NeoVItaDB - Catalog update news

Hi everyone,

I wanna do this post as we reached a new milestone with NeoVitaDB project.

one of the most asked thing is where are old vitaDB entries or it showeds 1000+ entries and now it has 500+ , or psp catalog had 100+ now only 2.

Well I'm happy to announce that i've been able to recover most of them and publish into the prod catalog,

• From the historical VitaDB catalog: 523 Vita entries + 59 PSP entries
• From Internet Archive (psp-homebrew-library): 2068 PSP entries

Sources used:

• Historical VitaDB Repository: DrDecki/VitaDBtoo-db (github.com/DrDecki/VitaDBtoo-db)
• Internet Archive . "psp-homebrew-library"

Credits

• DrDecki — for creating and maintaining VitaDBtoo-db, the archive that made it possible to recover the original VitaDB catalog with all its metadata and packages after the backend shut down.
• The curator of the "PlayStation Portable Library: Homebrews" collection on Internet Archive, for the preservation work on the PSP homebrew scene.
• Rinnegatamante — creator of the original VitaDB project and of VitaDB-Downloader, from which NeoVitaDB Downloader is forked.
• All the individual homebrew developers whose work makes up these entries — credit for each individual project remains with its respective author, listed in the "author" field of each catalog entry.

Notes

The new entries were validated against the catalog schema, checked for duplicate title IDs and formatting issues, and the trusted_authors.json allowlist was seeded with their authors (initially all unmarked/untrusted, pending manual review on a case-by-case basis where appropriate).
