Promote muon

[paneq]

Write blogpost or record video on how to use muon daily.

Thanks for submitting this issue. I like the idea of recording a video. I'm also thinking about a lightning talk at DRUG at some point.

However, I don't want to encourage people to use muon yet, at least not until database format stabilizes. I have some ideas that will totally break backwards compatibility... let's wait a little...

[paneq]

You worry too much. Writing migrations is easy :) Talk about those ideas at @drugpl . Get feedback early :)

[paneq]

Here is my idea to you: Set yourself a deadline for wroc_love.rb lightning talk :)

[jdudek]

Yeah, I was thinking about wroc_love.rb too ;-)

Now I should spend more time coding than talking about muon future...

What is your idea for db format. I think YAML serialized would be uber simple. However if you wish to transfer it to remote host (ex to store and compute stats) then it would be dangerous (aka recent rails security problems). So i think maybe JSON ? It would be good imho for freestyle key:value pairs. What do you think ?

[jdudek]

The idea is to use Git as the database (similar to git-notes), which gives us pushes for free and is funny (imagine muon rebase). You may want to check gitdb branch.

I know that you want to use Git as database and it sounds cool. Just wondering about what to store inside of it?

Currently we store things like 2013-01-14 23:16:50 +0100,2013-01-15 00:11:20 +0100. Instead i would prefer having JSON or YAML stored inside git.

Aa, ok ;) I don't know yet. Either some simple text format or JSON/YAML. I'd like to have human-editable messages and JSON is not perfect for that.
