We're not duplicating releases though - at least no more than before. None of the edits I've seen have been rejecting new release events, just removing old ones. Perhaps the cause is because the release event is now higher in the chain... previously they were "after" the tracklist; now they're before - but in a list with all other tracklists for that release. To me what this boils down to is that you're deleting information because you don't like how it's displayed. And I don't think that should be the first option here, especially not so soon after NGS has been released. - Si _______________________________________________ MusicBrainz-style mailing list MusicBrainz-style@lists.musicbrainz.org http://lists.musicbrainz.org/mailman/listinfo/musicbrainz-style
