And that's much of how API hackathons work. You have all these really fleshed out LEGO blocks. You just need people to come up with interesting ideas. So you give the people API access. And see what they come up with in 24 hours. And a lot of the stuff is just proof-of-concept. It's not like, let me polish this hack and unittest the hell out of it before I release. It's all make and break and testing the waters to see if other people are interested in it too.
