Morbus, while I got your announcement, it seems I'm having stuff bounce back from the sourceforge lists (cc-ing here). A message I sent to the libdb list was trying to understand how represent the FRBR for my needs. I've gotten farther with it, now pasted again below. Do I have it right? Also, a question: why a separate "character" table? Are not characters (virtual) people with perhaps a different role? > They'll be a number of pre-built ... roles (Director, Writer, Special > Effects, etc.), and annotations (Chapters, Review, Summary, etc.) as > well. On the first, have you looked at the marc relator list? It's quite extensive, and covers most of what I need (though is missing a few things too). I'm big on annotation (my own) myself, but don't you need a way to track *who* is doing the annotating?
