        I had a nice week where I continued my work on MB web PR as per the guidance from bitmap and fixed some of my open PRs in LB.
      • Also, I got in touch with around 5 people who are interested in contributing to https://github.com/akshaaatt/musicbrainz-web-next, which is good since they are helping fix some issues and adding to the revamp work by suggesting improved techniques and UI!
      • I am fine with it but have been pushing them to set up MB-server and contribute there as well.
      • My Linux machine crashed 3 days back so I had to wait a while to finish some changes, which I intend to do this week.
      • And yeah, I made 2 Mb android releases which drastically improve our playstore standing! Seems like a lot of new people coming in, excited!
      • That's about it for me. Go mayhem!
      • mayhem
        thanks!
      • Freso
        (People still up: zas, alastairp, yvanzo, Freso – anyone else who wish to give review, let me know ASAP. :))

        last week was spent doing accounting and invoicing and all that nonsense.
      • lucifer
        !m mayhem
      • BrainzBot
        You're doing good work, mayhem!
      • mayhem
        I also spoke with most of the team about raises, there are only 2 left, then I'll be doing new contracts.
      • I also had to deal with some office stuff that took some time.
      • I reviewed some PRs for lucifer as to get him unstuck from this mountain of PRs her hammered out.
      • *he
      • CatQuest
        the mountain of PR's is a hars mistress
      • mayhem
        and today I managed to get pretty far into the "oops, ED dropped off into the ocean, now what?" document. fun stuff.
      • CatQuest
        harsh*
      • mayhem
        fin. go zas
      • zas
        Hey

        You're doing good work, mayhem!

