Last month we saw the release of a Windows PC application called OrbisTitleMetadataDatabase by PlayStation 4 developer @RedEyeX32, and today he announced on Twitter he's added the PS4 Orbis Title Metadata Database source code to Github for developers. 
Like Santa flying off into the night bidding everyone farewell, Red-EyeX32 also let sceners know, to quote: "This is probably going to be my last release ever."

Also today PlayStation 4 developer @zecoxao shared some PS4 4.05 filesystem usermodules patch offsets (below) on Twitter, while IDC offered some corrections as well.

PS4 themes are interesting: they're driven by a basic scene definition (in XML) which points to models (MDX files) and textures (DDS files). The scene definition defines what objects are where and how they animate. And images for UI icons too.
When you have a theme active, they're mounted to /mnt/sandbox/pfsmnt like games are, so you can look at their files the same way as everything else.
Thanks to both @raedoob and @Wultra for the heads-up on this news in the PSXHAX Shoutbox earlier tonight!
