'''Description'''
    +
The Open Food Facts API is used by a wide variety of applications (more than 200 of them) helping people making better choice around food.
 +
 +
It has grown organically with time, on a volunteer bases, and is sometime messy and complicated to understand. This is a barrier to re-use and does make every one loose time.
 +
 +
'''Expected outcomes'''
 +
 +
Propose a new API, limited to most important items, that is Open API compatible, well designed and easy to understand.
 +
 +
Project implementation could be in two ways:  either add a module to Product Opener to transform data to fit the new API (in perl), or either create a proxy in front of current API.
 +
 +
The project will be deployed as soon as possible and iteratively provides a more complete API.
 +
 +
Along the way, the current API documentation should be improved, and a full Open API compliant specification for the new API must be written.
