There is not, currently. Until 11.0 is branched, it should be considered to be in flux, but after that then we are going to provide backwards compatibility (i.e. you can add fields to the JSON, but you can’t remove them). Before this point, it would be good to have some consensus of on what properties should be common and what each should be providing, and regression tests for the JSON (the XML is isomorphic to the JSON, so probably doesn’t need testing separately). If you want to provide a first draft of some recommendations, they would be very welcome, DavidReceived on Fri Nov 20 2015 - 11:25:13 UTC
