Attendance
[edit]- Asher
- Diederik
- Andrew Otto
- Robla
- Need to make sure we don't underestimate the problem and the amount of work.
Database Design
[edit]- Asher: hash index?
- You don't need to worry about managing uniqueness.
- Would be better to do a composite key on the columns you need, rather than combining them into a hash
history
[edit]- Nimish did work to make it easy to get metrics via API in JSON or XML.
- this isn't a big deal to start over
- Eric Zachte has a bunch of scripts to extract data.
- Sam did some work (might be a a lot).
- Exposes database as webservice via mediawiki
API
[edit]In web.py or other framework, or as MediaWiki extension?
Let's do MediaWiki
Decisions
[edit]- use new db schema
- rewrite scripts in python or whatever, but make use of what we can as soon as we can.
- make things as modular as possible.
- Use MediaWiki extension for API.
