OK. Let's start now.
Everyone seems like XML-like representations. I think it's a natural
for a representation of CD data. I think that how the back-end stores
it (rdbms, ndbm, xml, object-relational) doesn't particularly matter,
and that adapters can be readily written up to convert back and forth,
losing data as necessary.
Someone posted an XML DTD many months ago that seemed to be generally
liked. Could they repost it?
Once a data type definition is nailed down, we can talk about an API to
get to it.
