Hi Markus,
Thanks for the detail on this. I think that would be useful, but I don't know how many others would benefit. If I'm the only one, I don't want to create extra work just for my benefit. If just me, I can just watch the commits on that repo you linked to.

Hi Scott,
no there isn’t I’m afraid. We have been careful with changes to the public API which should have mostly been bug fixes, but sometimes minimal, backwards compatible changes creeped in too. The API has a major version number in the URL (v1) and we will change that version when including some proper changes, e.g. separating names and taxa in the API.
But I agree it would be good to also document the smaller changes, e.g. new entries to vocabularies used in searches. We could probably do that retrospectively by going through the commit history of the API project: https://github.com/gbif/gbif-api/commits/master
Do you think this is useful?

Hi all,
Is there a changelog somewhere with noteable changes in the API? I could follow the Issue tracker I suppose, but curious if there's something like this https://developers.digitalocean.com/documentation/changelog/ for this API meant for human consumption.
Thanks! Scott
