I’d like to propose extra optional fields to be returned by the root/stub API endpoint.
Specifically to allow the Dashboard 1 (new version is under development) to be documented entirely from a feed under the publisher’s control, we could add:
Organization name
Organization URL
Developer name
Developer URL
Summary text
There may be extra data (like administrator email address) which should not be in an open feed and should stil be communicated manually.

Jumping in here for the first time to piggy back on this, I’d like to also propose that the version field returned from the same GET / endpoint should be a constant with a value of HSDS-UK-3.0 or something similar.
To me it becomes a much more useful field if it can be relied upon to describe the version in a constant format, particularly going forward if each new version of the standard used a constant field here as well.
As for Mike’s original proposal the extra fields would be useful for our current development and could be useful for others trying to consume this APIs as well.
