                + AndreWeinand:
                      # Need for best practices document / wiki page, 
and/or reference implementation: like HTTP content negotiation, what 
return codes to use, how to use cookies, If-Match header, how many 
redirects to handle, etc. HTTP spec is too big and vague, need general 
guidance. A forum for discussion.
                      # Most often heard thing, how to get an OAuth 
connection
                      # Some things missing: root services, project 
linking, .... some bootstrapping info, things outside of the scope to RTC.
                      # Experience of development team, make mandatory or 
leave out: more useful if mandatory and minimal
                      # Consistency, same spec for similar problems: 
resizing, how things are communicated back and forth
                      # Plain RDF is good, very flexible and extensible 
          o Identify specification needs/approach to support prioritized 
scenarios: CmScenarios
                + ITOpsToDev - terminology and misc updates 
    * New ACTIONS:
