Jesus,

Thanks for your input and for adding it directly to the wiki.   I'll 
address them in the next update to the wiki.

Regarding the api parameter lists and return values, I was planning to 
incorporate them as part of the specification; however, I agree that 
since this page allows for folks to sign up to work on an api, it would 
be good to incorporate them here.  I'll work on getting those in the 
next update also.

cheers,
Brad
