We’ve been working on hammering out the details of the upcoming schema change release and we’ve settled on 11 tickets that we’re going to implement. For a detailed description of how our database will change, please refer to the our documentation for these tickets.
This release will happen on or about 15 May, 2012.
Is there a mechanism to subscribe to be notified when schema changes occur – other than the blog, of course
It would be nice to be able to request an automated e-mail notification on the date the new schema is published – especially for those of us that have replicated slaves that need to be updated.
Miky: Yes, there is. There is a mailing list called musicbrainz-datafeed — subscribe to this list and you’ll get all the updates you need.
