Sure. No argument there. :) Ideally, if a URL is used that doesn't include the version number it should use a sensible default (ie latest). This enables the "user choice" thing. > Adding versioning to resource urls makes discoverability harder, and requires > the client to understand resource url format. Conversely, having the version selector inside the content header (instead of being part of a URL) completely removes the choice thing pointed out above. Note - I'm not saying it's a killer, it's just you were asking for thoughts about it. To me, user choice is important. It might not be for the use cases you care about. ;) + Justin -- Aeolus Community Manager http://www.aeolusproject.org
