summary: >-
  RealSelf runs no public API lifecycle program. There is no status page, no versioning
  policy document, no deprecation or sunset policy, no SLA and no API changelog. Versioning
  exists only as a convention visible in the URLs.

  note: >-
    RealSelf publishes an editorial newsroom at https://www.realself.com/news (HTTP 200) and
    a corporate blog at https://atwork.realself.com. Neither is an API changelog, so no
    ChangeLog pointer is emitted.
