Martin,

I want to make sure the concerns you raise about hAudio's re-use of fn are not lost: "I dont like "fn"  because: ..."

Please be sure to include your 1,2,3 points in your comments on the issue in the wiki.

Thanks,

Tantek

Well said Manu,

I placed this option on the Issues wiki because really everyone wasn't 
given a full range of options, I thought you should ;-)

I have also supported using "fn" (as a second choice) because really 
this issue is the only thing holding up this round of issues.

I dont like "fn"  because:

1. Audio titles contain a song name and and artist.
2. Audio titles contain a song name and date (podcasts).
3. Audio titles contain just a song name.

using "fn" is stretching the semantics of fn a bit far I think audio 
titles are a bit more than just a name and they don't have any format or 
tokenized data as such.

that being said I can live with it.

Best Wishes

Martin McEvoy
