Hi all,

As per the discussion we had today, we've decided to do the following
changes in server error codes.

*Client errors in server APIs*

For client errors in server APIs, we have allocated the range starting from
600.

Eg: USR-600xx

*Server Errors in server APIs*

For server errors in server APIs, we have allocated the range starting from
650.

Eg: USR-650xx


Regards,

Vihanga.
