The reason that we are focusing on albums right now is because the first draft of audio-info seems to be done. Nobody seems to have raised any issues related to existing elements in the haudio draft in several weeks. We talked about each element of haudio that was under contention in the following discussions: http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-new/2007-May/000252.html http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-new/2007-May/000305.html http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-new/2007-May/000316.html http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-new/2007-May/000329.html http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-new/2007-May/000342.html http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-new/2007-May/000349.html http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-new/2007-May/000377.html I believe that the basic haudio draft addresses all of the needs demonstrated by audio-info-examples. The only thing that is left to do is address albums. We need to address albums because they have a very heavy representation in the audio-info-examples page. > Can we focus on solving this base case and then build from there? I believe that we have done a good job at addressing the base cases. The only reason I am not saying that we've "solved" the haudio base case is because you don't "solve" the problem in the first draft. We need to publish something so that people can start playing around with it and what we have now can address most of the examples (as long as we have some way of specifying albums). The draft doesn't need to address every issue under the sun... we will iterate on the concept as long as a need is demonstrated. We are doing what you are suggesting, Joe - we've done a good job at addressing the base case. Now we're seeing if we can build on top of the base case - audio albums are the first step. -- manu _______________________________________________ microformats-new mailing list [email protected] http://microformats.org/mailman/listinfo/microformats-new
