Aleksejrs: /* Media Types */ nordlicht styles

== Introduction ==

There are many features that one can think of for MediaGoblin. Some should be implemented really soon, because they are needed right now. Other features would be nice to have, but are currently really hard to implement. And finally there are the Feature Ideas that can be classified as "brain storming".

This wiki page is mostly for long term feature ideas. This specifically means there are no promises that anything listed here will ever happen. It means nobody is currently working on this feature.

If you have an idea for a new feature, that is not listed here or in the Bug Tracker, please talk to some developers, or add it below in the "Yet Unsorted Ideas" section. If you really think, that your idea is extremely important and needs to be acted upon soon, you could file a bug.

== The List ==
If there is a bug (closed or open), please link to it.

=== Access Control ===
* Renaming of an account
** by its user
** by an admin
* Account creation / activation, considering e-mail address
** Expire inactive accounts
** A method of account activation: ask the user to send e-mail message with a specified text from the address they entered, instead of GMG sending a message to that address (which could be somebody else’s).
*** What about faked addresses? If that’s a serious problem for this, could it still be a requirement? Or is it so serious that it would bother malicious misusers least of all people? --[[User:Aleksejrs|Aleksejrs]] 15:17, 7 December 2011 (EST)
** The above allows accepting multiple inactive accounts for the same e-mail address without bothering its owner and without making it difficult for him to register.
*** But accounts could have the same name… --[[User:Aleksejrs|Aleksejrs]] 15:14, 7 December 2011 (EST)
* An account may constitute a part of user's identity, one may want to prohibit creation of a new account with the same name/id by a different person. --[[User:Aleksejrs|Aleksejrs]] ([[User talk:Aleksejrs|talk]]) 09:11, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

=== Security ===
* DONE: CSRF ([http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/76 #76])
* <code>X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff</code>
*: Served pages have the content-type set. And the browser should not be allowed to guess a different type. See: [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=471020 Firefox bug #471020]
* "Content Security Policy" (CSP) might really be a good add on to have. Noone should rely solely on this, but it might make things a lot safer if other security guards fail.
*: A simple allow 'self' might already get a lot of things better.
*: [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Security/CSP/Introducing_Content_Security_Policy Link1] [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Security/CSP/CSP_policy_directives#options Link2]

=== Security ===
* DONE: CSRF ([http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/76 #76])
* <code>X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff</code>
*: Served pages have the content-type set. And the browser should not be allowed to guess a different type. See: [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=471020 Firefox bug #471020]
* "Content Security Policy" (CSP) might really be a good add on to have. Noone should rely solely on this, but it might make things a lot safer if other security guards fail.
*: A simple allow 'self' might already get a lot of things better.
*: [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Security/CSP/Introducing_Content_Security_Policy Link1] [https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Security/CSP/CSP_policy_directives#options Link2]
* Possibly disallowing pages to be shown in frames.

=== Unsorted Ideas ===
Put your new ideas here:
* [[Search]].
* Related Content
* Generate pages dynamically using files on the file system.
** Like the UI of an ordinary image viewer (e.g. geeqie) or a file manager generates thumbnails (optionally saving them), shows metadata…
** MediaWiki can generate thumbnails of arbitrary size on demand. (hopefully not arbitrarily large?)
* Categorize media as videos, images and audio, put media of each type in a row of the grid
* Offer random image/video/audio option
* Integration with Diaspora
* Facilitate viewing at different resolutions (quality)
* Icons of software used in the footer with description of what it was used for appearing as popup on hover
* Simple image editing features: rotate, crop, white balance?
* Face recognition
* Add [[Feature_Ideas/Collection_Landing|collection-based landing page]] that shows all users' collections (paginated) ([http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/5014 #5014])
* Add [[Feature_Ideas/Collection_Thumbnails|thumbnails]] to collection pages and allow user to select which media item is shown for that collection

*: Our Documentation for developers is currently a bit split. Some are on the wiki, some in the main docs. There are pros and cons for both. We should consider where to put things. One place? Which? Or decide on an individual basis?
*: Good about main docs: Easy to integrate source code doc strings. That way internal api docs can be kept mostly up to date.
*: Good about wiki: Doesn't feel so "set in stone".
* wiki spam: Do we want to change something?

AGENDA

0.3.2 release

What existing features need to be wrapped up?

Werkzeug switch

What time might we do the release?

Congrats to Deb from the mediagoblin team! Congrats de Deb!

Fundraising campaign

Keeping things going mid-campaign

You have questions? I have answers, kinda :)

Getting new contributors involved

Plugins? New features?

-- http://wiki.mediagoblin.org/Meeting#Next_Meeting
Fundraising stuff
Things are going great mostly when people check it out!
But how to spread the word?

should contact more podcasts, etc

currently working with FSF on this

need community to spread the word!

List of places already spreaded list and contacted

VideoThumbnailerMarkII
New video thumbnailer, rewritten to try to eliminate a bug in the old one where processing would stall.
New bugs introduce (of course ;)
Collections
Merged - Thanks aaronw!
WebOb => Werkzeug switch
Made some things break. Need help with testing + bugfixes
borked stuffs:

Accessing paths without trailing slashes, e.g. /submit (instead of /submit/)

Still a lot of legacy WebOb responses (such as webob.exc.HTTPFound() HTTPForbidden() left)

API
Delivered to mrn.is, tryggvib will test it and get back with feedback.
Working, still a lot of room for improvements.
Mostly done, usable, still room for improvements. Example applications:

* Is there a way to improve our unit tests and motivation to write them?
** Simulating a browser by the way of [http://phantomjs.org/ PhantomJS], [http://seleniumhq.org/ Selenium] instead of having code simulating other code against itself might be more natural to write and even more testing the actual application.

