Re: Invitation: Reconciliation CG January Meeting

Hi all,

Here is quick summary of what we discussed on Wednesday. We mostly
discussed the new features and changes we would like to add to the
reconciliation API.

- Adding support for type filtering in the entity suggest API
(https://github.com/reconciliation-api/specs/issues/29). I wrongly
claimed that this was already supported: it is type filtering in the
property suggest that is supported in OpenRefine.

- As a service provider it would be nice to have more feedback about the
API usage. Currently there is no way for a service to be informed of
which candidate the user picked. Such data could potentially be used in
machine learning scenarios. The API could provide an endpoint for a
client to send their chosen matches for a query. This could then be used
to tune weights server-side. Because such user input might not always be
reliable this would probably rely on the authentication support we want
to build in the API anyway.

- We would like to give users more control over candidate scoring. There
are many ways to do this, so we need to flesh out a few proposals to
agree on how to do this, I have started to flesh out a few ideas in the
corresponding github issue:
https://github.com/reconciliation-api/specs/issues/31

- We discussed the issue that reconciliation queries are submitted as
URL-encoded JSON payloads, which hinders integrations in OpenAPI-based
frameworks among others (and isn't very natural in REST APIs).

Juliane, Jeff, David, Thad and myself attended. Feel free to correct me
if I missed important things!

If anyone feels like proposing pull requests to fix these issues in the
specs, just go ahead!

Thanks,

Antonin
