it should be.

again, if there's clarification it leads to a hierarchy that I don't think is perhaps best.

agreed - whilst programmers and developers are crucial, so are the foot soldiers

Just, a generalized highlight of those that aren't in the light enough, and should have a bit of light shone their way. Currently I have ruaok, luks, g0llum, donredman, yalaforge, shepard, and countless others that built the database, refine it and help make it a great place to visit and tweak.

but, I wanted to make a quick list of those people in this "summary" of the chat. Sorta highlight, and go on to the subject at hand. (and I don't want to leave anyone in specific out due to lack of knowledge on my part!)

Night all

night muz

rest well

night muz - sleep well

Thanks Beth, and Joan

nyght - don't forget nikki

I was thinking strongly of nikki, especially for her chocolate bribes and multi lingual abilities, and aesmodai? seems to work hand in hand with her

not positive on the spelling of that irc name's spelling.

Nyght: dave evans, who has written tons of code and is playing a major role on keeping our servers running needs to be added.

I don't currently know who sexual favors from from, save for my whippings. :D

reference the top moderators list, too, please.

thank you, yes, exactly, that type of thing I don't know about!

Nyght: that would be my GF. :-)

then you need mudcrow and teleguise

here is anohter thought I've had, but lacked the time for it: a thank you blog

there are countless people that the MB community doesn't know about.

our board of directors.

need me for what?

our lawyers.

That's sorta very minorly what this is.. and .. well, I can send it to you in email if you want a brief glimpse into it.

or, whatnot

people who have scavenged hardward for us.

a top moderator mudcrow

and sorry.. I can't bring myself to thank the lawyers!

:D

Nyght: we have cool lawyers on our side.

lawyers - bah

I used to think that too.

no such thing as a cool lawyer

and if there is, they are an endangered species

But Dan Appleman, Fred von Lohmann, Randy Heinig are cool people who have put in serious hours for MB.

First of all, I would like to take the time to say thanks to ruaok, luks, g0llum, donredman, yalaforge, dave evans, shepard, teragon, nikki, the board of directors and those on the top moderators list (both voters and editors) as well as countless others that built the database, refine it and help make it a great place to visit and tweak.

Nyght: Tarragon

thanks!

don't forget inhouse

for the board, link to: http://metabrainz.org/about/

here is a list of people that is seriously out of date:

okay, but can I insert html in the blog?

That page should go away and be replaced by the thank you blog.

Nyght: yes!

even as a response?

I'm not blog flagged.. or whatever that is.

huh?

you want posting privs on the blog?

I'll give you those.

If you want to give me those.

I need to add wolfsong, might as well add you at the same time.

Don made an opening post for me to do the overview on

pmsg me a login/passwd and I'll do it

:) okay, but as I said before, I can and will say shut the f--- up, if I get too heated.

you are not nearly heated enough for that yet

no, and I try to walk into irc and get a more focal point before doing that.. but, I'm highly protective of people I feel are being snapped out at.

that's when my hackles raise

what time is it where you are?

6:30

in the evening

dinnertime, but the kiddos are being patient. :D

\yes

1.33 a.m. on the 5th May here

so, that is why you are always just about to go to bed when I am getting up in the morning

ouch, you're past pumpkin time. Do you ahve tomorrow off?

yes, and if I can sleep, I do. ;)

no - but I work voluntarily for our local council

when Jim and I got married in 2001 he insisted I gave us work, but it was driving me crazy sitting at home so now I sit on the Board of Directors for our local authority

gave up

well that's good for getting you out of the house and active. :)

I know it drives me crazy to work at the house and live here too.

I thought it would be just one meeting a month - it has turned into about 10 - but as you say it keeps your mind active. I think that's why I came on here too. At times it seems like being at work.

Ok, time for me to go home.

back tomorrow, regular bat channel!

poof!

nighr ruaok

I think it is probably time to go to bed and for you to feed the kids.

night beth

sorry I missed you ruaok and Joan, rest well!

is a solo project a "group" or a "person"? does "person" imply a real name of the performer?

like, obviously "shania twain" is a person, but what about "pink"?

that's still "up in arms" in a lot of ways

oh good. person it is then :p

I feel they still fall under "person" others feel they fall under "group". Often times I feel it's best to leave them uncatagorized, others disagree

person

depends

just sounds silly when you know that there's just one guy who plays/records/performs. like, there's NO ONE else involved

exactly mudcrow, it's a very debatable circumstance and very dependant on the fans, and the presentation.

usually it's best to put Pink is a performance name for "person"

Duretti Column is one person, but could be described as a group as he uses guest muscians, same for current 93

it's bad, because person has a birthdate, and the person behind "pink" was born a lot earlier than their group Pink

I'm beginning to think we have another signifyer.. person, group, one man show with guests during live performances. :D

or, elitest snob

or. debutante

or.. yeah, you get the idea. :D

Nick Cave solo shows are billed as solo shows, yet he always has other musicians playing with him (usually The Dirty Three)

poor nikki

I tossed and turned for an hour and a half

I feel asleep earlier this evening and i'm now wide awake :(

nikki, they suggest only remaining in bed for fifteen minutes, or a half an hour. So your body knows you mean to sleep when you lay down. (just a future suggestion for you from an insomniac. :D )

凶暴患者病棟 could someone translate please

squiggle squiggle blob blob squiggle

thanks inhouse :)

box box box. 6 of them in a row mudcrow

;)

do you have an idea of what it's to signify?

what language I mean

japanese

I have atrocious patient ward

http://gb.waiyu.org:9000/?cjk=%D0%D7%B1%A9%BB%B... <- translation from chinese :o

thanks

chinese?

I don't know if it's japanese or chinese

could be either, I guess

Violent Ward possibly?

chinese I got violent patient ward, or something, I'd have to look again.

violent patient disease tung

for chinese

and just patient ward for korean

it's not korean

so.. no clue.. those are from a beta conversion tool

bleh

I feel depressed

it's supposed to help!

not in this case :(

my cat just bit me..

:(

Mmm, bright lights all around and always stand so they'll have the sun in their shots. ;)
