I removed all the gems and did a simple install of the chef gem. installed cleanly without issues.

but chef still locks on startup.

yep, blocks in select. again.

do we have any stats about how many of the releases with cover art in the caa do not have a front picture?

Mineo: well, count.release.has_caa - count.release.coverart.caa

or I suppose http://beta.musicbrainz.org/statistics/timeline... is easier

the legend on the right makes it look like that's actually the number of releases with coverart from somewhere - the number of releases with any cover art in the caa?

yeah, it's poorly labeled for that particular view

the count.release.coverart.* are "this release's displayed coverart comes from X source", and count.release.has_caa is releases that have something in the CAA

but the latter is just labeled as "releases with cover art"

ah, ok

but anyway, that's what I was looking for, thanks

it makes more sense on http://beta.musicbrainz.org/statistics/timeline... :)

if you disregard all the artwork we displayed before the caa launched, yes :P

Mineo: http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/MBS-6004 this one?

yes

Good evening, would someone be able to help me with regards to the web service, I would like to know exactly what I need to query in order to pull the album details and then the track details for a particular artist

you're in the right place.. what sort of application are you writing?

well, to obtain the data, I don't mind what I use, ultimately I am going to be storing the data in my own database

I am building a website where people can come and find new music based on what others' have 'tagged'

It is a proof of concept at the moment and I am looking to get a few thousand artists' data. This would take far too long to search manually

Yes but I find it rather confusing, for starters, for ease of reading it would be nice to see the table names bigger than the example heading etc

I have managed to retrieve the ID of an artist, and with that their recordings

But I would like to get a list of all albums by an artist, and then a track listing of those albums