*** User management, or having a "secret url" that is not in the photo index that you can share with friends and generate as needed for any media type
** What about traffic? Some of us will host GMG on limited plans.
** Some kind of coding guidelines? Do we have a philosophy like "Keep it Simple, Stupid"
*** This concerns things like: Should plugins land in core eventually, do we want to support ALL THE MEDIA TYPES, ...
** Podcasting support?
** Things that have been hanging???
** Bugtrackers and milestone?

* We plan to create a plugin system. Do we want to create that soon or push it off until things settle a bit more? ([[User:Willkg|Willkg]] 08:54, 10 November 2011 (EST))
* [[Feature Ideas]]: What should we do about the wiki page? Keep it and have it as a monthly topic for "what next"? Convert everything to long waiting bugs?
* Possibility of an [[SQL Database Backend]]?
*: 'executive summary' (well, you should read the long docs): "We could move to sql. It's probably replacing one type of pain by another type of pain, but those are somewhat comparable. Leaving the main question: Do we want to occupy our main devs for some long time with this task and loose momentum?"
* Schendje's [http://wiki.mediagoblin.org/Feature_Ideas/Activities activities proposal]
* "Coming up next" blogpost draft by Deb Nicholson
* Jef's requests:
** Ticket #466 "Use of "Submit" in site copy is sterile and not as friendly and welcoming as it could be". I'd really like to change this soon to something more suitable. How can we improve the wording here? Some alternatives have been mentioned in the bug report, but which one should we pick? Link: http://bugs.foocorp.net/issues/466
** The concept and naming of "favourites". We'll (hopefully) be able to "favourite" media soon, which I *think* means that 1) it'll work like a "I like this" comment, a quick token of appreciation, 2) it'll be added to your list of favourites so you can save and promote it, and 3) we could maybe use the number of favourites as a ranking. What I'd like to know is: is that the intended purpose? If so, should we name them favo(u)rites or something else? "Like", "love", "save", "appreciate", "heart", "high five" and many more could all be contenders. And the name should be consistent with the action and purpose, of course. So I'd like to clear up how and why we will use favourites and what we should call them.

[http://mediagoblin.org/irclogs/irc_meeting_2011-11-05.txt IRC log]

* What happened in the last month, what was good, what could be better next time?
** Release:
*** Good: 0.1.0 released!
*** Bad: postponing vs not postponing
** Sites and deployment documentation:
*** Good: new mediagoblin.org
*** Good: deployment documentation
*** Bad: py-bcrypt’s site was down just after the release, so the virtualenv deployment didn’t work, and it wasn’t clear how to fix it.
** Live instances:
*** Joar has a live instance!
*** But what does it mean? Should ordinary users start using it?
**** Details at [[User:Joar/mg.wandborg.se]] -- [[User:Joar|Joar]] 17:01, 6 November 2011 (EST)
*** nyergler added a note about "heartbeat"/status to API notes
* What should be done next month?
* Starting real work on federation (via OStatus)... and do we split any of this work out into its own library?
* An API
* Creative Commons licensing tools
* Merging in the multimedia/video branch
*: (this is *very close* already actually thanks to the hard work of Joar Wandborg! But we need some help on the gstreamer front to fix a few issues... if you or someone you know is an expert in this area we could really use their help to make the videos that come out smoother!)
* Rollover items from 0.1.0
* Multiple file upload interface
* Drag and drop uploads interface (probably related!)

=== 2011-10 (held on 2011-10-01) ===

[http://mediagoblin.org/irclogs/irc_meeting_2011-10-01.txt IRC log]

This month's meeting was a quickly announced short meeting. The project is getting back on track and next month's meeting will be scheduled more properly. A bunch of people were around.

The most important decisions:
* The project will keep monthly releases. They're the heartbeat of the project.
* Release 0.1.0 this sunday/monday.
* New website will hopefully be deployed in the next few days.
* And the following things are planned to happen during this month: Most importantly federation. The developers have decided to make up their minds on what federation aactually should mean for MediaGoblin. Concerning code, probably "activity streams" are the first goal. If there is no (good) python library for this, a new stand alone library may be created. If so, a name for it has to be found. It should have something about communication in it. And the other thing to happen during this month is an ongoing discussion about "bus factor".

Feature Ideas

2014-10-16T22:03:15Z

Aleksejrs: correction and update

== Introduction ==

There are many features that one can think of for MediaGoblin. Some should be implemented really soon, because they are needed right now. Other features would be nice to have, but are currently really hard to implement. And finally there are the Feature Ideas that can be classified as "brain storming".

This wiki page is mostly for long term feature ideas. This specifically means there are no promises that anything listed here will ever happen. It means nobody is currently working on this feature.

If you have an idea for a new feature, that is not listed here or in the Bug Tracker, please talk to some developers, or add it below in the "Yet Unsorted Ideas" section. If you really think, that your idea is extremely important and needs to be acted upon soon, you could file a bug.

== The List ==
If there is a bug (closed or open), please link to it.

