Re: Next versions of the specs: what are your expectations?

Hi all,

thank you for bringing this up on the mailing list!

Indeed, "has been working on implementations" is true for me as well, at 
least indirectly. Unni Kohonen just completed, under my supervision, a 
Master's thesis [1] (in Finnish) at Aalto University on implementations 
of the reconciliation API for Skosmos and Annif. The implementations are 
still on prototype stage and some details need to be finalized before 
these can be incorporated into the tools themselves: the Annif 
implementation is in an open PR [2], while the Skosmos implementation is 
a Flask wrapper [3], but the final version should be built into the 
Skosmos PHP application.

In any case, there were some awkward implementation details along the 
way that I've tried to communicate to the WG, and the current draft 
version is much better than the latest release. Therefore, I'd like to 
see a new release of the API soon-ish (along with support for it in 
OpenRefine), then we could finalize the API implementations together 
with Unni to match the new API version.
