This should really be a blueprint...

[Michael Gundlach (gundlach)]

All the other API feature requests are entered as bugs, but if you still
think this should be a blueprint, feel free to make one and link to it from
here. Though it may be that closing this bug doesn't take enough design to
warrant a blueprint (like, we parse out the .json/.xml suffix or content
type, and hand a dict of response data to a json spitter outer or xml
spitter outer.)

Yes, I noticed...

Blueprints are for feature requests, particularly requests that are
related to each other, so you can, for instance, see the relationship
between tasks and their dependencies. For example:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/drizzle/+spec/replication

By entering all of these as bugs, there's no way to tell the
relationship or dependencies between the tasks :(

I'll go ahead and gradually move these all over to blueprints, where
they can be properly managed in milestones.

The amount of time needed to close/complete something has little to do
with whether it is a bug or a blueprint.

Hi Jay!

We had a discussion on IRC yesterday about all this because some folks
were still unsure what blueprints are for (other project management
tools just give you 'issues' or 'bugs' where everything is merged). In
the future tasks like this will be entered as blueprints, but for
these it's probably not worth the time to move them. We won't have
dependencies, but I don't think we really need them for this set.

[Jay Pipes (jaypipes)]

Hmm, OK.

[Jay Pipes (jaypipes)]

ping. Michael, any update on this one? It's currently In Progress, but IIRC, this is already in trunk, no?

[Michael Gundlach (gundlach)]

Yep, it's in trunk. I updated the bug.
