Hello all,

I have just ran a scrape of the vocabularies and datatypes on schema.org and noticed there have been some changes.
This is worrying as there have been no notification of these changes.  Most of the differences are minor, such as
changes to the wording of some of the descriptions, but others, such as removing a property from http://schema.org/MusicGroup,
are more fundamental.

To see the changes, take a look at this commit:
https://github.com/LawrenceWoodman/schema.org_schemas/commit/3396421b853707ec2564c3d9d742b1b06100346c

To follow the changes over time you can use the repo I am storing on github:
https://github.com/LawrenceWoodman/schema.org_schemas/

Lets hope that this is better managed in the future.

I think Lawrence has a point there. As we're scraping the Schema.org terms anyways on a daily basis and provide dumps in JSON, CSV, and RDF via http://schema.rdfs.org/ we will create a change notification feed in Atom; ETA: end of this week/early next week ...

Cheers,
Michael
