Implementing a new Zend_Service

[Jan Miczaika-2]

Hello,

we run www.hitmeister.de, a marketplace for media products. For our
sellers we have a number of integration options, including a Web XML API.

I am currently evaluating programming a Zend_Service for our API. I am a
bit unsure about the next steps though. Is this the right process?

1. Sign up with a corporate CLA - done but waiting for clearance from Zend
2. Submit a proposal in the Wiki
3. Flesh out the proposal including interface and unit tests
4. Get the proposal approved - how is this done?
5. Commit code, including test compliance documentation
6. Wait for code to be included in the codebase - how is this done?

I am unsure about steps 4 and 6. Any tips, or pointers to relevant
documentation?

Thanks

Jan

Yes, that is pretty much the process. Once you have finalized your proposal we will review it and get back to you. Please take a look at the draft version of our new proposal: http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFPROP/New+Proposal+Process+Detail+Draft. This will become final *very* soon.

Thanks.

Hi Wil,

thanks for the pointer to the draft. As soon as my CLA is approved I'll
post an early version.

How is the "Zend Policy" regarding v0, v1 etc. of services? Our API is
divided into two main areas: 1) retrieval of item information and 2)
inventory management for sellers. Part 2 is much more complex since it
involves authentication. I am leaning towards implementing part 1 first
and then following up with part 2. Is that ok or do you prefer "full"
implementations?

Thanks

Jan
