Open Stack

Hi,

On a different list we're talking about improving/new features on the 
client side of OpenStack APIs and this one came up (please see below).

Although API-ref is doing a great job, I believe the question is: Can we 
achieve an equivalent of aws-sdk? For instance could we have each 
project's API to publish its own schema?

I suppose this would fit under the API-WG umbrella. Would that be 
correct? Could someone in the group provide feedback please?

Trying to find current work around this, I can see the API capabilities 
discovery [1] & [2] is great but, it seems to me that part of the 
challenge for the WG is a lack of schema too. Wouldn't it make sense to 
have a standardized way for all services APIs (at least on the public 
side) to publish their schema (including version/microversions details) 
before going any further?

Thanks,
Gilles