        last week we released 2 versions of Picard, 2.7.2 followed by 2.7.3
      • those should be last 2.7.x (well...)
      • so we focused on preparing upcoming 2.8.x dev cycle, merging pending PRs, reviewing few more, etc...
      • then I battled a bit with crowdsec (I installed it to provide an extra level of protection vs log4j issue initially), but it happens it breaks on upgrades, I had to fix the mess on 2 machines using non default ports for it
      • I guess this will be fixed soon in new packages, but until them, messy
      • apart that, usual upgrades, supervision, edits, patches, bug reports. fin. alastairp ?
      • alastairp
        hi
      • last week as lucifer said we released the PR for user IDs in LB. I also spent a bit of time reviewing some LB prs to unblock lucifer
      • I spent most of my time investigating the current state of the art in BPM recognition to see what options we have to improve the calculation of BPM in AB, I have 6 different algorithms working, and will run them across some collections of music to see how they differ
      • Freso
        (Only yvanzo and myself left for reviews. Last call for others who may wish to give review!)
      • alastairp
        this morning I helped with outlining topics for pythonbrainz documentation. this week I hope to jump in and out of docs as needed, and mostly finish up on this bpm analysis
      • yvanzo: ?
      • yvanzo
        Hi!
      • Last week I got back at reviewing MBS PRs.
      • By the way, beta will be frozen on next Monday.
      • I worked on Weblate with outsidecontext about glossary, git workflow and MB OAuth2 support.
      • I will have a video call with a Weblate maintainer on tomorrow to see what can be done in details.
      • CatQuest
        weblate :o
      • yvanzo
        Finally, I wrote a summary of the discussion we had with zas a month ago about system administration.
      • It includes a few suggestions, some of these can be (or already are) part of the current Doc sprint.
      • It is intended for everyone in the MeB team and mostly covers monitoring systems:
      • Fin. Go Freso!
      • Freso
        🙋
      • Still trying to ween myself off of holidays mode, but I managed to catch up a bit on the forums last week, splitting some topics etc. as well as dealing with some flags and reports.
      • That’s about that from.
      • +me
      • Thank you everyone for your reviews. :)
      • We have one more item on today’s agenda, so…
      • yvanzo: Doc sprint
      • CatQuest
        docunary!
      • yvanzo
        It is just I noticed that some of the tasks being currently listed may require to gather everyone at the same time.
      • When do you want to do that? Tomorrow at 18:00 UTC? Or another day/time?
      • reosarevok
        Stuff like "what to do with syswiki"?
      • yvanzo
        For example, but I guess there will be more items soon.
      • CatQuest
        everyone? surely not me
      • yvanzo
        Everyone in the MeB team.
      • mayhem
        can do.
      • reosarevok
        If we want to do it tomorrow, then we should try to come up with any tasks that need the whole team today :D
      • alastairp
        sounds good. perhaps we can add anything else that we want to discuss during tomorrow too
      • reosarevok: snap
      • Freso
        Wednesday 18 UTC would be better for me, if I’m needed.
      • monkey
        Is it possible to do it on Wednesday 18:00 UTC instead?
      • Freso
        monkey: :p
      • reosarevok
        I'm fine with Wed too, gives a bit more time to collect ideas
      • yvanzo
        Wednesday works for me too.
      • alastairp
        me too
      • mayhem
        Freso: you and I are both in the same boat: are there docs for your job?
      • yvanzo
        It will give more time to add items too.
      • mayhem
        I hope you're working on them this week.
      • wednesday is fine for me as well.
      • reosarevok
        Ok, let's do Wed I guess? :)
      • akshaaatt
        I'm fine with anytime. But Wednesday sounds better 👌
      • Freso
        mayhem: There aren’t, but I also don’t have access to syswiki, so if the meeting is going to be about that, I’m not sure I will have much to say. :) (But I’m also thinking that maybe it is time I get access to syswiki? But let’s talk about that separately.)
      • reosarevok
        Freso: I'd be happy to look over your docs once you have them and see if I notice something missing that I'd need to know if I have to step in during your hols or whatever :)
      • yvanzo
        It can be about anything at MeB level really, not just syswiki.
      • mayhem
        syswiki is a technical detail. please document your job this week -- its ... eh. fun! yeah.
      • reosarevok
        (and to help document MB admin stuff that goes along with it, if needed)
      • CatQuest
        despite what some of you may think. I have discovered by trying to write it down that my job is actually quite profucious in doing
      • reosarevok
        I guess technically I should document support too, not that I have much to write down :)
      • But maybe I can figure out some basic things
      • CatQuest
        .. probably everyone isthikning that right now :D
      • Freso
        mayhem: Yeah, I’m planning to. There are a number of things I’ve been meaning to jot down, just haven’t gotten around to… yet. Will do my best effort to remember and jot down this week!
      • yvanzo
        zas, bitmap: Wed 18:00 UTC works for you too?
      • bitmap
        yes, sounds good
      • zas
        yes, ok for me
      • yvanzo
        Thanks!
      • Freso
        Alright!
      • yvanzo
        lucifer too I guess :)
      • CatQuest
        oh, should we get drsaunde to document adding areas?
      • yvanzo
        Freso: Done for me at least.
      • reosarevok
        CatQuest: Would be good, actually...
      • I mean, not so much "how to add an area", I can do that, but "how does he decide if something qualifies" and whatnot
      • CatQuest
        ++
      • i cna happily link to the justification in the "how to add instruments" document for that. or just copymodify for mthere
      • Freso
        That’s all for today then. Thank you everyone for your time! Stay safe out there. :)
      • reosarevok
        Yeah :)
      • Freso
        </BANG>
      • alastairp
        Freso: given that we booked this week to write documentation, this week sounds like a great time to jot down these things :)
      • CatQuest
        you too freso
      • Freso
        alastairp: Exactly. :)
      • reosarevok
        Freso: can you contact drsaunde about this, or should I?
      • lucifer
        Wed 18:00 UTC works for me too.
      • Freso
        reosarevok: Can you?
      • reosarevok
        Ok
      • Freso
        Thank you. :)
      • Freso goes to get food
      • akshaaatt
        Thank you!
      • CatQuest
        if we mean wedesday 18:00 utz in two days i'm rbably up for that myself
      • reosarevok
        CatQuest: I think we do :)
      • CatQuest
        erh utc
      • monkey
        Thanks Freso
      • reosarevok
        mayhem: Do we have any "This week is documentation week!" public notices?
      • CatQuest
        no, we should
      • imho
      • alastairp
        reosarevok: I suspect not other than the summit minutes
      • akshaaatt
        +1 reosarevok
      • mayhem
        none.
      • alastairp
        CatQuest: you're aways welcome to attend, but as of now the only item in the agenda is something about a private documentation source for contractors, so...
      • CatQuest
        i say we post on twitter and the blog
      • alastairp: I mean sure
      • but the instrument how ot can atlast be copid to syswiki whne it's done
      • for use once i've given up the ghost and my repalcemnt is hired properly?
      • reosarevok
        Ideally we would have a less-private-than-syswiki place for those things :)
      • CatQuest
        that
      • reosarevok
        We're also moving some MB docs from syswiki to our github IIRC because of that
