Assaf,

Just going through the archive and wondering whether a spec exists for a restful extension to BPEL.

    This is not to say that a nice pure REST interface doesn't have its
    merits. However, BPEL is naturally limited in its RESTfulness by its

I think this is a problem of BPEL itself that's made to fit around the WSDL SOAP-centric model, and the best way to solve it is by extending BPEL to allow invocation on resources. I'm interested in coming up with a short spec to extend BPEL just enough to make it REST friendly.

Anyone else interested in something like that?
