+          - GCN Classic Notices distribution via socket, VOEvent, and email
+          - GCN Classic Notices web site archive
+          - GCN Classic-to-Kafka connection and distribution of Notices via Kafka and email, however JSON-format Notices distrbution via GCN Kafka will be unaffected
+          - Forwarding of GCN Circulars submitted to gcncirc@capella2.gsfc.nasa.gov, however submission to circulars@gcn.nasa.gov and the [web form](/circulars) will be unaffected.
+        - **Schema v4.2.0** includes the following update:
+          - `id` property (from the Event core schema) added to [IceCube lvk_nu_track_search notices](https://gcn.nasa.gov/docs/schema/v4.2.0/gcn/notices/icecube/lvk_nu_track_search.schema.json).
