coderangerYou mentioned a few days ago that you had a patch, but the ticket hasn't been updated in 17 months20:32

coderanger(we've been adding a lot of cross-db testing and some other functionality during this sprint, so we could now actually have some level of confidence that the patch won't break any of the other 3)20:34

vikramHello Everyone, not bad, almost 20 people22:28
SlimeyPetehi22:28
vikramI've got a slightly related question for everyone. I know you guys are all very smart RDBMS folk22:28
vikramYou need to store (music) album names into a database22:29
vikramAlbums typically only have 1 artist, but compilation albums ("Greatest Hits") can have more than one artist. Multiple artists can also have albums with the same name22:30
vikramHow do you setup tables, so as to allow you to build a unique list of albums22:31
vikramFor example, clean db, you are going through a folder called Frank Sinatra\Greatest Hits\track%.mp3, you see the first track1.mp3, retrieve the metadata, and create an entry in the album table for Frank Sinatra - Greatest Hits22:32
vikramYou then come across a folder of Dean Martin songs, the metadata says they are from a "Greatest Hits" album, how do you know that this album is a different "Greatest Hits" album, or part of a compilation cd of "Greatest Hits"22:33
vikramNow one method I thought of was to look to see if they are in different file paths, but this doesnt work if you had folders labeled cd1 and cd2 containing songs from a compilation disc22:38
vikramso getting the right combination of references/foreign keys and UNIQUE columns has got me struggling22:38
