A few days ago, I initiated a conversation with Jonathan Walther to
seek his advice on how he might tag a CD that I ogg'ed. Out of this
discussion, we decided to make a couple of changes to the proposed
standard.
1) A new LABELNO tag was added to the list. This would contain the
record label's catalogue number. Generally available on the face of
the CD. Probably more useful than an EAN or a UPN.
2) The PART tag was moved from the list of singletons to the list of
multiples. It is not infrequent for an extended, multipart work to
occupy a single track on CD. Occurs most often on classical discs, but
there are pop examples, as well. The description of each section of
the work may be stored in separate PART tag.
Jonathan and I, absolutely confident in our assessments, have already
incorporated these changes into the proposal. We just thought you
should know. :D
Jokes aside, the updated document is available at the URL below -
ignore the "Last updated Thu Jan 31" message, it really was updated a
few days ago; Jonathan, you might want to fix that. Further discussion
is welcome.
