Upcoming

We are reviewing the required data fields in the catalog to see if any required fields are missing and trying to backfill missing data. This will help us establish trust in the availability of the data and help clean up duplicated code that is necessary now on all layers of the stack because data is not always present.

We also plan on deploying the API with the fix for email registration and the audio length query .
