Now that we have a SDE let's discuss the API. What do you want implemented in an API and what would you do with it when you get it?
The #1 request on Subdreddit's list and probably many more corps is a way to tell what corp a character is in. This simple API allows corporate IT to determine if a character to have access to the corporations infrastructure.
The next thing on my personal list is a way to tell what skills a character has trained. I wrote a simple skill planner and it is awkward to use without knowing the skills a player has already trained.
To put these two in Eve API terms that would be /eve/CharacterInfo.xml.aspx and /char/CharacterSheet.xml.aspx respectively. |

If you have director keys, the eve corp memberlist call will give you dust merc names and IDs but you cannot further lookup the merc, without going a little grey area and page scraping other things.

Yeah, I use corp API keys to authorize access to our site. But it's kinda a goofy methodology.
The biggest thing I want, is leaderboard stats. Since you can look up someone's KDR, WLR, kills, and war points by simply adding them to contacts, this info is public. It'd be nice if we were able to actually look it up from the API.

I like to think there is a design doc over there somewhere waiting for development time.

The guy who was with Atli in Vegas (I'm sorry I forgot your name  ) mentioned a 3rd party SDK. I hope they are past a design doc by now. |

I don't have it on me now but remind me tomorrow and I'll post the link to the CREST root endpoint.
CREST is already live, just not open to 3rd parties. CCP are waiting for their legal department to finalise developer licensing and then we're good to go!

Probably a mixture of EVE API and web scraping EVE Gate. Nothing to really be proud of... :)

I can confirm Chribba does what he can. but Crest, not the eve api system is what will be the future of development of Dust. the API is really really nasty, and Crest works, so yeah.
