Unsure what else you mean, but we don't really have a lot of built stuff for it yet :) Just what you can see on the site

ruchiranga: It's always better to display a mock-up than describing it using text only. Text is far too ambigious.

yes sure i will do a mock-up too :)

Freso: agreed, but it's good to have text too because a mockup won't show enough of how stuff actually works. Unless you actually code it all up first and then it's more an alpha than a mockup :D

thanks reosarevok .

krisalpha: Did you see https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Development/Summer... yet?

I will try to code and make a draft web page too but given the time constraint i will make some image mock-up for the time being since the proposal is a draft one :)

If you follow the links from the pages that are linked there, you will be able to find all the code repositories we use.

ruchiranga: Sounds reasonable. :)

what would be fun, a random importer for discogs :3

it displays a random release in discogs which isn't yet in MB and says "IMPORT ME NOW TO MAKE MB BETTER" :>

Can't you do "Random" on Discogs and then import that?

and one more thing, the mentors for the project I am interested in were mentioned as "nikki?, bitmap?" how can I contact them?

STalKer-X_c: geordi

laforge?

or does the "?" mark mean they are not assigned as mentors yet?

ruchiranga: No one has been assigned as mentors yet.

(And no one will be assigned either until we've decided which projects to go for.)

reosarevok ,, which events did you create earlier ?? even in /root there are many folders,,, which one to look for

krisalpha: isn't there an "event" one?

ruchiranga: both of them are on the devel list anyway so they'd see your mail - if you want to contact them directly and they're not in here, I think both use the same name for their MB account so you can message them through it

But bitmap at least is available both here and in #musicbrainz-devel - however, don't ping him unless it really is something only a potential mentor can answer. MusicBrainz is a big community, and if the wider community disapproves or approves of something, chances are that whatever mentor you end up with will as well.

Also what reosarevok_ said.

fesco, oh i see.. so mentors would be assigned only after the students have been selected?

yes,, it is there and in /lib ??

in lib the stuff should be inside /controller, /data and /entity, and also say event or similar :)

ruchiranga: they're generally assigned when assigning projects I think more than specifically students, but since we won't know what projects to take until we know what students to take... :)

Anyway, it's very likely that whoever of the two gets chosen officially, both will have some involvement in it (and also other people here)

(if this project gets picked that is)

thanks

reosarevok_, i see thanks for the info :)

Basically, that project is very user-facing

So mostly everyone will have an opinion :p

Which ones are any good and which ones you can ignore is probably something you'd need to decide for yourself

@seeAlso http://bikeshed.com/

yeah of course :D

you sure do have a long name

hmm, so now we have ructab to go along with reotab? ;)

Freso, blueish-grey, for sure.

http://beta.musicbrainz.org/label/d1ad4e6b-fa1a... phew :<

Leftmost: Naw. Metallic-silver turquoise for sure.

Unacceptable. I find your suggestion offensive.

Please choose something that will go well with the orange bike I plan to get.

CallerNo6, I will choose to get enough paint to paint your bike when we're done.

black

black goes with anything :D

natural camouflage!

Now I can't find my bikeshed at night. Great.

but that will make my bike go slower. everybody knows orange is the fastest color.

i'm too lazy to add the VA releases to MB :<

We'll paint flames on it.

someone motivate me

STalKer-X_c: Go add the VA releases to MB.

i prefer the maxi cd singles

Freso, the concert is for Altan. :)

By the way, cad é "uasc"?

Fish?

Maybe not. :|

Sin "iasc".

Oh, right.

So close!

Oh, wait, "i" is right now to "u" on the keyboard.

That's totally it.

It was definitely a typo, not me misremembering the spelling.

Totally.

Heheh.

>_>

If it helps you to remember it, think of piscis.

If it doesn't help you, don't.

:p

I remember the Portuguese word being similar, but I haven't practised that in too long.

Now that Duolingo has Irish in its mobile version, that's become my go-to language.

Fun fact, Irish lost its p for a while in there, so many words from PIE that have an initial p lost it in Irish.

piscis <-> iasc, pater <-> athair, etc.

Yeah, I did notice that.

Hm. Is that part of the "p-branch/q-branch" nomenclature for the Celtic languages?

(Like Scots Gaelic and Irish being p-branch and Welsh and Bretonic being q-branch or something like that. It's been too long since I last looked this stuff up.)

That's actually something slightly different. One sec.

So the deal there is that Indo-European had a /kʷ/ (labialized velar) sound, which is retained in Latin in words like quinque. However, the Celtic languages simplified the sound and split along how. P-Celtic languages like the Brythonic languages took the labial aspect, whereas Q-Celtic languages like the Goidelic languages took the velar aspect.

So "quinque"'s equivalent in Irish is cúig and in Welsh is pump.

Also, Irish "ceann" is from the same root as Welsh "pen".

No idea what the root was there or whether it has a cognate in Latin.

What does it mean, ceann/pen?

I thought you spoke all the languages!

chirlu`: he's an actor, I think :p

(It's "head" according to my Irish-English dictionary.)

(Because yes, I do have one such physical thing, even if I don't have a Portuguese one... :|)

Yes, Freso is right.

\o/

I mean, "of course2.

*".

The word for head is caput in any case.

Hm. Makes you wonder.

And people say Latin is a dead language...

kaputt?

hi, i set up a local musicbrainz mirror but tagging new music via beet and musicbrainz is extremely slow(ca. 5 min for one album). Do you have any hints to speed up the search?

mooY: Are you actually using your local server?

yes, i see an io load of 76.11 M/s for postgres: musicbrainz musicbrainz_db [local] SELECT

mooY: Have you removed/up'd the requests-per-second limit in the beets config?

i set it to 20 request a second

Alright.

Then I'm out of ideas.

hmm :/

#musicbrainz-devel

?

just wanted something to click on

ok

...

?

You do know you can just write /join instead, right :p

Not that I mind or anything, but it seems like less effort

win user? :)

pah

i'm not a noob ;p

hehe

welcome to the new musicbrainz porn music database :/

What's with the ":/"?

crazy music

Does MB feel slow for anyone else right now?

(NSFW if you follow the video link...)

does this mean pornhub has 1.7 billion videos? :D

hmm, MB does not feel any slower than before today

STalKer-X_c: 1.7 billion videos? Why?

because the video key is a number with 10 digits :D

Oh. No clue.

But there is http://www.pornhub.com/win/songsearch if you feel like adding some more.

they did really produce porn videos for songs? :p

Did you follow the link?

Sure, I was asking STalKer-X_c since their question indicated that they hadn't.

nope i have not :D

(That page is fairly SFW anyway, at least if you have ad block filters worth anything.)

now he must earn money like a slut does. ok :>
