Agenda

Please add items to the agenda you'd like to discuss:

  • State of the project and the non-profit
  • Dicuss album rework proposal (to add UPC/EAN, ISRC codes)
  • Solving feat. problems on the track level (reorganization of UI to match DB possibilities as n-n relations between the tables)
  • Adding Events and Labels to AR (AdvancedEntity).
  • Prioritize desired features for the next year
  • Generalization of album/track/artist concept (ReleaseGroups, abstract albums/tracks + album/track grouping for AR and better representation)
  • TRM/fingerprinting status, plan for removal/improvment
  • PicardTagger: When will it be ready to do what? How will this affect the rest of MusicBrainz (resources, growth,...)
  • Expanding the data set to include subjective information (folksonomy, reviews, etc.):
    • Do we want that?
    • How would it work? (Would it work at all?)
    • How and when to implement what.
  • Think very generally about the growth of MusicBrainz: What changes will be required to manage that, and to prevent chaos? (FAQ-O-Matic, WikiDocs, Nabble or Forums, Social statistics [like rating of artists' and editors' matureness by 0-5 stars], usage info from the Tagger,...)
