[ale] MySQL and 3NF

[jknapka at earthlink.net (Joseph A Knapka)]

A very simple approach that doesn't hideously break the
DB schema would be to model the different Museum departments
as separate contributors. But if you want to get complicated,
you can use an association table to model arbitrary
volunteer-contributor relationships.
