They're certainly not one release, they're a series

reosarevok: well, yes. I agree my solution for this particular release is just as wrong as putting them as seperate releases in the same release group :)

*for all -> for each

we really need some proper series support for that to be useful.

In which way?

(we should think of getting proper series support anyway, but still)

if I'm going to view a podcast in musicbrainz, I want to get a list of episodes.

like this: http://musicbrainz.org/doc/Podcast#Possible_int...

warp: Well, call them "Series Name, Date" and you get a nice ordered list

in one cover one artist have 3 diffrent spelling :-D

dubwai: kill the artist and bury his body

("Series Name, Date: Title" if it has a title)

warp: it becomes kind of a problem if each episode should be attributed to a different artist (FACT mixes have that, although I don't know if you'd call that a podcast)

But you could always use a "label" for it if you want a hack

It's a smaller hack than any other option

reosarevok: why would it be a problem?

Because there's nowhere to find them nicely listed

(UI problem rather than data problem)

I don't understand the issue.

You said you wanted a list of episodes

yes

If all podcasts are under the same artist, some simple standardising of titles gives you that list

All in one place

ah, like that

as I said, I think we need some proper series support :D

Of course

But that needs developing :p

After all, one thing is passing a decision through style, and other getting it done

;)

Once we get the proper support, series will need to be adapted to it anyway, so having some temporary guidelines for them wouldn't hurt

WTF? http://musicbrainz.org/edit/14899853

(also, I don't really know how that proper support would be)

what IS a podcast anyway?

i get it some sort of file from the internet but

dubwai: i don't get it.. it's fine the way it is

?

why are yo uchanging VA to the same VA?

and you shouldnt change track artists

dubwai: there's a bug

CatCat: that wtf was like "i didn't do this on purpose!"

If that's what I imagine it is

It should be fixed soon

Mineo: how was i supposed to know :å

Doesn't do anything bad, AFAIK

reosarevok: i must cancel it?

dubwai: yeah, please do

CatCat: you're not supposed to, that's why i told you :)

i would do that ,ye

Mineo: .. what? i am not "supposed" to vote as i see coprrect and fit on a bug edit?

CatCat: to know!

:p

You were not supposed to know :p

this is higlhy confusing and not at all amusing

[4:06pm] Mineo: CatCat: you're not supposed to, that's why i told you :)

that wasn't what happened.. several peopel said more things between th two

Yeah, I'm pointing to what he was replying to

i may misspell, true, but i do so becasue i am trying to type as fast as the conversatino goes

and i am sayign he shoudl be more clear

Fine

dubwai: please cancel

:p

i already do it

:)

it's not my fault

i'm sorry.. but i don't understadn wthis sentence

"CatCat: you're not supposed to, that's why i told you :)"

why am I "not supposed to know"

why do you thne know?

Because nobody had told you before

why is it you then tell me?

While someone had told him

it' i'm not supposed to know, aren't you doing something wrong in telling me?

wtf?

and he said "not supposed to" not "not supposed to know"

i tried to add a series as release group: http://musicbrainz.org/release-group/320e844f-9...

there's probably nothing we can do if the default album cover on amazon is wrong, so it comes out wrong on MB/Picard?

we're not supposed to know

":p"

bricas: probably nope

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000008OIT # the item in question

basically i can't know if i'm the put of a joke here or if i ma just not gettign it

(except checking if the release is actually the same, and removing the link if not)

CatCat: no joke

wich amounts to the same but i digress

ok

You're just not getting it :(

well it's not my fault

But it wasn't mean

Shisma: you're not supposed to add a series as a release group, in most cases. Each volume in the series should have its own release group.

oh-oh, what have I done to CatCat ?:P

well you shoudl think a bit about what looks like "mean"

there is no styleguideline yet

yea that :p

Mineo: confuse him, clearly

so we should experiment with it i think

don't do this when you're serious -> :p <-

kepstin-laptop: this might be related to the podcast issue, for which there's no guideline indeed

:(

Shisma, the intended scope of a release group is a set of releases of the same "album".

we really could use some way of putting series or related releases grouped somehow in general :/

I am made fun of a lot.. it's oftn the spelling or some other thing

:(

ok!

CatCat: I was trying to say "you don't need to know of every single bug the server has, but before dubwai and you confuse yourselves, I'm telling you that dubwai hit abug"

oh!

then *SAY* that then d:

^____^

thanks Mineo

but there is no such thing as an "album" in terms of podcasts

kepstin-laptop: that was what warp was saying :p

yea this. what *is* a podcast?

CatCat: as far as I understand it, both a series of internet-based "radio programs" and each one of those programs

But I've always been bad at definitions

So maybe check the wiki

(Wikipedia, I mean, not MB Wiki(

so like.. would an sixxmixx count?

it was on the radio

Shisma, that's why I put "album" in quotes. I'd say if the contents are substantially different, it's probably not the same release group. (Meaning if there's almost no shared content, or presumably as is the case with a podcast, none.)

orgininally

any guidelines that are created for podcasts would probably also be applicable to other recurring radio programs.

CatCat: some podcasts are also produced as radio shows

kepstin-laptop: I think they would probably be quite broadly applicable myself, yes

But clearly we need some written

CatCat: radio shows are a bit different in that they're usually only played on the radio.

CatCat: of course, nowadays, it's not strange for a radio to play programs and also put them for download (like rinse.fm does)

CatCat: so other people recording them, sometimes only some episodes, sometimes all of them, and make a sort of bootleg release of whatever they recorded.

one of the CBC radio stations in canada has a "podcast" which is to introduce new artists - it consists of just a spoken introduction, followed by a song.

People, a quick OT: http://hiphopmadrid.com/maquetas/d-gomez-3-sent... looking at the cover, would you use "3 sentimientos mixtape", "3 sentimientos: mixtape" or "3 sentimientos" ?

Wow! Double rainbows!

so it reacts to everything, not only publics

reosarevok: "3 sentimientos mixtape", but I don't know what sentimientos means.

"3 feelings"

evening

Is there any information on musicbrainz DB server loads / traffic / hits ?
