Greetings OpenStack community,

A pleasant but short meeting this week. During the open discussion we all 
agreed that the increased activity on the mailing list using the [api] tag -- 
with explicit invitations to engage in discussions -- was great to see 
happening and great to participate in. At least as great is the open discussion 
about how to do negation [7] which has led to a proposed guideline [8].

The pagination and capabilities guidelines (below) mentioned last week as being 
important and difficult continue to be actively discussed but have not yet 
reached consensus.

# New guidelines

No newly merged guidelines this week.

# API guidelines that have been recently merged

* Clarify why CRUD is not a great descriptor
  https://review.openstack.org/#/c/392156/
* Add guidelines for complex queries
  https://review.openstack.org/#/c/386614/
* Specify time intervals based filtering queries
  https://review.openstack.org/#/c/383862/

# API guidelines proposed for freeze

No guidelines are frozen at the moment.

# Guidelines currently under review [6]

Both of these are going to require quite a bit of input from a wide audience. 
Both have been tried a few times in the past.

* Define pagination guidelines
  https://review.openstack.org/#/c/390973/

* WIP Add API capabilities discovery guideline
  https://review.openstack.org/#/c/386555/

This one is new:

* Add the operator for "not in" to the filter guideline
  https://review.openstack.org/#/c/399131/

# API Impact reviews currently open

Reviews marked as APIImpact [1] are meant to help inform the working group 
about changes which would benefit from wider inspection by group members and 
liaisons. While the working group will attempt to address these reviews 
whenever possible, it is highly recommended that interested parties attend the 
API WG meetings [2] to promote communication surrounding their reviews.

To learn more about the API WG mission and the work we do, see OpenStack API 
Working Group [3].

Thanks for reading and see you next week!
