UPDATE: These fixes are now live.

We're about to roll out a variety of small fixes for bugs discovered since our launch last week.

This release includes two very minor changes to the API interface:

• a fix for a typo in the queue_availability category name
• changing the rel value name for title links from queue, ratings, etc. from "id" to "title"

Normally we would use the API's versioning to support the old interface while we rolled out the new interface.  Since no API-based applications have shipped yet (to our knowledge) we thought we could make this interface change without versioning without breaking any released applications.  Please let us know in the comments if you think we should version this change, otherwise we'll release the change tomorrow afternoon (PT) without versioning.

Here are the other fixes in this forthcoming release:

• Fix for title details that don't return results (i.e. Ghostbusters)
• Fix lost UTF-8 escaping within CDATA text
• Minor UI fixes for the JavaScript API
• Updated test account provisioning instructions (credit card no longer required)