=== Access Control ===
* Renaming of an account
** by its user
** by an admin
* Account creation / activation, considering e-mail address
** Expire inactive accounts
** A method of account activation: ask the user to send e-mail message with a specified text from the address they entered, instead of GMG sending a message to that address (which could be somebody else’s).
*** What about faked addresses? If that’s a serious problem for this, could it still be a requirement? Or is it so serious that it would bother malicious misusers least of all people? --[[User:Aleksejrs|Aleksejrs]] 15:17, 7 December 2011 (EST)
** The above allows accepting multiple inactive accounts for the same e-mail address without bothering its owner and without making it difficult for him to register.
*** But accounts could have the same name… --[[User:Aleksejrs|Aleksejrs]] 15:14, 7 December 2011 (EST)
* An account may constitute a part of user's identity, one may want to prohibit creation of a new account with the same name/id by a different person. --[[User:Aleksejrs|Aleksejrs]] ([[User talk:Aleksejrs|talk]]) 09:11, 18 August 2013 (EDT)

=== Design (UI / HTML) ===
* Point and click theme options: Colors, layout, typefaces, size, thumbnail options, etc.
** Simple settable options to "personalize" the instance without fiddling with templates.
* Responsive base theme
* User Avatar ([http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/499 #499])

=== Extensions ===
* A link to the page about installed (and not installed?) plugins.

=== Federation ===
* [[User:Aleksejrs/ideas/federation|Two federation ideas]]

=== Import/Export ===
* [[Feature_Ideas/Flickr_Import|flickr Import]] ( ≈ The user has the possibility to make backup of your content that can be migrated to another instance of mediagoblin)

* MediaWiki export
* digiKam plugin (export to mediagoblin)
* Mount GMG as a file system (e.g. FUSE)
* [http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/600 #600: "Liberate my data" (data export button)]
* [http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/398 #398] wontfixed at some early point

=== Licensing ===
* ([http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/407 FIXED]) Help the site admin comply with the AGPL.
* ([http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/521 FIXED]) Creative Commons choice on user profile. E.g. default license choice for media uploaded by that user.
* “Other (please specify: [ ])” license as an alternative to “All rights reserved”.

=== Media Processing ===
* [[Feature_Ideas/Reprocessing|Retry media processing]]
** Related: rotating images that have no proper Orientation tags.

=== Media Types ===
* For non-still-images:
** Duration
** Bitrate
** Format structure (e.g. “Ogg/Theora+Vorbis”)
** Permit pre-encoded uploads to eliminate server-side processing (available as of 0.3.3) [http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/472 #472]
** Support Ogg/Theora player (already implemented?)
** Subtitles for video and audio
* A way to find out what formats can be uploaded.
** E.g.: A simple type list near the upload field.
* For images with transparency, let the uploader specify background (e.g. color or checkerboard). [http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/482 #482 (background color)] wontfix'ed in the past.

=== Metadata ===
* Ability to write metadata (comments, tags, etc.) to files.
* Copy (some) metadata from the full‐size image into the smaller versions. If possible (according to metadata formats), add a note to them that they are not exactly the original.
** [http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/94 #94]: exif data handling for users (about privacy)
** <del>[http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/284 #284]: Support "Orientation" EXIF tag</del> (fixed)
** EXIF info?
* Display more info about the file on its page
** Resolution of the original
** File size of the original
** Resolution of the scaled-down version
* "trans-tagging": Adding tags to other peoples media [http://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/251 #251]
** [[Many images usecase#Crowd tagging/captioning/commenting]]
* Geotagging support.
** Both read and write.
** Display on OpenStreetMap.
* Consider [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_Web Semantic Web]
** Microformats, RDFa, Microdata
** Consider the privacy implications when choosing what to mark up.
* Add hashes etc, something like magnet links or Metalink, of the files. The information can then be used for downloading, searching, linking to.
** Maybe also optional for privacy.
** Say, a server is loaded a lot, or is short on traffic, so it asks that the visitor use something like Miro to watch the video while/by downloading it via BitTorrent (there is also web seeding, so it may be not a problem if the BitTorrent download doesn't work while the GMG does).

* "Content Security Policy" (CSP) might really be a good add on to have. Noone should rely solely on this, but it might make things a lot safer if other security guards fail.

=== Unsorted Ideas ===
Put your new ideas here:
* [[Search]].
* Related Content
* Generate pages dynamically using files on the file system.
** Like the UI of an ordinary image viewer (e.g. geeqie) or a file manager generates thumbnails (optionally saving them), shows metadata…
** MediaWiki can generate thumbnails of arbitrary size on demand. (hopefully not arbitrarily large?)
* Categorize media as videos, images and audio, put media of each type in a row of the grid
* Offer random image/video/audio option
* Integration with Diaspora
* Facilitate viewing at different resolutions (quality)
* Icons of software used in the footer with description of what it was used for appearing as popup on hover
* Simple image editing features: rotate, crop, white balance?
* Face recognition

Triage Bugs

2014-10-16T21:46:53Z

Aleksejrs: /* Bug keywords/tags */ maybe no meaning yet

The triage process involves reviewing bugs, removing duplicates, validating that the issues described are reproducible, ensuring that the exact behavior is properly documented, diagnosing the cause of each issue, and working with developers to ensure that critical bugs get addressed. In many cases, developers do this kind of work as a matter of course, but one need not be able to code in order to help working with bugs.

