I'll guess I'll reinstate the disambig. and add the '28 work and move the premiere there.

Sure. I'd still mention it in his original change, so that he knows (in case he needs to change something else)

I found musicbrainz in the GSoC partners list and I'd like to collabore with the project. Is there any interesting (and unclaimed) task or feature I could help with?
2015-03-16 07506, 2015
reosarevok
Well, people have shown interest on multiple things, but the proposal period starts today so we don't know which of them will actually submit a proposal :)
(and/or if you have an amazing idea not in the page)

This AcousticBrainz project looks interesting, and I see that you're working with UPF researchers (UPF is next to my place, I could disturb them all the time hehe)

Well, I'd say take a look at acousticbrainz, think about what you feel would be interesting *and* doable for you
2015-03-16 07508, 2015

If there's something that you feel is good enough for a GSoC, talk to ruaok or alastairp in #musicbrainz-devel when they're around and see if they agree
2015-03-16 07510, 2015

Do you think it's complex?

reosarevok knows nothing at all about the topic - for me it's super-complex :D

You can always also send an email to the development list with a few short ideas that you think of and ask if people feel they'd be useful and then pick one

Basically, we are all ultra-busy, so in order to be able to finish GSoC a student would need quite a bit of initiative

I've never participated in an open source project, so I don't really know how is the follow up and decision making done.

Well, there's a bit of "look at the list of bugs and suggestions and fix something" (http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/) and a bit of "this is important and we should do it soon"

For volunteers, more of the former, for paid developers, more of the latter
Are there paid developers? I'm a big ignorant haha

Yes, the MetaBrainz foundation employs two full-time developers.

is there a way to export/import Picard settings? (from a Windows to *nix)
2015-03-16 07552, 2015
Majandi
that's interesting
2015-03-16 07539, 2015
Mineo
_5moufl: no, the settings are stored in the registry on windows and in a file on other operating systems. unless this is a process you have to do often, it's probably faster to save all the format strings to a text file, manually copy them into the new picard instance and clicking through all the other settings than trying to find a way to automate the conversion

Majandi: Also, did you see the "Getting started" page yet?
Thing is, it's effectively a compilation of differents arias from Verdi. But in the same time, it was recorded in one time, by the same orchestra/conductor/singers
2015-03-16 07505, 2015
MacManiac
What could be the rule of thumbs in this cases ? Thanks !
2015-03-16 07529, 2015
Mineo
in this case it's: read the guideline :) https://beta.musicbrainz.org/doc/Release_Group/Ty… covers exactly that case: "The MusicBrainz project does not generally consider the following to be compilations: [...] a classical release containing new recordings of a classical artists work."
2015-03-16 07502, 2015
CallerNo6
MacManiac, my rule of thumb is that in classical, it's really only a compilation if it's like "100 great overtures!"

Thanks :) Mineo, note the work (singular) in this guideline! In this case (new recordings of several classical works), it was in my understanding not so clear.
2015-03-16 07544, 2015
MacManiac
But clearly i'll remove the compilation tag for this release, thank you both
2015-03-16 07541, 2015
Mineo
but if you insist on the singular work, you'd only ever have classical non-compilation releases with exactly one track on them :)

Yeah sure, except if you consider a whole opera (for instance) as a single work with parts. But I agree with your point of view :)

MacManiac: The singular work there is likely a typo that's never been corrected.

The idea of when a classical release is a comp could use some rethinking anyway. Lots of recordings are reshuffled/repackaged over the years. I don't consider those to be compilations.
MacManiac: I *think* that's supposed to mean "the work of a classical artist" rather than a work in the composition sense (and that it predates us having works)
2015-03-16 07508, 2015
reosarevok
It's also horribly written, so I'll change it anyway :p
2015-03-16 07538, 2015

CallerNo6: isn't that "* a reissue of an album, even if it includes bonus tracks."?
2015-03-16 07557, 2015
reosarevok
(I guess in some cases they take one work from two different albums and just package them together)
