Microsoft Knowledge Base metadata

This repository hosts a small subset of the Microsoft Knowledgebase metadata. The data in the data.json contains the following:

1. Date of the KB publication
2. KB UUID
3. KB Slug
4. KB URL

The list of KB IDs in the database is scraped from the URLs in discovery.txt. The primary usecase of the dataset is to provide a KB:DATE mapping to other projects.
