Please keep in mind that such an API should not only help implementing language bindings for fossil but should also support tool makers. I'm working on a C# library to use fossil commands and a Windows GUI for fossil (with the goal of Visual Studio integration) and I really miss a library like the one that exists for SQLite. Implementing tools around fossil would be so much easier if a library would be available. An other thing: Seeing how much fossil developer related traffic currently is on the mailing list, maybe it is time to setup a new fossil-deve...@lists.fossil-scm.org ? I think it would make sense to split because users looking for answers regarding their day to day usage problems and not being directly interested in development of fossil should not be bothered with development topics. Maybe someone of the active developers asks Richard to set up a new list?
