Open questions about the schema:

* Why do we have a table called track and a table called recording? What purpose do they serve?
** I think the [[Next_Generation_Schema#Track|NGS]] page explains it well. [[User:LukasLalinsky|Lukáš Lalinský]] 19:45, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
* Why does the recording table have an artist_credit that is not an FK and track does as well, but there its not an FK? Is this a graph error?
** Error in the diagram, it's fixed now. [[User:LukasLalinsky|Lukáš Lalinský]] 19:45, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
* Why do both recording and track have an artist_credit and name?
** Because that's what humans tend to use as identifiers. :) They normally wouldn't know "b98ee5f2-0b07-4da6-913c-acfe19d4578d", but they mostly likely do know what "Thriller by Michael Jackson" is. That's for recordings. I think it's obvious why tracks need to have artist credits and names. [[User:LukasLalinsky|Lukáš Lalinský]] 19:45, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
