[Wikitech-l] [gsoc] splitting the img_metadata field into a new table

Hi all, For those who don't know me, I'm one of the GSOC students this year. My mentor is ^demon, and my project is to enhance support for metadata in uploaded files. Similar to the recent thread on interwiki transclusions, I'd thought I'd ask for comments about what I propose to do. Currently

Re: [Wikitech-l] [gsoc] splitting the img_metadata field into a new table

Hi bawolff, thanks for your work. I'm not very happy about the name metadata for the table. As far as I understand it, this is about file metadata. metadata suggests it contains information on pages (e.g. statistics). Please consider using a name that contains 'file', e.g. file_metadata. Thanks,

Re: [Wikitech-l] Revisiting becoming an OpenID Provider

I imagine the load wouldn't be a big deal. An OpenID server is pretty simple, no? Yeah. I couldn't imagine it adding much load. I've done several OpenID client implementations; so watching the conversation with the server, it seems like there's no overhead at all beyond a normal login

Re: [Wikitech-l] [gsoc] splitting the img_metadata field into a new table

More important than file_metadata and page asset metadata working with the same db table backed, its important that you can query export all the properties in the same way. Within SMW you already have some special properties like pagelinks, langlinks, category properties etc, that are not

[Wikitech-l] Ideatorrent

A few months ago I created an Ideatorrent site on request of the Wikipedia Usability Initiative team. We wanted to have integrated authentication with the rest of Wikimedia before promoting it, but that will likely be a while, and we think Ideatorrent could be useful to the community. For now,
