Hello.
I'm adding libmusicbrainz 3.0.1 functionality to my application.
When i'm trying to get release country and release date from 
ReleaseEvent object, i get the following results:

1) getCountry() returns an empty string
2) getDate() returns a string that is made of country and date
	examples: 
	Artist: Alice Cooper, Title: Hey Stoopid, getDate() returns "US 1991-07-02"
	Artist: Alice Cooper, Title: Special Forces, getDate() returns "US 1981-09"

3) for some releases getDate() returns a string made of several countries and dates
	example:
	Artist: Alice Cooper, Title: Muscle of Love, getDate() returns "AU 1973 GB 1973-12 US 1974-01"

Is it supposed to be like that or will be corrected later?

P.S. Sorry for my English, it's not my spoken language.
