Description
Like what jas been done for the db API :
- mention Field API on the "D7 API changes overview" page http://drupal.org/node/224333
- add a 'Field API' section in the handbook.

Until then, we have the topics at http://api.drupal.org/api/groups/7

The Twin-Cities user group is planning a documentation sprint for the end of June. I'm interested in tackling at least some of this issue during that sprint. http://groups.drupal.org/node/21946
One of my ideas was to work with someone who is more familiar with the new Fields API than I am (which is very little at this point) to come up with an outline of sorts that we could then expand to include real documentation, code examples, etc during our sprint. I think it would provide a good opportunity for a bunch of us to get more familiar with Fields API and also knock out a bunch of this documentation at the same time.
So Fields API experts, who should I talk to about coordinating efforts to create some kind of outline for this? Or, does anyone have any better ideas as to how we might approach this?

http://drupal.org/node/443536 has been created a while ago. It still need expansion, but it exists.
