[mailed in] [ericd] This week I added some minor improvements when reversing the timeline slider to get the calculation right and optimized mobile view in PR#2824, which was finally merged!

This week I’ve been working a bit on prototyping parts of the mail service [repo]
So far I have rendering the templates to HTML and text
as well as some aux stuff like OpenAPI spec generation and live reload
I’ve also set up a dev copy of MusicBrainz Server just today
after some struggles with docker vs podman xD

Last week I finally finished the required refactoring of Harmony (my MB seeder) for which I had lost the passion four months ago.
Once that was done, I’ve made good progress with exposing more of the internal features to the web UI.
I am almost done with what I consider the essential bare minimum features, so it might be ready for release very soon.

[monkey] Ladies and gentlemen, this is meeting number 5…
A little bit of GSOC, in my life
A little bit of by single-page app, by my side
A little bit of BrainzPlayer is all I need
A little bit of PR Review’s what I see
A little bit of reading documentation makes me your man
Ha !

[quote = “zas”]
Last week I spend most of the times cleaning up/refactoring Picard code.
I also helped atj with new solr cloud deployment
plus usual supervision, user support, system maintenance tasks.

[quote = “yvanzo”]
Last week, I helped reosarevok with releasing an MB Server/Docker update,
with instructions to work around a blocking edit for some obsolete mirrors.
The next day I fixed a regression in MB Docker Compose project, thankfully reported by @derat.
Later on plugged the new SolrCloud 9 instance set up by atj into test.musicbrainz.org.
Also made and merged some improvements to build MB docker images in production.
More improvements to come for the Perl 5.38 upgrade (and pre-built mirror images).

[quote = “pranavkonidena”]
[pranav] I continued work on BrainzPlayer, have started work on excluding some device sound files such as ringtones etc showing up
Rest, waiting on a Pr review for the phase 1 of the UI revamp
[/quote]

[quote = “rob”]
[mayhem] last week was a fair amount of accounting follow up and some other relationship management.
but then I finally got past that and started working on troi and finishing a major refactor.
after that I started working to release the next version of LB radio, which is looking much nicer all around.
there was some gsoc work as well.
I have to say, we have a lot of good proposals – a lot better than the past two years.
which brings other challenges, for sure.

[quote = “Ashutosh_Aswal”]
[yellowhatpro] Last week I was busy, could not do much
Started working on [MBS-13533: Release group pages should prioritize non-bootleg album art]
Played with mb server and docker containers
[/quote]

[quote = “lucifer”]
mostly worked on OAuth related stuff last week, made lots of progress on testing and ironing out issues.
90% of the code is done, took 90% of the time. the rest should take 90% as well.
also, looked into some misc LB issues and gsoc discussions.

[quote = “ansh”]
Last week I worked on making some final changes on React Query, to make it ready for merge.
I had a great discussion with monkey to make the SPA feature ready for merge before the GSoCers enter the ring.
I also worked on BrainzPlayer SPA. I also tested the Queues feature with SPA, and it is working fine, just need to cleanup a bit.
And spent some time reviewing PRs
[/quote]

[quote = “atj”]
last week i deployed Solr and HAproxy onto the new cluster VMs
thanks to zas and yvanzo for their assistance with various aspects of that
once the indexing was complete i began looking at how to load test the system to determine the level of performance available
this led me down another rabbit hole of having to find and test different tools
ending up with jmeter
[/quote]

[quote = “reosarevok”]
Last week I mostly kept converting our React components to use the new Flow component syntax (which is almost done, except for the trickiest bits, and seems like it’ll lead to 3000 less lines of boilerplate and types, which is neat)
Other than that, the usual - support, community

[LupinIII] I’ve finally gotten a new computer!! yaay!

I’ve also gotten new neigbours and they are hammering the wall right now in the meetig XD
anyway that’s it for me. I’ll be getting back to your regular squeduled instrument shenanigans soon ™

[quote = “theflash”]
[theflash_] Last week was fun
did some code refactoring to fix some bugs
explored spotify-ios sdk
using it in our app for song playback
hopefully, we can consider it done by this coming week
[/quote]

[quote = “itachi_0x0”]
[Tarun_0x0] I hope everyone is having a good start to the week
Sadly, most of my weekdays last week were consumed by sickness. However, in the end, I managed to finalize some mockups for the alias and identifier sections after discussing them with monkey
Over the weekend, I got the chance to mentor at a hackathon.

Telegram Bridge

[quote = “ApeKattQuest_MonkeyPython”]
[LupinIII] so we have now got bridges to both matrix and discord
we had a conction to telegram in #musicbrainz-telegram
but that bridge seems to be broken (posts in the telegram group doesn’t seem to show in the irc and visa versa)
initially there where issues with /off message and the like, but that (as well as spam issue) was solved
the only thing we rally need to do is get a hold of jfloey and get onboard with integrating it
to actual musicbrainz
and since we have both matrix and discord i think this should be done
[/quote]

@reosarevok says they are not against the idea. And that “If you can try to get in touch with jflory, we could hopefully help him with it”. @ApeKattQuest_MonkeyPython says they will try get in touch with jflory.