To triage bugs, go to the bug tracker and begin reviewing the open issues. If you are able, attempt to:

* ensure that one or two people in addition to the initial reporter have been able to reproduce the issue.
* document the issue more clearly. If you had any trouble reproducing the issue, provide any elucidating information that you can to help others solve the problem more effectively.
* find a way to resolve the problem or provide a workaround.

For help, instructions, and suggestions be in touch with the development community on the list or in the IRC channel for more information. With many eyes, all bugs are shallow.

=== Bug keywords/tags ===
* '''"bitesized"''' for bugs that should be easy to fix, even for beginners.
* (Probably outdated with new bug status system) '''"review"''' for bugs that have a patch (branch!) associated and someone should look at that branch and likely merge it into master
* '''"longterm"''' for bugs, that are planned to happen at some point. There is no immediate need to take action. If the bug has been without traffic for more than a year, we might reconsider the thing.
* '''"sql"''' for things relating to our sql data model.
* '''"video"''' for things relating to the video media type
* '''"audio"''' for things relating to the audio media type

* '''"test"''' may have no strict meaning defined yet, but it is used for bugs that need a test (unit or functional) written, or are about tests.

0.3.2 release

What existing features need to be wrapped up?

Werkzeug switch

What time might we do the release?

Congrats to Deb from the mediagoblin team! Congrats de Deb!

Fundraising campaign

Keeping things going mid-campaign

You have questions? I have answers, kinda :)

Getting new contributors involved

Plugins? New features?

-- http://wiki.mediagoblin.org/Meeting#Next_Meeting
Fundraising stuff
Things are going great mostly when people check it out!
But how to spread the word?

should contact more podcasts, etc

currently working with FSF on this

need community to spread the word!

List of places already spreaded list and contacted

VideoThumbnailerMarkII
New video thumbnailer, rewritten to try to eliminate a bug in the old one where processing would stall.
New bugs introduce (of course ;)
Collections
Merged - Thanks aaronw!
WebOb => Werkzeug switch
Made some things break. Need help with testing + bugfixes
borked stuffs:

Accessing paths without trailing slashes, e.g. /submit (instead of /submit/)

Still a lot of legacy WebOb responses (such as webob.exc.HTTPFound() HTTPForbidden() left)

API
Delivered to mrn.is, tryggvib will test it and get back with feedback.
Working, still a lot of room for improvements.
Mostly done, usable, still room for improvements. Example applications:

** Has anyone looked at the Plugin Writer's Guide, yet?
** Will wants to add a "Contributor's Guide" to docs/ which he'd update from the wiki before every release
* Is there a way to improve our unit tests and motivation to write them?
** Simulating a browser by the way of [http://phantomjs.org/ PhantomJS], [http://seleniumhq.org/ Selenium] instead of having code simulating other code against itself might be more natural to write and even more testing the actual application.

** Galleries
** Theming
*** Using sass would be neat
** Access restrictions
*** User management, or having a "secret url" that is not in the photo index that you can share with friends and generate as needed for any media type
** What about traffic? Some of us will host GMG on limited plans.
** Some kind of coding guidelines? Do we have a philosophy like "Keep it Simple, Stupid"
*** This concerns things like: Should plugins land in core eventually, do we want to support ALL THE MEDIA TYPES, ...
** Podcasting support?
** Things that have been hanging???
** Bugtrackers and milestone?
** More??? We should organize things!

* We plan to create a plugin system. Do we want to create that soon or push it off until things settle a bit more? ([[User:Willkg|Willkg]] 08:54, 10 November 2011 (EST))
* [[Feature Ideas]]: What should we do about the wiki page? Keep it and have it as a monthly topic for "what next"? Convert everything to long waiting bugs?
* Possibility of an [[SQL Database Backend]]?
*: 'executive summary' (well, you should read the long docs): "We could move to sql. It's probably replacing one type of pain by another type of pain, but those are somewhat comparable. Leaving the main question: Do we want to occupy our main devs for some long time with this task and loose momentum?"
* Schendje's [http://wiki.mediagoblin.org/Feature_Ideas/Activities activities proposal]
* "Coming up next" blogpost draft by Deb Nicholson
* Jef's requests:
** Ticket #466 "Use of "Submit" in site copy is sterile and not as friendly and welcoming as it could be". I'd really like to change this soon to something more suitable. How can we improve the wording here? Some alternatives have been mentioned in the bug report, but which one should we pick? Link: http://bugs.foocorp.net/issues/466
** The concept and naming of "favourites". We'll (hopefully) be able to "favourite" media soon, which I *think* means that 1) it'll work like a "I like this" comment, a quick token of appreciation, 2) it'll be added to your list of favourites so you can save and promote it, and 3) we could maybe use the number of favourites as a ranking. What I'd like to know is: is that the intended purpose? If so, should we name them favo(u)rites or something else? "Like", "love", "save", "appreciate", "heart", "high five" and many more could all be contenders. And the name should be consistent with the action and purpose, of course. So I'd like to clear up how and why we will use favourites and what we should call them.

