This is a fairly small release, mostly consisting of minor improvements, but it includes a couple of bug fixes for very annoying bugs. This includes a long-standing issue which prevented editing release events for releases that were part of large series such as Apple Digital Masters.
Additionally, we are adding a new option to the API that allows doing a lookup by resource (the URL itself) for up to 100 URLs at once. See the updated documentation and the expanded examples.
A new release of MusicBrainz Docker is also available that matches this update of MusicBrainz Server. See the release notes for update instructions.
