After the call for testers in November that was one of the feedback I received on the API, so it is there: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/api/version Note that this is the API version which may be different from the Pkgdb2 version. With the decoupling of API and UI, I keep two different version number and as long as the first number is the same, the API is backward compatible :) And I have been using it just yesterday for pkgdb-cli to use a new API method or fall back on the old one according to the version of the pkgdb API: https://github.com/fedora-infra/packagedb-cli/commit/af10afd22a5f4370285ee84423c2ac5b8d283ccd Pierre _______________________________________________ infrastructure mailing list infrastructure@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure
