Last week not much did happen. I researched a bit about code signing certificates and did some code review. > mayhem, please ignore the [SSL.com](http://ssl.com/) warnings about the certificate for now. Nothing bad will happen, we just need a new one for the next Picard release. I’ll get back to you once I’ve returned from my trip and can concentrate on MB again. > [@reosarevok](#): > > Hi! This week I worked on finally getting our MBS code working with Eslint 9, which also involved un-spaghettiing the guess case code a bit > (it’s still a mess) > I also spent some time looking into STYLE-2555 (more comments on [[forum thread](https://community.metabrainz.org/t/split-withdrawn-into-withdrawn-and-expunged-style-2555/719543)] always welcome although it seems we have a reasonably good idea where to move with it) > [[STYLE-2555: Change ‘Withdrawn’ Release Status, add ‘Expunged’](https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/STYLE-2555)] > And updating MBS-1658 so that maybe we can test it - I should throw it up on test tomorrow > [[MBS-1658: My Collection: add free text comment field](https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-1658)] > I also worked on MBS-9253 which apparently aerozol is very excited about > [[MBS-9253: List EP release groups above singles on artist pages](https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-9253)] > And the usual support and community and whatnot plus some Spanish translation > [@bitmap](#): > > last week I continued working on the React components for loading/editing alternative tracklists…the state management is pretty close to working, and I’ll probably be able to write the edit submission code this week > I also reviewed various PRs and submitted one to disable cover art/image editing for the time being (deployed by yvanzo today) > [@rob](#): > > [mayhem] last week was a rough week – I mostly spent the time recovering from travel/jetlag and being sick. so very not fun, > but I did get moving on finishing the accounting mess I discovered in mid-september. with lucifer’s help I’ve managed to now get the accounts to balance again. > took days to get that sorted out. I’m not nearly caught up on everything business and am hoping to return to some technical work soon. > [@lucifer](#): > > last week, i worked on finishing and shipping the user data exports. > other than that, i progressed on [last.fm](http://last.fm/) backend importer. > [@mr\_monkey](#): > > [monkey] Last week I finished improving the artist page on LB with “better” (at least simpler) album sorting. Thanks to those who participated for their help and feedback > I also reviewed and prodded some PRs we have in progress > On the BB side I worked on migrating to Bootstrap 5 with React-Bootstrap 2, and also taking care of old depe3ndencies > As well as some security tickets > That’s mostly it for me, a few other small bugs squashed and PRs merged. > [@yvanzo](#): > > Last week, I reviewed security alerts and patched MBS as needed. > I prepared migrating services to the new server, and did some maintenance. > Disabled our services related to the Internet Archive until they fully recovered. > Updated MB servers today as bitmap mentioned it to temporarily turn off images editing. > Thanks to derat, Divyansh Gupta, and Serial-ATA for their contributed code changes! > [@Ashutosh\_Aswal](#): > > last week was all about convocation > I recently got graduated and now I am back home for some time for Diwali > gonna be AFK for sometime > [@jasjeet](#): > > [jasje] Last week, I was working on some DX changes that would enable us to easily support dialogs in a drop in component manner. > Re iterated on some usages of dialogs in profile tab > Pushed and more one the way > Other than that > Went to an event where i was invited as a speaker : P > Made people aware about projects at MeB > I hope we get slight influx in contributions > Fingers crossed > [@anshgoyal31](#): > > [ansh] Last week, I mainly spent time on some tickets and reviewing couple of PRs. > I also worked on the user flair settings page and a bit on the new recordings page. > [@zas](#): > > Last week I took care of SOLR cluster instabilities we had on Thursday/Friday, likely related to some queries from bots > Everything is now back to normal > I also upgraded systems, Grafana & Discourse (and we have a pending upgrade for SOLR / Java to do this week) > I ordered a new AX102 server which finally arrived today (selda), it is now ready for us to migrate services to it, thanks to the help of atj for noble (24.04) minor Ansible fixes > Plus usual user support, MB edits, etc. > [@kellnerd](#): > > Hi and sorry for the earlier delay, I just came back from dinner. > Last week I had to deal with some annoying API changes which caused Harmony to seed bad data, this time Spotify was the culprit. > While I was already at addressing forum feedback, I did some more QoL improvements and spent time replying to the feedback, which took longer than expected 🫠 > Also dealt with some userscript issues / reviewed PRs, and thought about MB style tickets. > Which means I only found little time for GSoC, reviewing my latest work before the summit and reading my notes about the next steps 😅 > [@ApeKattQuest\_MonkeyPython](#): > > [MonkeyPython] my review for today is “too much IRL shit getting in the way of doing online shit” (I’m exhausted lol) > This week I will again not have much time because RL stuff. but monkey pls hit me up the 2-3 tickets/bbcommunity posts of highest importance so I can get started, thanks : D (reading is a free move idk :D) There was some trailing chatter, but nothing that requires notes (you can read here: [logs with the relevant timestamp](https://chatlogs.metabrainz.org/libera/metabrainz/2024-10-21/?msg=5391694&page=2)) absent: atj (1) aerozol (2) ericd (3), pranav (3) (ericd and pranav removed from regulars list, feel free to add yourself again any time) ---
