Andre, That would be great, but I can envision vendors implementing things in a different way initially and as one version 'wins' we can roll that into the baseline as the API is iterated over time. --Randy On 4/16/09 8:18 PM, "Andre Merzky" <andre@merzky.net> wrote:
Quoting [Randy Bias] (Apr 17 2009):
For example, I'm pretty sure we're still the only cloud with load balancers and billing data provided via the API.
So, I'm keen to make sure that we start with a clean common subset of functionality with the minimal set of nouns+verbs AND have a way to extend the functionality on a per-vendor basis such that the baseline API is not broken.
FWIW, extensions on per-functionality basis would be more useful than on per-vendor basis. But that may well be wishful thinking...
Andre.
