+1 - this is important for both incubated projects and vendor
implementations. I seem to recall one of the sessions talking about gating
commits to passing an upgrade test from the previous stable release and
these interfaces are an obvious candidate. Identifying the specific
interfaces will take some work, but the plugin points (e.g. scheduler, rpc,
etc) are a good starting point.

There seemed to be a strong agreement at the summit regarding the need
for contracts on those "private" apis. This is because those APIs are no
longer really private, they're shared amongst incubated projects.
Furthermore, it seems this may be required to support version
heterogeneity during upgrades with versioned RPC calls.
The incubated projects could use REST APIs, but we're talking of
introducing artificial scaling and reliability constraints to do that.
It seems far better to me, if we can have contracts on those internal
APIs and use them between the incubated projects. There is a strong
enough push to maintain these versions *anyway*.
Ah - thanks for explaining that. I'm all for locking down these internal
interfaces. I didn't realize people were willing to do so.
