Dear Hydra members, In the article “A Web API ecosystem through feature-based reuse” (available at https://arxiv.org/pdf/1609.07108v1.pdf), we argue that Web APIs must stop reinventing the wheel. Like websites, they should instead build their interface from reusable and recognizable features. This leads to a bottom-up API structure, where a single client uses different APIs based on their features rather than being hardcoded for a specific API. I think Hydra can be a great technology to specify such reusable features. Feedback and comments welcome! Ruben PS For a quick look, check the figure on page 3: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1609.07108v1.pdf#page=3
