I thought it was worth giving this a go. Preliminary date for RFC to end: 2014-09-01 00:00 UTC Jira ticket: http://tickets.musicbrainz.org/browse/STYLE-335 wiki page: http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/index.php?title=User:Tommycrock/proposal/Release_Group/Primary_Type/Box-set Preliminary discussions: http://musicbrainz.1054305.n4.nabble.com/box-sets-etc-td4667117.html http://forums.musicbrainz.org/viewtopic.php?id=4400
The proposal is to add "Box set" as a primary type of Release Group, e.g. instead of Album. The rationale is that box sets are often substantially different in scope and scale from albums. They are often also sought in a way other compilations are not. It is a type that (at least in English) is familiar and well populated. The text to be added to the Release Group/Type documentation is on the wiki page. Thanks :)
