+### Reorganisation of location_area_country table
+
+The table `location_area_country` has been optimized. You need to switch to the
+new format when you run updates. While updates are disabled, run the following
+SQL commands:
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE location_area_country_new AS
+  SELECT place_id, country_code, geometry FROM location_area_country;
+DROP TABLE location_area_country;
+ALTER TABLE location_area_country_new RENAME TO location_area_country;
+CREATE INDEX idx_location_area_country_geometry ON location_area_country USING GIST (geometry);
+CREATE INDEX idx_location_area_country_place_id ON location_area_country USING BTREE (place_id);
+```
+
+## 3.2.0 -> 3.3.0
+
+### New database connection string (DSN) format
+
+Previously database connection setting (`CONST_Database_DSN` in `settings/*.php`) had the format
+
+   * (simple) `pgsql://@/nominatim`
+   * (complex) `pgsql://johndoe:secret@machine1.domain.com:1234/db1`
+
+The new format is
+
+   * (simple) `pgsql:dbname=nominatim`
+   * (complex) `pgsql:dbname=db1;host=machine1.domain.com;port=1234;user=johndoe;password=secret`
