The main production metadata aggregate was NOT synced with the preview
aggregate today as originally planned. Although we have received no
reports of incompatibilities with the MD-RPI schema currently deployed
in the preview aggregate, we discovered yesterday that the fallback
aggregate is not working as expected. Since the fallback aggregate is
an important stage in the pipeline, we've decided to delay the
migration plan until the fallback aggregate is fixed. We will let you
know when this is done.

Thanks for your patience,

Tom
