Hello, I've been using the restlet API and Noelios container for a few weeks now, with satisfactory results. This is fine work, and a useful abstraction. It seems wrong to me that Request.getBaseRef() does not return a trailing slash, and especially wrong that Request.getResourceRef() begins with a slash. This concept is in particular dis-harmony with WebDAV, which is the extension of the HTTP spec that extends it for read/write operations. In WebDAV, as well as in industry current-best-practices such as default Apache configurations, trailing shashes are formalized to mean "resource collection", such as directories. The same goes for Rails and ActiveResource/REST, where a relative path of person with id=1 should be relativePart="1" and baseURI="http://<server:port>/ persons/" or whatever, the case of a url "http://<server:port>/ persons/1".
