You need to write something called "<Blah>RelationshipType" that looks
like this:
http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/wiki.pl?RemixerRelationshipType
However, that particular page is *very* light on examples. For this
case, I'd want examples more like what's over at:
http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/wiki.pl?ArtistName
Then, you're going to have to brace yourselves for a *lot* of questions,
proof-reading, corrections, and suggestions.
None of this guarantees that the idea will get implemented. It'll just
provide the structure for coming up with the good definitions that Don
and I are insisting on.
I can tell you from experience that nothing seems like it's going to end
up as a big mess until you actually see it running for real. Then it
becomes *real* obvious :-( Writing things down in nice clear sentences
and ridiculous detail is an essential part of the process of coming to
realise just how big a mess it's going to turn out to be...
