</div> <div class="entry-content"> <h3>Changes mainly of interest to MusicBrainz Users</h3> <p><b>Album “Meta” Counts</b></p> <p>The count of tracks, disc ids and TRMs held for each album (the “albummeta”<br /> data) was often inaccurate.聽 Additionally, some albums didn’t have an<br /> “albummeta” row, which actually caused them to disappear entirely from their<br /> respective artists’ pages!聽 These bugs have now been fixed.</p> <p>The “compact” display mode of the “show artist” page displays these counts; if<br /> one of the counts is zero it now just leaves a blank space, instead of showing<br /> a zero and the relevant icon.聽 This makes it easier to spot which albums<br /> have no disc ids or no TRMs.</p> <p>Like the “compact” display mode, these meta counts are now also shown when you<br /> perform an album search.</p> <p><b>Non-Album Tracks</b></p> <p>The album name “Non-album tracks” is now changed to “[non-album tracks]”, in<br /> keeping with the style of using “[…]” to signify special meaning within<br /> MusicBrainz (e.g. [silence], [data track] etc).</p> <p>As new N.A.T. albums are created, they (i.e. the album name itself) won’t be<br /> added to the search indices (although the tracks within them will be).聽 The<br /> existing N.A.T. album names are staying in the indices, for now, but may be<br /> removed soon.</p> <p>If two artists, both with N.A.T. albums, are merged, then the two N.A.T.<br /> albums are merged together, keeping all the tracks.</p> <p>Previously if the track numbers of non-album tracks for an artist were not<br /> continuous (if there were “gaps”, e.g. 1, 2, 4, 5) then adding a N.A.T. would<br /> fail.聽 This is now fixed.</p> <p>N.A.T. albums are automatically deleted when their last track is removed.</p> <p>The “show track” page no longer shows the (meaningless) track sequence number<br /> for non-album tracks.</p> <p><b>The Tagger</b></p> <p>The %-relevance values shown in the lookup page now use the same more detailed<br /> algorithm (weighted similarity calculation) that the Tagger itself<br /> uses.聽 This should make the overall matching process more accurate.</p> <p>When showing a list of matching tracks, the track length is highlighted<br /> according to how well it matches the length of the track you’re trying to<br /> tag.聽 Green indicates a good match, red represents a very bad match, and<br /> blue is somewhere in the middle.聽 If insufficient information is<br /> available, it’s black.</p> <p>Also when showing match tracks, a “tag” link is included on that page, so you<br /> don’t need to click through to the next page in order to tag.</p> <p>The main lookup page (/taglookup.html) now moves the input focus into the form<br /> when the page loads.</p> <p>The sidebar search panel now works when used within the Tagger.</p> <p><b>Voting</b></p> <p>You can now vote more than once on each moderation.聽 Only your most recent<br /> vote counts.聽 In other words, you can change your mind.聽 Because of this, you<br /> must now wait until the moderation closes before you can see a list of all<br /> votes for a moderation (on /showmod.html).聽 If it’s your moderation you can<br /> always see the votes, of course.</p> <p>Also on the “show moderation” page (/showmod.html) you can now see the date<br /> and time at which each vote was cast.聽 If someone votes more than once (and<br /> changes their mind), then the old, ignored votes are shown in grey.</p> <p>It’s now also possible to have a “No Vote” button” – go to your preferences<br /> page to enable it.聽 This makes it much easier to vote on a whole page of<br /> moderations, but not vote on some of them (in which case, those moderations<br /> will keep on showing up in your list of things to vote on).聽 This is<br /> controlled by two new preferences: “Abstain by default” and “Show the ‘No<br /> Vote’ option”.聽 Try out the four possible combinations to see how they work.</p> <p><b>Miscellaneous</b></p> <p>A “Search Google” link has been added to the “show album” and “show track”<br /> pages.聽 These Google links now search for exact phrases, hopefully making it<br /> easier to find what you want more quickly.聽 So for example if you click the<br /> “search” link from <a href="http://www.musicbrainz.org/showtrack.html?trackid=286059">this track</a>, the search query used is <b>“Alice in Chains” “Love, Hate, Love”</b>.</p> <p>Clicking on the album attributes link (which normally pops up the attributes<br /> guide) now works without Javascript too.</p> <p>“Remove Track” mods now show both the track name (with link) and the album<br /> name (with link) – as long as the track still exists, anyway.</p> <p>In the “batch operation” page (where you select what you want to do to the<br /> albums you just tagged), if fewer than 2 albums are tagged, then we now show a<br /> disabled “Select” button, instead of the message “Merge album not<br /> available”.聽 This is more consistent with how such user interfaces<br /> usually work.</p> <p>“Guess Case” now knows to keep these abbreviations in upper case: DJ, MC, TV,<br /> MTV.</p> <p>The “top moderators” page now shows the top 25 moderators, not just the top<br /> 10.</p> <p>There was a problem with anonymously adding albums; this is now believed to be<br /> fixed.</p> <p>Some moderators have proven that they can’t be trusted with the ability to<br /> “automod” case-changes, because they make many case changes which go against<br /> the style guide for no valid reason.聽 To handle this, a new “privilege” has<br /> been created, dubbed the “Untrusted” bit.聽 Moderators given this bit cannot<br /> automod anything, except for “Add TRMs”.</p> <p>Incomplete home page URLs entered in moderators’ profiles are now “guessed”,<br /> so for example <a href="http://www.example.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com</a> becomes <a href="http://www.example.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com/</a></p> <p>On the “create new login” page, a few paragraphs of help text have been added<br /> about what we will and won’t do with your e-mail address.</p> <p>You must be logged in to send a message to another moderator.</p> <h3>Changes mainly of interest to MusicBrainz Programmers</h3> <p>Some TRMs were associated with some tracks more than once.聽 This caused some<br /> RDF queries to return duplicate results.聽 These duplicates have now been<br /> removed, and the “insert” code has been modified to prevent them from<br /> reappearing.</p> <p>The “FindDistinctTRMID” RDF query was failing because returning TRMs as<br /> results wasn’t properly handled.聽 This has now been fixed.</p> <h3>Changes mainly of interest to MusicBrainz Server Programmers</h3> <p>Mail is now generated using MIME::Lite instead of “hand-crafting” the headers<br /> etc.聽 As well as making it much more likely that this is done correctly, it<br /> also means that it will be much easier to use more advanced MIME capabilities<br /> (e.g. HTML e-mail, attachments) in the future.</p> <p>Unique database indices have been added to trmjoin (trm, track) and albumjoin<br /> (album, track).聽 A primary key “id” column has been added to both<br /> moderator_preference and moderator_subscribe_artist.</p> <p>Tagger sessions are now automatically recognised by the web server, and an<br /> “mbt=1” is written into the session data (even before the user has logged<br /> in).聽 This is done by detecting the request to “/tagger/intro.html?mbt=1”,<br /> which is the first page loaded by the Tagger, and which nothing else would<br /> normally use.聽 This makes it possible to more reliably detect when the web<br /> session is within the Tagger, and adjust accordingly (e.g. the sidebar search<br /> panel).</p> <h3>Bugs and RFEs Closed</h3> <ul> <li>682303 <a
