1) I have been working towards KMM and https://kotlinlang.org/docs/mobile/integrate-in-e… has a good guide for the setup changes. Since I am preparing the documentation for the project, if we have confirmation regarding the future of the app regarding this, it would be great and could save us resources.

With your upcoming plans of fastlane as well to the app, I think we are making ground breaking changes to the structure as is and the documentation at this point of time would be really valuable. So a confirmation from your side and the team on whether we want to adopt to KMM for future purposes, would be a good deciding factor right now. No hurry though, I just wanted to bring this up.

2) I have some Search UX designs which I wanted to discuss. I'll have a few mockups ready by Monday and just wanted to know whether you wanted to mention any specifics regarding it.
[musicbrainz-server] 14mwiencek merged pull request #2166 (03master…MBS-11776): MBS-11776: Readd "loading-message" class to the medium loading message https://github.com/metabrainz/musicbrainz-server/…
akshaaatt[m]: i don't think KMM is a priority. there aren't really any plans for an iOS app and i don't think its worth it if we can't get the tagger to work on iOS.

<lucifer "akshaaatt: i don't think KMM is "> That is actually a good point. Right

2021-07-10 19140, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
you remember lucifer how I had you make me testable versions at first :D
2021-07-10 19126, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
will the new thing have its own "place" thing? it'd probably be smarter to have its own namespace so not ot override the other, olderapp
2021-07-10 19159, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
<ZaphodBeeblebrox "ah, about that mb android app, i"> Hi ZaphodBeeblebrox ! We are in the process of finalizing the app before we do the latest release. So probably a week or so from now, we could have it available!
2021-07-10 19151, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
probably a good idea to have some time in for updates/usertests/feedback etcetre
2021-07-10 19155, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
etcetra*
2021-07-10 19135, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
also, if you cna akshaaatt[m]: don't use the matrix reply feature unless you're actually replying to an older con ersation
Thanks for the tip! Will take care moving forward 😃
2021-07-10 19135, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox

2021-07-10 19146, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
and thanks for working on the mobile app!
2021-07-10 19129, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
I really wish we coulda called it "Data" or similar to keep the StarTrex theming (riker, troi,geordi, Picard!)
2021-07-10 19138, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
since it's an Android App!
2021-07-10 19144, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
but people where dead agaisnt it :/
2021-07-10 19105, 2021

<ZaphodBeeblebrox "and thanks for working on the mo"> The pleasure is all mine.
2021-07-10 19123, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
Oh my! I was just reading this. Force of habits!
2021-07-10 19129, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
nh you're doing it again :P
2021-07-10 19157, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
Maybe I'll ditch matrix for a while then. Need to learn it the hard way haha!
2021-07-10 19157, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
hah :D
2021-07-10 19117, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
"Data" as in the MB app?
2021-07-10 19120, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
that's not necessary though, if matrix works for you
2021-07-10 19130, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
Data as in Lt Commander Data
2021-07-10 19100, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
since all our other mb-enabled things are called after StarTrek characters
2021-07-10 19101, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
Sounds interesting
2021-07-10 19113, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox

2021-07-10 19104, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
Wow. Pretty cool!
2021-07-10 19112, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
in desktop picard it doesn't say "ok" in dialogue boxes but "make it so!" since that's what Jan-luc would say
2021-07-10 19127, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
Oh I've noticed this!
2021-07-10 19137, 2021

2021-07-10 19142, 2021

It's all making sense now
2021-07-10 19110, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
ST is getting on a bit. you have to explain it to you young'uns
2021-07-10 19123, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox

2021-07-10 19113, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox

Looking at the way things have progressed and how you people have managed it, is so fascinating!
2021-07-10 19106, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox

2021-07-10 19119, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox

2021-07-10 19138, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox

2021-07-10 19151, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
I really liked bookbrainz and find it super amazing!
2021-07-10 19156, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
I'm up for it if the BB Android app is to be started!
2021-07-10 19133, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
Maybe for next year's GSoC we can add some ideas to the list and focus on people who would like to work on them
2021-07-10 19138, 2021
akshaaatt[m]
For now I think my primary focus is towards MB because I have a deep connection with it and in my mind I see some great stuff happening here, something which I can really contribute towards!
2021-07-10 19135, 2021
ZaphodBeeblebrox
deffinitly
2021-07-10 19136, 2021
