This is a process working towards a greater release covering a lot of database schema changes and the connected interface and client changes. (started in October 2005)
The changes are related to album groups, track groups, multiple artists and many more issues and produce a lot n:n tables.
At the moment we are in the planing phase so this is FutureWork.
Previous documents addressing those changes are (some only of historical interest):
- SchemaVersion2 (very early proposal from late 2001)
- BoxSet (addressing problems with grouping albums in boxes)
- ReleaseGroups (the proposal on which AlbumRework is mostly based on)
- AlbumHandlingPhilosophy (abandoned by the author in favour of AlbumRework)
The current rework is split into:
- AlbumRework (covering ReleaseTypeRestructuringProposal, ReleaseDataSet, ReleaseRegionStyle)
- TrackGrouping (not yet sanctioned ;))
- ArtistRework
- AdvancedEntity (for creating new entity types like the ones we already have (artists, albums, tracks, URLs))
- GettingRidOfFeaturingArtistStyle (for support of multiple artists of one track/album or alternatives)
