Since any existing client already uses the cddb format, I completely
agree that we have no need to release cddb submission client code.
Naturally the format must be supported for a while at the server side.
But we should mark it for extinction at the nearest feasible date
(depending on client maintainers feedback).
I was wondering about client storage. It will probably end up as a cache
server, storing the n recently retrieved entries (with n retricted by
the user) and optionally updating its stored data with the nearest
mirror from time to time.
I also think we should take our time, write down some specs is an
organized way and let the effort roll-out naturally. If we can replicate
CDDB functions now using GPLed code, we can think the new system slowly
and garantee the quality.
We should also agree now that www.freeamp.org/cdindex is the official
website for this project. And unify the mailing lists (at the list
owners discretion).
