muz: i know there is a track in the database which has trackname (remix) , but the ')' is actually a mirrored '(' because most browsers for some reason flip parentheses back to normal if there is LTR on one side and RTL on the other.

warp, stupidly anal firewall issues within the office and my home connection being flaky, so two hops are needed

The loudest is X2, but that's mostly because it has six HDDs inside.

Can anyone clarify exactly what work the BBC are doing - is it just packages?

aCiD2: packages?
2008-05-12 13346, 2008
warp
what i understood at the summit: they're working on what they are calling 'cultural identifiers'
2008-05-12 13329, 2008
aCiD2
Which is another name for package, I thought
2008-05-12 13343, 2008
warp
a cultural identifier is a stable mbid which represents e.g. a certain studio album, all different versions or releases will have that same cultural identifier.
2008-05-12 13354, 2008
aCiD2
Yes, I think that's a package
2008-05-12 13303, 2008
warp
ok, i have no idea what a package is in NGS :)
2008-05-12 13306, 2008
aCiD2
I remember someone saying "which name do we prefer, cultural id or package"
2008-05-12 13308, 2008
aCiD2
heh
2008-05-12 13329, 2008

well, rob doesn't like cultural id, and the BBC is open for suggestions on that topic iirc
2008-05-12 13342, 2008

I don't like it either, but eh, it's just terminology
