AdvancedRelationships (finally!)

  • 2005-01:

Some Simple Improvements

  • This weekend I've been hacking on a few simple improvements:
    • * A way for automods to temporarily drop their privileges, thus allowing them to enter a change which will go to the vote
    • * A new preference, "When I vote on a moderation, mail me all future notes for that moderation" (I still need to test this one)
    • * Feature Request #1038665: Display the number of subscribers for each artist. Also, a new preference: "Allow other users to see my subscribed artists", and new pages to see artists to which a user is subscribed, and users who subscribe to a given artist.


2004

Memcached, Persistent MusicBrainzIDs and InterNationalization

  • 2004-12:
  • DaveEvans is working on making much better use of memcached, including the use of pgmemcache. I'm also working on making Persistent MusicBrainzIDs (so that if, say, two artists are merged, then the ID of the old artist still finds the new artist). Plus, rudimentary support for specifying the language of each album has started.

2003 and Older

  • Confirmation of e-mail addresses went live in June 2003.
  • Notes about the process of upgrading the server from Perl 5.6 to 5.8 (in 2003?)
  • Rob and Dave fleshing out the structure of the site just prior to launch (in 2001?) -- see SiteMenuArrangement for a more recent proposal (May 2004, updated Sept. 2004).
  • Rather outdated (or historical) list of suggestions. I am not even sure how much of this has been implemented.
  • Archived discussions (implemented, dismissed, or outdated). This page dates frome before we did RestructureTheWiki and is really really old.
