For All GFA staff -> VGMdb Alpha launch

I'd like to put out a call for all of the current GFA/VGMdb staff. We've got the former functionality of GFA fully restored and repackaged as the new VGMdb, and have opened it up for Alpha testing. During this time, I'd like to ask our staff to come back to the newly invigorated site, and start testing things out, reporting bugs or inconsistancies.

I know that it's been quite a long time since this project began with quite a flurry of energy, and then petered into oblivion. I'd like to apologize for what turned into a 3 month delay, and promise that I'll devote my utmost effort into getting the site ready for public launch.

Note: I created a few accounts manually so that we wouldn't lose album submissions statistics. Please contact me if your account is listed on the Forum Leaders page under "GFA Legacy"

For everyone else, I'll post an announcement here when the private Beta launch occurs, hopefully in a couple of weeks.

Oh Christ, I KNEW I forgot about something.

Have all of the albums from the old database that was built last year been merged into the new database? I looked around a bit to see there were over 4,000 albums added.

Yeah, that's the whole database, minus a few scans that got added in April right before the site went down forever. I still need to fix the collections, though.

Are non-GFA staff supposed to be on the site? I got on some way or other =/

I don't think Collections by ID works for all albums, because only one of four I tried worked.

Also, should the foobar2000 copy code really use the List Index? Shouldn't it use Tracknumber?

Generally, not yet. I've invited a few people over to help test.

One reason, is that I've actually already made some of the accounts, to preserve the update logs. I made your account too, so I'll have to merge the two accounts.

Thanks for the bug reports. I don't have Foobar, so I don't know how that works, but I can check with Blah.
