a user in the discord shared this link from IA, which seems to point toward uploading/content addition for at least *some* IA services coming back, and is wondering if it means CAA uploads might be restorable soon: https://blog.archive.org/2024/10/28/internet-arch…

Did minor fixes to the summit blog post, and added a picture of ansh !! Did I miss any other attendees from the individual pics? Let me know if so
last comment in the review: "this needs to be done (if at all) after the structure of the flairs has been decided."
2024-10-29 30327, 2024
mayhem[m]
any insight as to if we need flair structure?
2024-10-29 30359, 2024
monkey[m]
I believe what we discussed with lucifer and ansh was to store only a string representing each flair (instead of say a JSON object), so we can keep the resulting data lean and easy to work with
2024-10-29 30324, 2024
mayhem[m]
which means there is not validation possible/required?
2024-10-29 30326, 2024
monkey[m]
We will be caching that data, but makes sense to not bloat for limited reasons
2024-10-29 30333, 2024
monkey[m]
Probably no validation
2024-10-29 30346, 2024
mayhem[m]
ok, then we can nuke the comment and move on.
2024-10-29 30304, 2024

All the front-end will do (probably) is apply that string as a css class, so no bad failure scenarios
2024-10-29 30352, 2024
mayhem[m]
no bad, just the usual CSS failures, lol.
2024-10-29 30352, 2024
monkey[m]
Yesterday I was working on some CSS animations for the flairs, making sure we don't need to store anything else. Should be good with just a string
<monkey[m]> "ansh: I would also request, if..." <- Sure! I've opened this draft PR for flair settings page. We'll merge this into a feature branch again.
2024-10-29 30323, 2024
monkey[m]
The feature branch has been merged already, but I suppose we can still merge into it. That would be the donations branch, not donation-tiers (also merged)
2024-10-29 30340, 2024
monkey[m]
Nope, feature branch deleted after merging :)
2024-10-29 30350, 2024

Can create a new branch if need be
2024-10-29 30347, 2024

Well, there we go: donation-flairs. I'll update LB#2988 to merge into it as well

MusicBrainz is a non-profit project that aims to create a collaborative music database. It was founded in response to restrictions placed on the Compact Disc Database (CDDB), a database for software applications to look up audio CD information on the Internet. MusicBrainz has expanded its goals to reach beyond a CD metadata storehouse to become a structured online database for music. It captures information about artists, their

recorded works, and the relationships between them. MusicBrainz allows contributors to upload cover art images of releases to the database; these images are hosted by Cover Art Archive (CAA), a joint project between Internet Archive and MusicBrainz started in 2012. Internet Archive provides the bandwidth, storage and legal protection for hosting the images, while MusicBrainz stores metadata and provides public access through the Web

reosarevok: getting lazy, having gemini write text for me. what do you think instead of the text that is in funding.json now?
2024-10-29 30331, 2024
reosarevok[m]
I thought the openresty thing replaced needing a file at all in mbs, hence pinging bitmap:
2024-10-29 30322, 2024
reosarevok[m]
Should it mention the CAA, especially given the circumstances? 😅
2024-10-29 30332, 2024
reosarevok[m]
Otherwise the text seems fine I guess
2024-10-29 30334, 2024

those are two different thigns.

one we need to serve: /.well-known/funding-manifest-urls and I just checked, that is now correctly deployed. (thanks @zas)
2024-10-29 30337, 2024
mayhem[m]
and for the other requirement we need to have that file in the repo, which shows that meb.org/funding.json may speak on behalf of the musicbrainz-server repo.
2024-10-29 30320, 2024

Ah. That's annoying if we don't need it in the repo at all otherwise, but oh well

I'm afk at the moment but if it is needed we can merge it

not urgent, but if we can merge today, that would be great.

ah, I assumed having it in git was just a fallback for projects only on github without a domain. certainly can't hurt though

every URL referenced in funding.json needs to have authority established -- for both the web pages and the git repos themselves.

aerozol: Great work on the blog post and videos! Ican only imagine how long that took...
Denny, the editor, once gave us a huge compliment. When he was working on the Google Knowledge Graph he said: " I always loved it when I had to resolve music related issues. I knew that MB had already thought about all this and solved all the tricky problems."
