Just an update, the server has been stable processing requests fine for
the last week.
Made a modification today so for MusicBrainz releases that arent
currently linked to a Discogs release and that Albunack could not find a
potential Discogs link for there is the option to add a link to a
Discogs release of your choice. Then Albunack will start an Edit Release
session for that release with Discogs releaseid seeded as an external
link AND extra information found in the Discogs release but not found in
MusicBrainz also seeded (such as catno. barcode) .
I added this option because often when browsing the discography you can
see often probable links that were not picked up by Albunack because of
minor differences in data , after checking the releases it is easier to
add the extrav data via the button than doing it manually.

For years Ive wanted to something to make it easier for editors
to get data into MusicBrainz from Discogs in some form or other
but never seemed to have the time. In the past I found the
Import Discogs Greasemonkey Script quite useful but the major
difficulty has been finding releases to add in the first case,
and Geordi did not quite get to what I was hoping for so in the
last month I have been working on something and now I have beta
