c) fix database

I originally filed them using the accurate (as opposed to common)
data, but I did so with the assumption that the DB would be
upgraded by now.

I vote for 'C'.

What fixes need to be done to it?

That's a question with a very long answer.

I should have put a smiley here. :-)

Allow a set to be in multiple categories

Yes. Ideally, plus keywords.

Oh, I forgot. We also have the icky problem of pictures of the packaging. This
has happened many, many times (as everyone knows) and it's been difficult to
decide what to do. Typically, I vote for going with original product release
graphics, but it gets difficult to decide when we have only a pic of the new
packaging. See: Belville change out of SYSTEM, LEGO Dacta move to LEGO
Educational Division, Bionicle change out of TECHNIC, Toolo change to Action
Wheelers, Primo to Baby to Primo to Baby, etc...

BTW, I've ended up with an absurd number of set graphics archived locally
because I'm not sure what's on the server; or how I could switch between two
images if they were both there.