* What happened in the last month, what was good, what could be better next time?
** Release:
*** Good: 0.1.0 released!
*** Bad: postponing vs not postponing
** Sites and deployment documentation:
*** Good: new mediagoblin.org
*** Good: deployment documentation
*** Bad: py-bcrypt’s site was down just after the release, so the virtualenv deployment didn’t work, and it wasn’t clear how to fix it.
** Live instances:
*** Joar has a live instance!
*** But what does it mean? Should ordinary users start using it?
**** Details at [[User:Joar/mg.wandborg.se]] -- [[User:Joar|Joar]] 17:01, 6 November 2011 (EST)
*** nyergler added a note about "heartbeat"/status to API notes
* What should be done next month?
* Starting real work on federation (via OStatus)... and do we split any of this work out into its own library?
* An API
* Creative Commons licensing tools
* Merging in the multimedia/video branch
*: (this is *very close* already actually thanks to the hard work of Joar Wandborg! But we need some help on the gstreamer front to fix a few issues... if you or someone you know is an expert in this area we could really use their help to make the videos that come out smoother!)
* Rollover items from 0.1.0
* Multiple file upload interface
* Drag and drop uploads interface (probably related!)

=== 2011-10 (held on 2011-10-01) ===

[http://mediagoblin.org/irclogs/irc_meeting_2011-10-01.txt IRC log]

This month's meeting was a quickly announced short meeting. The project is getting back on track and next month's meeting will be scheduled more properly. A bunch of people were around.

The most important decisions:
* The project will keep monthly releases. They're the heartbeat of the project.
* Release 0.1.0 this sunday/monday.
* New website will hopefully be deployed in the next few days.
* And the following things are planned to happen during this month: Most importantly federation. The developers have decided to make up their minds on what federation aactually should mean for MediaGoblin. Concerning code, probably "activity streams" are the first goal. If there is no (good) python library for this, a new stand alone library may be created. If so, a name for it has to be found. It should have something about communication in it. And the other thing to happen during this month is an ongoing discussion about "bus factor".

0.3.2 release

What existing features need to be wrapped up?

Werkzeug switch

What time might we do the release?

Congrats to Deb from the mediagoblin team! Congrats de Deb!

Fundraising campaign

Keeping things going mid-campaign

You have questions? I have answers, kinda :)

Getting new contributors involved

Plugins? New features?

-- http://wiki.mediagoblin.org/Meeting#Next_Meeting
Fundraising stuff
Things are going great mostly when people check it out!
But how to spread the word?

should contact more podcasts, etc

currently working with FSF on this

need community to spread the word!

List of places already spreaded list and contacted

VideoThumbnailerMarkII
New video thumbnailer, rewritten to try to eliminate a bug in the old one where processing would stall.
New bugs introduce (of course ;)
Collections
Merged - Thanks aaronw!
WebOb => Werkzeug switch
Made some things break. Need help with testing + bugfixes
borked stuffs:

Accessing paths without trailing slashes, e.g. /submit (instead of /submit/)

Still a lot of legacy WebOb responses (such as webob.exc.HTTPFound() HTTPForbidden() left)

API
Delivered to mrn.is, tryggvib will test it and get back with feedback.
Working, still a lot of room for improvements.
Mostly done, usable, still room for improvements. Example applications:

** Has anyone looked at the Plugin Writer's Guide, yet?
** Will wants to add a "Contributor's Guide" to docs/ which he'd update from the wiki before every release
* Is there a way to improve our unit tests and motivation to write them?
** Simulating a browser by the way of [http://phantomjs.org/ PhantomJS], [http://seleniumhq.org/ Selenium] instead of having code simulating other code against itself might be more natural to write and even more testing the actual application.

** How did this release process go?
*** We should talk about that conference.
** What's left to clean up?
*** Mongokit->SQL "style" query conversion?
*** Other cruft code?
* What are our next goals?
** Plugins
** Federation
** Favoriting
*** Take that, Pinterest! ;)
** Galleries
** Theming
*** Using sass would be neat
** Access restrictions
*** User management, or having a "secret url" that is not in the photo index that you can share with friends and generate as needed for any media type
** What about traffic? Some of us will host GMG on limited plans.
** Some kind of coding guidelines? Do we have a philosophy like "Keep it Simple, Stupid"
*** This concerns things like: Should plugins land in core eventually, do we want to support ALL THE MEDIA TYPES, ...
** Podcasting support?
** Things that have been hanging???
** Bugtrackers and milestone?
** More??? We should organize things!

=== 2011-12 (held on 2011-12-03) ===

[http://mediagoblin.org/irclogs/irc_meeting_2011-12-03.txt IRC log]

* We plan to create a plugin system. Do we want to create that soon or push it off until things settle a bit more? ([[User:Willkg|Willkg]] 08:54, 10 November 2011 (EST))
* [[Feature Ideas]]: What should we do about the wiki page? Keep it and have it as a monthly topic for "what next"? Convert everything to long waiting bugs?
* Possibility of an [[SQL Database Backend]]?
*: 'executive summary' (well, you should read the long docs): "We could move to sql. It's probably replacing one type of pain by another type of pain, but those are somewhat comparable. Leaving the main question: Do we want to occupy our main devs for some long time with this task and loose momentum?"
* Schendje's [http://wiki.mediagoblin.org/Feature_Ideas/Activities activities proposal]
* "Coming up next" blogpost draft by Deb Nicholson
* Jef's requests:
** Ticket #466 "Use of "Submit" in site copy is sterile and not as friendly and welcoming as it could be". I'd really like to change this soon to something more suitable. How can we improve the wording here? Some alternatives have been mentioned in the bug report, but which one should we pick? Link: http://bugs.foocorp.net/issues/466
** The concept and naming of "favourites". We'll (hopefully) be able to "favourite" media soon, which I *think* means that 1) it'll work like a "I like this" comment, a quick token of appreciation, 2) it'll be added to your list of favourites so you can save and promote it, and 3) we could maybe use the number of favourites as a ranking. What I'd like to know is: is that the intended purpose? If so, should we name them favo(u)rites or something else? "Like", "love", "save", "appreciate", "heart", "high five" and many more could all be contenders. And the name should be consistent with the action and purpose, of course. So I'd like to clear up how and why we will use favourites and what we should call them.

