Hi Antranig,
You could use the exhibit id from the McCord feed as a domain-specific
stable key.
Cheers,
Hugues

I might have broken this myself by recent changes... but my best
impression is that a few (one?) of the Couch views are not functioning
correctly, perhaps as a result of the "always output strings" changes of
this evening.
The following URL is one of those issued to Couch - intermittently I
managed to get a version of it issued by the system that was actually
encoded in ISO-8859 but this seems to have now passed.
http://142.150.154.59:5984/mccord_exhibitions/_design/exhibitions/_view/view?key={"title":"Simply%2BMontr%25C3%25A9al%253A%2BGlimpses%2Bof%2Ba%2BUnique%2BCity","lang":"en"}
The return value from Couch is
{"total_rows":10,"offset":8,"rows":[]}
I should mention that this is an entirely unsatisfactory kind of URL but
I guess we have known this for a while - I have tried to make the barest
beginnings this evening to a more reasonable way of mapping state onto a
URL space but it will have to wait till post-pilot to see more work.
Could I suggest in the meantime that instead of issuing titles in URLs
we instead use document UUIDs, which will head off risks of encoding
issues of this kind? Titles are not a stable element of the data domain.
In truth, we should be deriving a proper domain-specific stable key, but
I don't know enough about the McCord set to find this right now.
Also, that this URL should be redesigned to read
http://142.150.154.59:5984/mccord_exhibitions/_design/exhibitions/_view/view?key=docID&lang=en
Apologies if I broke this view myself, I scratched my head a while about
it :P
Cheers,
Antranig.
