I'd like to talk through it in a meeting, can someone come to next week's
doc team meeting? https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/DocTeamMeeting.
I've added it to the agenda.

It's pretty rare to assign a doc team person to an API spec, typically the
PTL works on it. We do have Diane Fleming on the doc team for API work and
she's super knowledgeable and helpful. I have her working with Keystone
team on their v3 right now, possibly we can have her help you as well if we
plan and scope the work. Or you can identify someone with the right
knowledge. Let's talk more at the meeting on Tuesday July 9, 2013, 1300 UTC.

Thanks,
Anne