* What happened in the last month, what was good, what could be better next time?
** Release:
*** Good: 0.1.0 released!
*** Bad: postponing vs not postponing
** Sites and deployment documentation:
*** Good: new mediagoblin.org
*** Good: deployment documentation
*** Bad: py-bcrypt’s site was down just after the release, so the virtualenv deployment didn’t work, and it wasn’t clear how to fix it.
** Live instances:
*** Joar has a live instance!
*** But what does it mean? Should ordinary users start using it?
**** Details at [[User:Joar/mg.wandborg.se]] -- [[User:Joar|Joar]] 17:01, 6 November 2011 (EST)
*** nyergler added a note about "heartbeat"/status to API notes
* What should be done next month?
* Starting real work on federation (via OStatus)... and do we split any of this work out into its own library?
* An API
* Creative Commons licensing tools
* Merging in the multimedia/video branch
*: (this is *very close* already actually thanks to the hard work of Joar Wandborg! But we need some help on the gstreamer front to fix a few issues... if you or someone you know is an expert in this area we could really use their help to make the videos that come out smoother!)
* Rollover items from 0.1.0
* Multiple file upload interface
* Drag and drop uploads interface (probably related!)

=== 2011-10 (held on 2011-10-01) ===

[http://mediagoblin.org/irclogs/irc_meeting_2011-10-01.txt IRC log]

This month's meeting was a quickly announced short meeting. The project is getting back on track and next month's meeting will be scheduled more properly. A bunch of people were around.

The most important decisions:
* The project will keep monthly releases. They're the heartbeat of the project.
* Release 0.1.0 this sunday/monday.
* New website will hopefully be deployed in the next few days.
* And the following things are planned to happen during this month: Most importantly federation. The developers have decided to make up their minds on what federation aactually should mean for MediaGoblin. Concerning code, probably "activity streams" are the first goal. If there is no (good) python library for this, a new stand alone library may be created. If so, a name for it has to be found. It should have something about communication in it. And the other thing to happen during this month is an ongoing discussion about "bus factor".

** The concept and naming of "favourites". We'll (hopefully) be able to "favourite" media soon, which I *think* means that 1) it'll work like a "I like this" comment, a quick token of appreciation, 2) it'll be added to your list of favourites so you can save and promote it, and 3) we could maybe use the number of favourites as a ranking. What I'd like to know is: is that the intended purpose? If so, should we name them favo(u)rites or something else? "Like", "love", "save", "appreciate", "heart", "high five" and many more could all be contenders. And the name should be consistent with the action and purpose, of course. So I'd like to clear up how and why we will use favourites and what we should call them.

This month's meeting was a quickly announced short meeting. The project is getting back on track and next month's meeting will be scheduled more properly. A bunch of people were around.

The most important decisions:
* The project will keep monthly releases. They're the heartbeat of the project.
* Release 0.1.0 this sunday/monday.
* New website will hopefully be deployed in the next few days.
* And the following things are planned to happen during this month: Most importantly federation. The developers have decided to make up their minds on what federation aactually should mean for MediaGoblin. Concerning code, probably "activity streams" are the first goal. If there is no (good) python library for this, a new stand alone library may be created. If so, a name for it has to be found. It should have something about communication in it. And the other thing to happen during this month is an ongoing discussion about "bus factor".

* Where to put Developer docs?
*: Our Documentation for developers is currently a bit split. Some are on the wiki, some in the main docs. There are pros and cons for both. We should consider where to put things. One place? Which? Or decide on an individual basis?
*: Good about main docs: Easy to integrate source code doc strings. That way internal api docs can be kept mostly up to date.
*: Good about wiki: Doesn't feel so "set in stone".
* wiki spam: Do we want to change something?

AGENDA

0.3.2 release

What existing features need to be wrapped up?

Werkzeug switch

What time might we do the release?

Congrats to Deb from the mediagoblin team! Congrats de Deb!

Fundraising campaign

Keeping things going mid-campaign

You have questions? I have answers, kinda :)

Getting new contributors involved

Plugins? New features?

-- http://wiki.mediagoblin.org/Meeting#Next_Meeting
Fundraising stuff
Things are going great mostly when people check it out!
But how to spread the word?

should contact more podcasts, etc

currently working with FSF on this

need community to spread the word!

List of places already spreaded list and contacted

VideoThumbnailerMarkII
New video thumbnailer, rewritten to try to eliminate a bug in the old one where processing would stall.
New bugs introduce (of course ;)
Collections
Merged - Thanks aaronw!
WebOb => Werkzeug switch
Made some things break. Need help with testing + bugfixes
borked stuffs:

Accessing paths without trailing slashes, e.g. /submit (instead of /submit/)

Still a lot of legacy WebOb responses (such as webob.exc.HTTPFound() HTTPForbidden() left)

API
Delivered to mrn.is, tryggvib will test it and get back with feedback.
Working, still a lot of room for improvements.
Mostly done, usable, still room for improvements. Example applications:

0.3.2 release

What existing features need to be wrapped up?

