Just opened my projects in BrickStore and almost ALL files are edited because
of BrickLink catalog changes?

Are the proposed merges already in progress???

No idea what/which parts are changed and.... why?

Admin, or Catalog people, how did this happen?

Looks like: 3062, 3068, 3069, 3070- maybe more that I don't have inventory
of.

To be clear admin did say that they were changing the names/numbers of four parts
on Feb. 1. So those would be 3062, 3068, 3069, and 3070. In each case the part
number lost the "b". I guess you could call it a "merge" if there
were "undetermined" variants of these parts.

Maybe to late to be informed, but since the items we're changed, your BS
had updated the database. Otherwise you would have had no message and all items
in the bsx would still have the 'old' number and description.

Just make sure that if there are any variants in those files where you want to
make sure you get what you want (eg blocked open instead of hollow stud) add
a remark to those lots.

If you click on the Extras menu and open the Developer console you can see a
list of all the changes made to your file:

That looks nice to have and use.
However here's my Extra's menu (no developer console?).

I on version 2022.10.2 (build 818); not the most recent. Should I update to get
that feature?

You are quite a bit outdated indeed, missing many new features, I would recommend
to download the latest always:

https://github.com/rgriebl/brickstore/releases

PD: In the past one update broke the autoupdate so that might be it, or you need
to use a legacy version if using an unsupported old device.

If you have to use the old check under View - View info logs and I think the
last one of the list is where these changes are shown.
