Quoting [Sam Johnston] (Oct 29 2009):
Sure, client API consistency for multiple implementations is great, but I think that an API specification is out of scope for the group at the moment. IMHO, the group should start to tackle it once the core, and at least some extensions are fully specified.
You are, of course, absolutely right. In fact writing client code in general is outside of the scope but it's good for consistency (acting as a poor-man's test suite) and both helps our users and enhances the standard.
Absolutely: to have a test suite, or a comprehensive client lib, is great... Best, Andre.
If we're writing code at all it may as well be consistent, and support by other adaptors like libcloud, deltacloud & simplecloud would also be useful. Mike & I have just got the ball rolling on this one - Mike or someone else interested in Javascript can take it from here.
Nice stuff though :-)
Thanks. Sam
