Notes on Server-side Tools (2010-05-17):
http://odata.coapp.org/odata.svc/ - odata coapp service, supporting all the odata bells and whistles
http://browse.coapp.org/ - aesthetically pleasing, public-facing, genre-oriented atom feed of packages
Initially populated by the same genre list cygwin use for their setup.exe, i.e.
- Accessibility
- Archive
- Audio
- Base
- Converters
- Database
- Development
- Editors
http://browse.coapp.org/Audio/ will translate into something like:
http://odata.coapp.org/odata.svc/packages?genre=Audio
(Or whatever the odata way to access all Audio genre packages is.)
