I would like to add that I was hoping for some input into how the APIs were
structured and what they consisted of. Without even an early view at them this
is impossible. I have held off making concrete suggestions precisely because
development is on-going, but I have no idea what it is. 

It would be silly of me (and probably the rest of us) to try and second-guess
based on the small amount of information currently available. So I would
encourage the OSAF team to follow the Open Source dictum of "Release early and
release often."