Werkzeug switch

What time might we do the release?

Congrats to Deb from the mediagoblin team! Congrats de Deb!

Fundraising campaign

Keeping things going mid-campaign

You have questions? I have answers, kinda :)

Getting new contributors involved

Plugins? New features?

-- http://wiki.mediagoblin.org/Meeting#Next_Meeting
Fundraising stuff
Things are going great mostly when people check it out!
But how to spread the word?

should contact more podcasts, etc

currently working with FSF on this

need community to spread the word!

List of places already spreaded list and contacted

VideoThumbnailerMarkII
New video thumbnailer, rewritten to try to eliminate a bug in the old one where processing would stall.
New bugs introduce (of course ;)
Collections
Merged - Thanks aaronw!
WebOb => Werkzeug switch
Made some things break. Need help with testing + bugfixes
borked stuffs:

Accessing paths without trailing slashes, e.g. /submit (instead of /submit/)

Still a lot of legacy WebOb responses (such as webob.exc.HTTPFound() HTTPForbidden() left)

API
Delivered to mrn.is, tryggvib will test it and get back with feedback.
Working, still a lot of room for improvements.
Mostly done, usable, still room for improvements. Example applications:

* We plan to create a plugin system. Do we want to create that soon or push it off until things settle a bit more? ([[User:Willkg|Willkg]] 08:54, 10 November 2011 (EST))
* [[Feature Ideas]]: What should we do about the wiki page? Keep it and have it as a monthly topic for "what next"? Convert everything to long waiting bugs?
* Possibility of an [[SQL Database Backend]]?
*: 'executive summary' (well, you should read the long docs): "We could move to sql. It's probably replacing one type of pain by another type of pain, but those are somewhat comparable. Leaving the main question: Do we want to occupy our main devs for some long time with this task and loose momentum?"
* Schendje's [http://wiki.mediagoblin.org/Feature_Ideas/Activities activities proposal]
* "Coming up next" blogpost draft by Deb Nicholson
* Jef's requests:
** Ticket #466 "Use of "Submit" in site copy is sterile and not as friendly and welcoming as it could be". I'd really like to change this soon to something more suitable. How can we improve the wording here? Some alternatives have been mentioned in the bug report, but which one should we pick? Link: http://bugs.foocorp.net/issues/466
** The concept and naming of "favourites". We'll (hopefully) be able to "favourite" media soon, which I *think* means that 1) it'll work like a "I like this" comment, a quick token of appreciation, 2) it'll be added to your list of favourites so you can save and promote it, and 3) we could maybe use the number of favourites as a ranking. What I'd like to know is: is that the intended purpose? If so, should we name them favo(u)rites or something else? "Like", "love", "save", "appreciate", "heart", "high five" and many more could all be contenders. And the name should be consistent with the action and purpose, of course. So I'd like to clear up how and why we will use favourites and what we should call them.

* What happened in the last month, what was good, what could be better next time?
** Release:
*** Good: 0.1.0 released!
*** Bad: postponing vs not postponing
** Sites and deployment documentation:
*** Good: new mediagoblin.org
*** Good: deployment documentation
*** Bad: py-bcrypt’s site was down just after the release, so the virtualenv deployment didn’t work, and it wasn’t clear how to fix it.
** Live instances:
*** Joar has a live instance!
*** But what does it mean? Should ordinary users start using it?
**** Details at [[User:Joar/mg.wandborg.se]] -- [[User:Joar|Joar]] 17:01, 6 November 2011 (EST)
*** nyergler added a note about "heartbeat"/status to API notes
* What should be done next month?
* Starting real work on federation (via OStatus)... and do we split any of this work out into its own library?
* An API
* Creative Commons licensing tools
* Merging in the multimedia/video branch
*: (this is *very close* already actually thanks to the hard work of Joar Wandborg! But we need some help on the gstreamer front to fix a few issues... if you or someone you know is an expert in this area we could really use their help to make the videos that come out smoother!)
* Rollover items from 0.1.0
* Multiple file upload interface
* Drag and drop uploads interface (probably related!)

=== 2011-10 (held on 2011-10-01) ===

[http://mediagoblin.org/irclogs/irc_meeting_2011-10-01.txt IRC log]

This month's meeting was a quickly announced short meeting. The project is getting back on track and next month's meeting will be scheduled more properly. A bunch of people were around.

The most important decisions:
* The project will keep monthly releases. They're the heartbeat of the project.
* Release 0.1.0 this sunday/monday.
* New website will hopefully be deployed in the next few days.
* And the following things are planned to happen during this month: Most importantly federation. The developers have decided to make up their minds on what federation aactually should mean for MediaGoblin. Concerning code, probably "activity streams" are the first goal. If there is no (good) python library for this, a new stand alone library may be created. If so, a name for it has to be found. It should have something about communication in it. And the other thing to happen during this month is an ongoing discussion about "bus factor".

* Possibility of an [[SQL Database Backend]]?
*: 'executive summary' (well, you should read the long docs): "We could move to sql. It's probably replacing one type of pain by another type of pain, but those are somewhat comparable.

