#REDIRECT [[Proposals]]

This page is an attempt to list all 'current' or 'active' [[Proposals|proposals]] on the [[Style Mailing List|StyleMailingList]]. Often, proposals do reach some sort of consensus, but are never followed up on, the goal of this page is to keep track of those proposals so they are not forgotten, and can be revisited at the appropriate time.

Formal RFCs on the [[Style Mailing List|StyleMailingList]] are tracked here, no other proposals should be added.

NOTE: the current name and location "kuno/[[Current Style Proposals|CurrentStyleProposals]]" should change at some point, i would like some suggestions on what this page should be called (just leave comments here or tell me on irc :).

Disclaimer: this is not an automated list, but I will try to keep it up to date. If you think some information is out of date or incorrect, notify me (warp on irc, or [mailto:kuno@frob.nl kuno@frob.nl]) and I will look into it (or, change it yourself, this is a wiki :).

<span id="kuno01"></span>
==RFC: change video game data cdroms from soundtrack to other==

Discussion has probably died out, needs to be summarized.

<span id="luks03"></span>
==RFC: new vocal type - "rap"==

consensus, waiting for RFV.

<span id="aaron03"></span>
==RFC: ClassicalReleaseLanguage==

Out of the people who voiced their opinion on this proposal, Alex Dupuy doesn't see the need for it and Olivier is not in favour. I assume this proposal has been abandoned due to lack of support.

<span id="aaron02"></span>
==RFC: Classical works for multiple instruments==

Only three people participated in the discussion, with no clear support for the proposal. I expect the author has abandoned the proposal, but please correct me if I am wrong --kuno.

<span id="brianfr01"></span>
==RFC: Change Default Data Quality==

No consensus was reached on the actual proposal in its original form. However, a lot of valuable suggestions were made by various people, the proposal should probably be rewritten to take those suggestions into account and resubmitted as an RFC.

(IMO, [[User:DonRedman|DonRedman]] has an insightful [http://lists.musicbrainz.org/pipermail/musicbrainz-style/2007-July/005067.html post on the proposal]. --kuno).

<span id="gecks02"></span>
==RFC: Adding {instrument} and {vocals} to 'Recorded By' AR==

Discussion died, no clear consensus reached as far as i can see. No summary of the discussion.

<span id="bogdan03"></span>
==RFC: "changed name to" AR==

In general, people seemed to be in favour of this proposal -- but concerned that the AR will be abused to split up artists which wouldn't be split up without the AR. The discussion died out, wasn't summarized or otherwise followed up later.

<span id="gecks01"></span>
==RFC: Reissue Produced By" and "Compilation Produced By==

No discussion took place. No further action was taken.

<span id="bogdan02"></span>
==RFC: performance dates and locations==

Discussion has died on the [[Mailing List|MailingList]] and died or slowed down on the wiki pages. I don't see a clear consensus yet on the implementation details.

<span id="bogdan01"></span>
==RFC: instrument-related AR changes==

No discussion took place. No further action was taken.

<span id="luks02"></span>
==RFC: Conductor AR Changes==

Discussion died. There seem to be no objections to the proposal, however the discussion was not summarized nor do I see an RFV for the proposal.

<span id="luks01"></span>
==RFV: "has a blog at" AR==

No vetoes on the RFV, but not implemented yet afaics.

<span id="kilu01"></span>
==RFC: IMDb AR change==

No discussion took place. No further action was taken.

<span id="panda01"></span>
==RFC: Bad Terminology: bootleg==

Apparently enough consensus was reached to prepare the wiki for changes: [http://lists.musicbrainz.org/pipermail/musicbrainz-style/2007-May/004841.html http://lists.musicbrainz.org/pipermail/musicbrainz-style/2007-May/004841.html] , but looking at the history, no actual changes were made.

<span id="aaron01"></span>
==RFC: New Release Status: "Upcoming"==

Consensus reached according to [http://lists.musicbrainz.org/pipermail/musicbrainz-style/2007-May/004726.html http://lists.musicbrainz.org/pipermail/musicbrainz-style/2007-May/004726.html] , see also [http://lists.musicbrainz.org/pipermail/musicbrainz-style/2007-May/004840.html http://lists.musicbrainz.org/pipermail/musicbrainz-style/2007-May/004840.html] . No further work seems to have been done on this after the initial consensus was reached.

Related activity: [[Not Yet Released Releases|NotYetReleasedReleases]]

Also, I ''think'' the issue of upcoming releases was also discussed on the style mailinglist within the context of Data Quality (setting upcoming releases to low data quality), but cannot find the thread right now --kuno.

<span id="gecks03"></span>
==x (disc 1) & x (disc 2), vs x & x (bonus disc)==

The proposed changes to [[Bonus Disc|BonusDisc]] were first discussed and written in may 2006, amended in september 2006, and a call for further discussion in may 2007 (with no responses). Some issues raised in the september discussion and on the wiki page haven't been addressed by the proposal.
