Hi CF-Dev,

The CAPI team is working hard to get to MVP for V3 of the Cloud Foundry
API. You can follow along by visiting our documentation and tracker:

http://v3-apidocs.cloudfoundry.org/
https://www.pivotaltracker.com/n/projects/966314

We'd like to get some feedback from the community regarding
VCAP_APPLICATION, an environment variable provided to applications running
on Cloud Foundry. In V3, an application contains 1 or more processes that
can be scaled independently, so VCAP_APPLICATION doesn't quite fit.

Do you have any use cases around VCAP_APPLICATION that you could share? Are
there Cloud Foundry operators / users that would like to get rid of this
all together? Our current plan was to do something like below, but wanted
to hear from the community first.

"CF_APPLICATION_PROCESS": {
"space": {
"guid": "682e10a0-6f3a-4a9f-b52c-f508b2bd99c6",
"name": "ncalugar-a1"
},
"application": {
"guid": "<v3-app-guid>",
"name": "nickdora"
"version": "<app-version-guid>"
},
"process": {

"ports": [8080,8081]
},
"route_mappings": [

"uri": "nickdora.a1-app.cf-app.com",
"port": 8080
},
{
"guid": "<v3-route-mapping-guid>",
"uri": "nickdora.a1-app.cf-app.com/admin",
"port":"8081"
}
],
"limits": {

Thanks,
