But none of this has to > do with SJ. SJ has to adhere to what MB provides. I inquired on musicbrainz IRC, and they seem fairly open to providing some method for submitting track listings. The question seems to be, "what does/do sj/clients-submitting-tracklistings want?" Currently, sj hands off the hard work of submitting the track to the browser (and that's probably as it should be); but, is SJ willing/able to have anything more than dump a URL off to gnome_url_show() (e.g. [somehow] send some POST information to the URL? I was also told that MB does have an undocumented (and unstable, in the sense of "might/will change") method for submitting track info via HTTP GET. Apparently it does tend to run into URL length limits though. What would SJ like to see happen for this? -Alex Mauer "hawke"
