Make sense, then how about the operation name for the hierarchical service? is it like /services/foo/Echo/echo ?.
Only worry I have is this is confusing, by looking at the URI it is hard to tell whether it is a service or operation ("/" is a special character when for URL and it has its own meaning). That is why I suggested to follow something like "/services/version-isusru/echo" "/services/version-azeez/echo". Which does not break anything and you do not need to do anything to get that working. > > That is how I've done it.
