        You're doing good work, newbie contributers!

        Also fixed a bunch of security things. Now we're pretty clean apart from the IRC bot and the lobes CSS theme (which is getting to a ripe old age anyway, and is on the way out)

        And finally, on a personal note, I'm sad to say my grandma passed away on Friday. I'll be mostly off comms for the next couple of weeks, in Paris with the family and away from computer.

        take care, monkey!
      • 2023-01-23 02343, 2023

      • mayhem
        unsurprisingly, last week I worked on docs aside the background tasks.
      • 2023-01-23 02301, 2023

      • mayhem
        I finally wrote docs for troi, which took quite some time, but felt good to get done.
      • 2023-01-23 02326, 2023

      • mayhem
        and then I spent a day updating the "loss of executive director" document, updating it for changes in the last year.
      • 2023-01-23 02345, 2023

      • mayhem
        of which there were quite a lot -- so I am very grateful for the docsprint, which keeps this doc updated.
      • 2023-01-23 02306, 2023

      • mayhem
        but, I am looking forward to getting back to technical work!

      • 2023-01-23 02350, 2023

      • alastairp
        last week was docweek for me too, I updated the summer of code part of the wiki, filling in the projects that we've done over the last 3-4 years which were missing

      • Thuraabtech has quit
      • 2023-01-23 02346, 2023

      • alastairp
        also had some interesting initial discussions with recent SoC students about how the docs could be updated to be clearer, there was some opinions that the most important things aren't front and center and so could be moved around a bit
      • 2023-01-23 02344, 2023

      • alastairp
        as reosarevok said, I did some prototypes of some MusicBrainz API docs with swagger. With yvanzo we had a quick video call to teach him some knowledge about how to use the solr admin to debug search queries, which he wrote up as some docs
      • 2023-01-23 02355, 2023

      • reosarevok
        Nice and understandable docs!
      • 2023-01-23 02315, 2023

      • alastairp
        I also started to review mayhem's troi docs, and started some additional sysadmin docs around botbot
      • 2023-01-23 02320, 2023

      • KassOtsimine
        :D
      • 2023-01-23 02301, 2023

      • alastairp
        I also wanted to write down something concrete about our future CB plans (using it as API-only and putting frontends on MB/LB/BB), but didin't get as far on that as I wanted to
      • 2023-01-23 02309, 2023

      • alastairp
        yvanzo: next?
      • 2023-01-23 02317, 2023

      • yvanzo
        sure!
      • 2023-01-23 02352, 2023

      • alastairp
        oh, with lucifer we finally debugged the final listenbrainz metadata dumps, which are now working and just pending being added to cron for periodic dumps
      • 2023-01-23 02347, 2023

      • yvanzo
        For the Docsprint, beyond the Solr debug session mentioned by alastairp (which allowed to identify two bugs at least)...
      • 2023-01-23 02355, 2023

      • yvanzo
        I reviewed the all three last test documentation improvements by reosarevok from last year.
      • 2023-01-23 02311, 2023

      • yvanzo
        And finally pursued a documentation about external links handling in MusicBrainz Server.
      • 2023-01-23 02321, 2023

      • yvanzo
        (Still running after that one...)
      • 2023-01-23 02340, 2023

      • yvanzo
        Apart from the Docsprint, I investigated Sentry setup for mobile apps’ support by akshaaatt.
      • 2023-01-23 02300, 2023

      • akshaaatt
        Thanks for that yvanzo!
      • 2023-01-23 02305, 2023

      • yvanzo
        Fixed an automation bug that was closing SEC tickets without setting resolution.
      • 2023-01-23 02334, 2023

      • yvanzo
        That issue had been spotted by monkey who has been very active about these.
      • 2023-01-23 02344, 2023

      • yvanzo
        Fin. Go akshaaatt!

        Grateful to jasje for contributing loads of PRs!
      • 2023-01-23 02323, 2023

      • akshaaatt
        We have been discussing roadmaps and how we want more and more tests for the app.

        beginning of last week, i worked on prototyping timezone support for listens. that brought up some issues leading to discussion on how to display timestamps to users on listens page etc.
      • 2023-01-23 02354, 2023

      • lucifer
        i had hoped to work on docs after that but got in busy IRL so couldn't accompolish much on that front. hope to make up for it by writing more docs in upcoming weeks.
      • 2023-01-23 02301, 2023

        nothing to report this week for me :)

        last week I spent time writing some "React state management" docs to basically detail the strategy I used to manage state in the relationship editor, which we can use in future projects (e.g. other entity edit forms)

        I also continued taking in feedback on MBS-11847 and updated test.mb with various fixes and improvements that people have suggested. yet more suggestions have popped up so I'll continue with that this week then :)

        but I've still been trying my best to work on an updated IRC doc (going pretty well so far!), not to mention the MLHD project that I have been slacking on too much 💀.

      • Pratha-Fish
        Also since we are discussing about updating the Wiki, I'd like to introduce you to https://gohugo.io. It's not a wiki replacement, but it's pretty fantastic for generating super easy-to-maintain documentation sites with Markdown files. I used it recently to build my portfolio site, and I can vouch that it's pretty epic and ez to maintain... iirc a lot of smaller projects have been using it to build their documentation
      • 2023-01-23 02307, 2023

      • Pratha-Fish
        sites too :D
      • 2023-01-23 02332, 2023

      • Pratha-Fish
        P.S. alastairp sorry for not being very active recently with the MLHD project. Unskippable things just keep popping up. Also, I understand you'd be taking a break from MetaBrainz related activities starting from February, so me slacking off doesn't help with the project timeline either. Super apologies for that. 🥲

        on a personal note, the lazy professor has asked me to write and conduct practical sessions for our Hadoop lab sessions, which makes the time constraints worse but as an upside, I'll soon be able to learn and help around with parallel processing-related stuff. lucifer: if you find any beginner-friendly issues related to hadoop/spark, I'd really be happy to try and help and learn :)

        I spent some time looking over the Discourse 3.0 changes and will be attending a webinar tomorrow about this update too, but it mostly seems fine except for a new chat feature which we’ll probably want off to begin with. Maybe it will be able to integrate it with IRC chat eventually, but we’ll see.

        Other than that: dealing with spam, editor reports, forum flags, peeking around IRC and forums, etc.

        And no sign of yellowhatpro or jasje, so I guess this wraps up reviews.

        mayhem: does the fresh releases ‘relevance’ score divide up into /5 stars nicely? Shall I go with that? I like the thought of displaying it (or toggling it) on the ‘all’ view as well, because why not
