Meeting Notes 11/06/06

Brian thinks we should start the meeting
Justin wants to start talking about APIs.
Bridge-Server API:

What the server needs from the bridge:

• Client Capabilities
• Credentials

What the bridge needs from the server:
Most Basic Functions:

• Server Capabilities
• List of songs
• Get actual song

Other Functionality:

• Find out supported fields
• Requests updates to metadata
• Status changes(Up/Down)
• List/change access control lists
• Get database owner info?
• Sending a comment?

API V Alpha .001
Possibly use XML RPC for data transfer (need to look into XML RPC in C++)
Get_Capabilities()

Return a hashset of capabilites, or whatever else we can return using XML RPC

Need the ability to transfer large sets of data

Client determines how much it wants (is aware of its own memory restrictions)
Server has the option of not fulfilling that request

Need to be able to handle listing the whole library to several people's bridges at the same time
Can send database in chunks to address this

Brian is a n00b
