<p><font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif">Hi Kimchi/Ginger Devel-Team,</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif">Thank you for creating WOK branch to separate the kimchi plugin from the base frame work. It is a great idea.</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif">Along with the separation of kimchi plugin looks like there is a transformation of REST API URIs as well. So thinking in those lines will it be good idea even to introduce version to the REST API URIs ?</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif">Let me take one REST API URI to convey clear on what I am talking about.</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif">To retrieve the host repository information, current URI is: "/plugins/kimchi/host/repositories".</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif"><b>Recommendation</b></font><font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif">:</font><br>
<font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif">New host repository URI can look like : </font><font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif"><b>"</b></font><font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif"><b>/plugins/kimchi/v<version>/host/repositories" , </b></font><font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif">so that it is easy to maintain REST API future enhancements at the same time do not brake some body who is using the existing URI.</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif">Note* Adding version in the URI above is just an example and we could place the version in the URI best possible way.</font><br>
<p><font size="2" face="DejaVu Serif">Thanks and Regards,</font><br>
