My PostgreSQL implementation of cddbd seems functional, though I am sure that there are bugs left to be discovered. There are also a few unresolved issues, as well as efficiency concerns. This implementation also allows multiple artists for each disc and track. I have some questions about testing. I have a few possible steps to take. Start receiving updates from the master database, if this is allowed. This should test for problems with regular updates, and verify that the server can handle the load and the files which are received. Make the server available for public use. This would not be an official server. Updates on this server would not propagate elsewhere until it becomes an official release. Users could verify that the form of a file looks reasonable. Updates could be done with the right tools. I have a machine which is running the server now, but its DSL connection is a bit flaky. The server is currently down. I could make this available, and fix the DSL, or I could look for another site which is willing to host a PostgreSQL cddbd server for testing purposes. Release the software. This really should be done soon, with plans for regular updates. Publicize my TODO list. Hope someone reads this email and responds. -- Kevin Dalley [email protected]
