Products - Phase II
So it's been over a year since I first implemented the product-linking system, and I've done very little work on it since then. I think we've got some solid answers to questions that I had back then, and it's time to push this feature to completion. First, I'd like to thank you guys for using the system so far, particularly Cedille, Seanne, and CHz, who really kept it rolling long after I got lazy. Anyway, I've put together a short design document for the next phase of this. Most of it is notional, and definitely open to discussion. A few things need to be hammered out, and any new ideas are welcome:
1. Linking to Releases We need to be able to optionally link an album through the product to one or more releases. This indicates that music on that album comes specifically from the specified releases.
2. Product link classification We would like to provide metadata that describes how an album relates to a product. This classification resembles the album classification. Quote:
3. Product-Artist Cross-reference This is the big one right here, adding something that people have wanted for a long time, and something that effectively closes the loop on our coverage. (Populating this table may also require some discussion with other sites.)
4. Product (and release) page design Mostly, we need to figure out what to do with the big space to the right of the logo.
5. Deployment
6. Long range future project: Cataloging technical details for game's music This is very long range, and difficult to plan for, but it would be very cool. It's also something nobody has ever really tried to catalog.
