Description michael 2005-03-01 16:51:27 UTC

Formats that user vorbis comments (ogg vorbis and flac at the moment) often use
a DATE tag that is more details than just the year.  Currently, the contents of
DATE are stuffed into the YEAR field as is.  Now that things like "Browse Years"
are available, this makes for some unusual listings.

This is fairly crude, it doesn't even attempt to figure out what date format
you're using. Fortunetly, most date fields will have a four digit year, and not
another four digit number in the field. So it basically works.

Fixed in subversion change 2290.

There are 536 bugs in the database with targets of '---' that were fixed prior to new year 2006.  I am setting them to targets of 6.2.1 to keep them from showing up in my queries.
