The current script that drives the publication of changes-notifications uses the database to find recent changes and gather the definition for each changed coordinate. Some DB definitions are out of sync with the production-definition blobs which are the source of truth. This has led to some of the changes-notifications definitions to also be out of sync.
Fix going forward
As the production-definition blobs are the source of truth, the script will be updated to use these blob store definitions as the source for definitions recorded in the changes-notifications blob store. It will continue to use the database as the means for identifying changed coordinates.
Backfilling
The script that will resync the DB definitions with the production-definition blobs can resync the changes-notifications blobs at the same time. See https://github.com/clearlydefined/service/issues/1142 for more information on this work.
