Greetings OpenStack community,

Exciting meeting today, lots of people, lots of discussion[0]. We started out 
talking about the service-types-authority[4] and whether the api-wg should be 
more directly involved in it. Since there's a fair bit of overlap between 
participants in both groups, we decided that while it is very important for the 
api-wg to help ensure good use and form of the service catalog (and guidelines 
should be created stating as much) there was no particular need to do anything 
more than be present and aware. However this did lead to talk about wanting 
consistent unversioned endpoints in the service catalog. scottda was 
volunteered to follow up on getting some discussion about this happening at the 
PTG (with moral support from edleafe, mordred, and dtroyer).

We then talked about the ongoing issues with the visibility changes in glance. 
There's consensus that the changes (in glance and tempest) are necessary.

Finally we talked about some guidelines, notably ongoing interest in the 
capabilities review https://review.openstack.org/#/c/386555/ and what the 
api-wg's role should be in reviewing and discussing it. If you're curious about 
this it's probably easiest to have a look at the IRC log as there's no simple 
summary:

Lots of other guidelines in progress and awaiting your feedback if you have 
time to give it (see below).
