I'm not sure what it's meant to be :/
2005-01-05 00524, 2005
-
ruaok
Try something like this:
2005-01-05 00507, 2005
-
ruaok
artist: 'Foo' Resolution: A Manchester, UK based funk band.
2005-01-05 00532, 2005
-
ruaok
another artist: 'Foo' Resolution: A paraguayan salsa band
2005-01-05 00555, 2005
-
cikkolata
ah
2005-01-05 00500, 2005
-
ruaok
just a small quip of info that distinguish the bands in case of conflict.
2005-01-05 00515, 2005
-
ruaok
the name 'resolution' needs to be reworked.
2005-01-05 00530, 2005
-
ruaok
qualifier, discriminator have been suggested.
2005-01-05 00532, 2005
-
cikkolata
wouldn't it make more sense to only ask for that if the artist already exists?
2005-01-05 00558, 2005
-
ruaok
I would agree, but I think that might be a bit more work.
2005-01-05 00507, 2005
-
ruaok
and how will you know that for 'add artist'?
2005-01-05 00538, 2005
-
cikkolata
it gives me a page saying it already exists... so it must know
2005-01-05 00548, 2005
-
ruaok
I guess we could bump the user back to the page if they entered an artist name that conflicts and then show the resolution fields.
2005-01-05 00554, 2005
-
ruaok
:-)
2005-01-05 00528, 2005
-
ruaok
can you do me a favor and collect your suggestions in an email and send it to me?
2005-01-05 00535, 2005
-
cikkolata
ok
2005-01-05 00543, 2005
-
ruaok
or better yet, fix things and send me a patch. :)

2005-01-05 00511, 2005
-
cikkolata
if I don't get lost in the code
2005-01-05 00528, 2005
-
cikkolata
... I gave it a resolution and it still tells me it already exists
2005-01-05 00503, 2005
-
ruaok
Heh.
2005-01-05 00513, 2005
-
ruaok
Yeah, I've found some other rough edges with the feature.
2005-01-05 00525, 2005
-
ruaok
like not being able to erase a resolution field
2005-01-05 00528, 2005
-
ruaok
(see portishead)
2005-01-05 00542, 2005
-
ruaok
once AR remove is done I'll look into those problems.
2005-01-05 00504, 2005
-
cikkolata
I think the Type: Group thing would look nicer as a litle icon thing of one person or several people (group)
2005-01-05 00559, 2005
-
ruaok
yup.
2005-01-05 00509, 2005
-
cikkolata
I'd offer to make icon things, but they'd suck.
2005-01-05 00540, 2005

ruaok
don redman is looking into it.
2005-01-05 00507, 2005

-
cikkolata
bah
2005-01-05 00549, 2005
-
cikkolata
I added a resolution for the existing one and it still tells me it already exists
2005-01-05 00516, 2005
-
DJKC
cikkolata: in and out, but here at the moment
2005-01-05 00523, 2005

I was wondering if you knew anything about the other earth
2005-01-05 00514, 2005

you realize how mystical that sounds? ^^;
2005-01-05 00534, 2005

anyway,. I'm only vaguely familiar with the Japanese one and know nothing about the other one(s)

feb.
2005-01-05 00553, 2005
-
ruaok
AR should be rolled out before then.
2005-01-05 00504, 2005
-
ruaok
the metabrainz site needs to be live and complete before then.
2005-01-05 00512, 2005
-
ruaok
at right around then.
2005-01-05 00524, 2005
-
djce
is the meb site basically static?
2005-01-05 00528, 2005
-
ruaok
I'm shooting to have a near final version of AR on
test.mb.org come monday.
2005-01-05 00558, 2005
-
ruaok
meb. no. its mostly a copy of mb, but all the perl modules live in MetaBrainz::Server and no global modules.
2005-01-05 00507, 2005
-
ruaok
its coexisting on the test without problems.
2005-01-05 00535, 2005
-
ruaok
the two sites will be very similar to each other and thus the internal structure is near identical.
2005-01-05 00549, 2005
-
ruaok
most of the hard work for meb is done. more static content is required.
2005-01-05 00556, 2005
-
ruaok
but donation tracking is working and debugged.
2005-01-05 00515, 2005

hosting, hardware, development.
2005-01-05 00517, 2005

we're a user supported charity, really.
2005-01-05 00523, 2005

2005-01-05 00523, 2005

at least now we are.
