Might want to fix your spelling for the docs link. Should be http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/CREST_Documentation to get to a working page.

Also the presentation link is missing a 0 at the end, should be http://bambuser.com/v/2494220
Any chance we can get the slides?

The example code is good to see (code speaks over anything), but a bit hard to follow due to all the callbacks. Any chance we can get some more docs with example URLs and ouputs? Or OAuth test user info for the example code on github to examine what's going on?

Great thing to move to javascript and json. Hopefully, the actual API will make the same move. I especially like the non-breaking changes versions.

I guess its a bit early to provide some real feedback. Its at least very promising and I'm looking forward to get my hands on it.
But one thing I'd suggest is to create some kind of public issue tracker (e.g. Jira) for this project before you take it live. Any API as ambitious as CREST will have bugs and there should be a way for developers to recognize open bugs, comment, being notified on updates or create and vote feature requests. All those things modern issue trackers offer.

Still waiting eagerly for a proper upload of the API sessions. Are they in the pipeline or were only the main sessions getting uploaded to Youtube?

Unfortunately the recordings from the venue look like they are corrupted, waiting for the venue people to tell me if they can be rescued. =/

Great! The only thing that actually concerns us and it's corrupted... Looks like you will have to DevBlog it instead.

Thanks for the update. I hope you are able to salvage something.

News soon - we're just about to nail dates for a developer beta, it will be after the Inferno patch though.
