Dear GBIF API users,
A new API will be deployed later today. Please expect a short downtime in the central European afternoon, we try to keep it minimal.
This is a minor updated and all URLs in the new version will remain the same, keeping v0.9. New features included are improved data processing, multimedia support for occurrences and new occurrence search filters based on media type and processing issues. Please also see http://gbif.blogspot.de/2014/05/multimedia-in-gbif.html
If you notice problems or need help with the API feel invited to post questions in this list.
with thanks, GBIF dev team

Dear GBIF API users,
we are applying a major update to our backend infrastructure this weekend. Please expect an API and portal downtime of several hours starting sunday 23th November around 10am CET. The API will remain the same with only some bug fixes applied. It will allow us to do quicker and more frequent deploys in the future and ultimately provide a better search experience.
Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your patience.
