This week we offer you a bunch of bug fixes and improvements before the team flies to India for the 2024 MetaBrainz summit. Especially noteworthy is another derat contribution, fulfilling a very popular improvement request to try and help editors reuse existing release groups instead of adding duplicates. Thanks derat.

While the team has been taking it slow in August, the volunteer derat has not! This is a small update with only four improvements, of which the biggest three are his work, including a way to reorder artists inside an artist credit.

A tiny release this time. The main change if you are hosting your own server is that we’ve upgraded to Node 18 since Node 16 is EOL. For everyone else, now you can see if someone has been blocked from editing or leaving edit notes before you report them (look for “Restrictions” in their profile); this can also help explain why some user is not answering your notes.

This is another summer release with no new features, but it contains a fair amount of small bug fixes and improvements, many related to URL handling. The last user account related pages are also converted to React with this update.

This release makes a few small changes, including an updated set of basic edit icons that hopefully will be the start of a consistent icon set for MusicBrainz. Additionally, and sadly, opening voting for new editors has caused the creation of way too many sock-puppet accounts, so we have been forced to restrict voting for beginner editors again. Hopefully the two week wait is not too long; we’ll look into ways to improve beginners’ experience without helping bad actors in the future.

We have a small release this time, slightly delayed because of maintenance work on our servers for the last couple days. The most noticeable changes are probably 68 new locales available for aliases (for example, we can now specify an alias is in Latin language), and a fix to a bug where a small amount of tracks would not be shown in their release’s relationship editor and as such couldn’t have relationships added from that page.
