makes sense to me, and sounds like a good idea provided we have the people ready to maintain the testing infra and patches for this (which i assume we do).
I think we have a good base to build on, should get started, keep everyone informed, and we can continue to work to recruit more interested folks. I think if we work especially hard to streamline the entire process so it is as automated as possible.

i don't have a strong opinion either way, but i will point out that the API-SIG has migrated to office hours instead of a weekly meeting. if you expect that the proposed SDK work will have a strong cadence then it might make more practical sense to create a new SIG, or really even a working group until the objective of the testing is reached.
the only reason i bring up working groups here is that there seems like a clearly stated goal for the initial part of this work. namely creating the testing and validation infrastructure described. it might make sense to form a working group until the initial work is complete and then move continued discussion under the API-SIG for organization.
Working group actually makes a lot more sense, thanks for the suggestion, I agree with you; anyone else?
I disagree :) I think back around Dublin we agreed that SDKs are in scope of API SIG, since they help people consume our API. And given that the API SIG is barely alive, it may be give it a chance to become active again.

that sounds reasonable for a start, but i don't have a strong opinion here.

if you need any help from API-SIG, please reach out. i would be willing to help with administrative/governance type stuff.
As an author of a young SDK, I'm certainly in, be it within or outside of the API SIG. Dmitry