** Ticket #466 "Use of "Submit" in site copy is sterile and not as friendly and welcoming as it could be". I'd really like to change this soon to something more suitable. How can we improve the wording here? Some alternatives have been mentioned in the bug report, but which one should we pick? Link: http://bugs.foocorp.net/issues/466
** The concept and naming of "favourites". We'll (hopefully) be able to "favourite" media soon, which I *think* means that 1) it'll work like a "I like this" comment, a quick token of appreciation, 2) it'll be added to your list of favourites so you can save and promote it, and 3) we could maybe use the number of favourites as a ranking. What I'd like to know is: is that the intended purpose? If so, should we name them favo(u)rites or something else? "Like", "love", "save", "appreciate", "heart", "high five" and many more could all be contenders. And the name should be consistent with the action and purpose, of course. So I'd like to clear up how and why we will use favourites and what we should call them.

* What happened in the last month, what was good, what could be better next time?
** Release:
*** Good: 0.1.0 released!
*** Bad: postponing vs not postponing
** Sites and deployment documentation:
*** Good: new mediagoblin.org
*** Good: deployment documentation
*** Bad: py-bcrypt’s site was down just after the release, so the virtualenv deployment didn’t work, and it wasn’t clear how to fix it.
** Live instances:
*** Joar has a live instance!
*** But what does it mean? Should ordinary users start using it?
**** Details at [[User:Joar/mg.wandborg.se]] -- [[User:Joar|Joar]] 17:01, 6 November 2011 (EST)
*** nyergler added a note about "heartbeat"/status to API notes
* What should be done next month?
* Starting real work on federation (via OStatus)... and do we split any of this work out into its own library?
* An API
* Creative Commons licensing tools
* Merging in the multimedia/video branch
*: (this is *very close* already actually thanks to the hard work of Joar Wandborg! But we need some help on the gstreamer front to fix a few issues... if you or someone you know is an expert in this area we could really use their help to make the videos that come out smoother!)
* Rollover items from 0.1.0
* Multiple file upload interface
* Drag and drop uploads interface (probably related!)

=== 2011-10 (held on 2011-10-01) ===

[http://mediagoblin.org/irclogs/irc_meeting_2011-10-01.txt IRC log]

This month's meeting was a quickly announced short meeting. The project is getting back on track and next month's meeting will be scheduled more properly. A bunch of people were around.

The most important decisions:
* The project will keep monthly releases. They're the heartbeat of the project.
* Release 0.1.0 this sunday/monday.
* New website will hopefully be deployed in the next few days.
* And the following things are planned to happen during this month: Most importantly federation. The developers have decided to make up their minds on what federation aactually should mean for MediaGoblin. Concerning code, probably "activity streams" are the first goal. If there is no (good) python library for this, a new stand alone library may be created. If so, a name for it has to be found. It should have something about communication in it. And the other thing to happen during this month is an ongoing discussion about "bus factor".

GSOC 2014

2014-02-25T21:03:57Z

Aleksejrs: tried to group ideas

We are hoping to participate in GSOC 2014 under the GNU umbrella.

= Possible projects =

== Input, processing ==

=== Gstreamer audio/video code cleanup ===

Investigate and fix the issues with thumbnailing in the video processing pipeline. Investigate the rest of the gstreamer code, clean up and document.

Show progress on gstreamer pipeline.

=== Processing panel improvements ===

Could be combined with the above.

Better indication of the status of media processing. This includes better representation of current processing progress, as well as representation of possible errors.

=== Submission by email ===
https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/663

== Output, media-specific stuff with user-facing parts ==

=== Client-side audio rendering ===

This one's a low-maybe on priorities, compared to others. The goal is to make it themable.

Switch the audio spectrogram rendering to be done on the user's end. During processing, the relevant data should be extracted and stored as metadata, but should be presented to the user.

(Could possibly be combined with the above two; student should talk to paroneayea on IRC before doing so and also get some sense of the existing processing code)

=== Media embedding and OEmbed support ===

=== Subtitles support ===
For video and audio. https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/750

=== A way for a reader to see thumbnails/resized versions in other sizes ===
Generating multiple versions, like Flickr or MediaWiki can.
https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/260

=== Support For Ogg Vorbis+Theora ===
https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/567

== Multi-file output stuff ==

=== Podcasting support / new feed library? ===

Switch to or write a new feed library that is capable of handling enclosures and port MediaGoblin to it.

=== Nested collections ===
https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/522

=== Slideshow ===
* For images? https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/574
* Audio/video https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/701

=== Enable "favoriting" of media ===
https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/744
(compat see also: "Favoriting across instances" https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/604 )

=== Cross-instance collections/galleries (think Flickr pool) ===
https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/605

=== Tag clouds ===
https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/183

== Port migrations to Alembic ==

Currently we use sqlalchemy-migrate, but it's fairly outdated and unmaintained

Port the migration infrastructure to using [http://alembic.readthedocs.org/ Alembic] instead.

This includes making sure that sqlite can be continued to be used with MediaGoblin's migrations (which may require working on some upstream contributions... this is unclear at the time of writing).

== Import/export ==
* "Liberate my data" (data export button): https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/600
* Import from Flickr (if not implemented yet; note also possible API changes): https://issues.mediagoblin.org/ticket/229

== Python 3 port ==
