so, are the separate folders in a release different sides? different media?
2012-06-01 15343, 2012

(they have titles, so media might be most appropriate)
2012-06-01 15335, 2012

and the numbering in each folder restarts at 1.

there are some editors (like me) called "autoeditors" with a few additional priviledges.
