Providing attribute information can help increase sales by making it easier for customers to search for product information that improves their purchase decisions.
We periodically review listing requirements for the most popular product types to ensure listings contain relevant attribute information that will help customers make a buying decision.
All new listings for the affected product types will require valid attribute values or the product won’t be added to the catalog. This attribute information isn't required for active listings.
If you have an inactive listing and want to publish it, go to Manage Inventory, filter for affected product types, and update the attributes.

I think I have asked this before last time a product_type attributes change was announced -- still unable to find exactly where in Manage Inventory one can:
"go to Manage Inventory, filter for affected product types, and update the attributes."
The only filters I find in our Manage Inventory selection is:
ALL - Active - Inactive - Incomplete - Listing Removed - Search Suppressed
How do I find the elusive "Search by Product Type" ?

Seven new attributes for clothes hangers but only three for toilet seats? Did they do away with all the attributes for road_kill?

The link only includes an explanation of what product types are, but no list of changes is available, even in the additional links in the text.
