I assume that's supposed to be parsed like "MetaBrainz operates the MusicBrainz (and a number of related open data) projects", but it's really awkward

Given a CDDB id, can I look up a release in MB? Or do I need the full CD TOC? (Did it used to be possible, but is no more due to loss of freedb indexes?)

I've been keeping up with forums and IRC. I came home from Sweden late Wednesday and caught up on reported editor from the last few days. Just got a reply back from one of them, so their editing rights were reinstated.
Oh, and I posted something on the forums, but more on that shortly.

Especially a lot of issues about the BBC suddenly forcing people to enter their MusicBrainz ID, and not making clear what that is
2017-02-27 05839, 2017
reosarevok
(which, to be fair, neither do we, anywhere very obvious, probably because we never expected people to come specifically looking for their own without knowing what it is)
2017-02-27 05806, 2017
LordSputnik is here
2017-02-27 05809, 2017
reosarevok wonders if the "MBID" in Details should at least be renamed to MusicBrainz ID to be a bit more clear, although that's still kinda hidden
2017-02-27 05817, 2017

I began digging into learning about each of our products, although halted a bit while attempting to update the logo on the CAA website. This seemingly simple small update, lead to an education in wiki edits and a discussion about our wiki pages in general, of which I still have a lot to learn about. I will be continuing my education on our products this

I spent quite a bit of time untangling the saga of zvooq and attempting to try to make sense out of a very soap-opera-drama-esque business. I have attempted at fairly deep intelligence on the matter and am hoping this gives us a positive direction at recovering the funds they owe us, which would help us immensely.
