Indeed, there will be an API and a messaging protocol for interactions.

Thank you for understanding the capacity limitation of our
infrastructure and making the inquiry before releasing.

No pre-alpha ready just yet, we're still gathering functional
requirements but I have go ahead and resources to make this happen.  As
this mail thread has been the first public mention of this idea I have
been reserved in giving details or links to further information.  At a
developer gathering next week I'll be presenting a lightening talk on
this idea and the week after working with our Communications staff on a
public CfP as there are a number of ways the community can choose to
participate and potential questions and concerns we need to flush out
answers to.  After that I would like to have a more involved follow up
discussion with you. 

Sorry about the timing and vagueness but this is the best I can do right
now.  I'll keep in touch.
