Hello again Bill and anyone else who's following this debate... Attached is an attempt at specifying a set of enhancement requests. I've broken it down into a series of bite-sized chunks (though the last one is a bit bigger than the others).
The idea is to make substantial improvement for classical users without breaking too much of the current technology. Note that we could certainly go a lot further, but I figured that incremental is good. The separate requests are: (1) Add "Performer" contributor type (2) Allow "Ensemble" and "orchestra" as equivalent to "Band" (3) Expand the Advanced Search function in the Web interface (4) Allow browsing by additional tags (eg Conductor) (5) Add new multi-level browsing capability I think I've incorporated just about everything of my and Bill's ideas, with just a couple of notes: - I don't think we need the web page to construct a custom browse pattern if we have a fully flexible browse function - I've left out the idea of a new "Work" tag for the moment, although I can certainly see how it might be handy. Trouble is, it doesn't seem to be in general use anywhere? Debate and new versions most welcome. Note in particular that Multi-Level Browsing should be of interest not just to Classical users! When we have some consensus I would hope can post this as an official enhancement request.
