How can you tell?

I'll tell you later ;-)

Not even close. [:)]

There's a metadata table which contains a notice of every update. Since November 2009 there are 1,628 entries spread over 84 different batches! For example, the entire Hermeneia series had a metadata update just
three days ago. Unfortunately there's no way of telling what the update is. When Logos requests a metadata update, the server sends all the metadata for that resource through, not just the correction. A metadata update looks like this:

<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
	<s:Body>
		<GetMetadataResponse xmlns="http://services.logos.com/resource/v2/">
