Quite a few months ago we announced that we were going to start the process of moving features that were not central to the Package Database's mission of managing package maintainer's acls from packagedb into other applications. We've now deployed the first release that starts implementing this. PackageDB 0.6.0 removes several sections of the PackageDB's UI: * tags and ratings are gone. Use https://apps.fedoraproject.org/tagger instead. * Applications is gone. Use https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages instead * builds is gone. In the future, we hope that this will be merged into https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages as well These changes are the first step in making the code base more manageable as we embark on more and more changes. Many thanks to fchiulli and pingou who were the major contributors to this release. pingou has been busily working on a PackageDB2 version that will have a better API (pingou wrote the pkgdb-cli command line tool for interacting with the packagedb) and a web ui that's more streamlined for the common cases that maintainers have. Over the next year we expect that there will be many more changes that may require updates to scripts that are making use of the APIs but where possible we should be publishing guidance for porting and we'll be available on IRC and email to help out. Thanks, -Toshio
