As far as the UNIMARC format is concerned, BibLibre did change the "default" framework when the standard changed: it's the framework that's available as an sql file with a release. Other than that, if a librarian did a "DVD" framework, it's her job to alter it, as Owen said. So : the default framework, provided with Koha, is up to date; locally created frameworks might not be. A script from you to keep that all in sync would be swell, that's for sure.
