• A message regarding the API spec was sent to the Fedora community yesterday
• We want to clearly define what Fedora is in a specification
• The proposal includes API and SPI services and WebAC for authorization
• An effort is currently underway to detail each of the services
• We want to have a number of alternate implementations to verify that the API is independent of any particular implementation 
• We need to have TCKs that progress alongside the specification work
• Who will volunteer to take responsibility for the service pages on the wiki?
  • Resource Versioning: A. Soroka
  • Resource CRUD: Benjamin Armintor
  • Atomicity: Jared Whiklo
  • Authorization: Allen Flynn, Namita
  • Binary Fixity: ? Discovery:  Andy Wagner
  • Atomicity: Jared Whiklo
  • Messaging SPI: Unknown User (acoburn)??
• What will the final spec look like and where will it live?
  • It should be in the same form as the other W3C recommendation documents that are out there
  • It should not just live in GitHub or on a wiki
  • W3C Respec for authoring: https://www.w3.org/respec/
• This is difficult to do in the wiki. Probably still difficult in GitHub
  • Maybe a Google Doc?
    • Useful but will not help produce a spec doc
  • Are GitHub issues a barrier?
  • Could we use JIRA instead since we already have a running instance?
• Action: As a starting point we will use a Google Doc but transfer to something else if need be
