Well design of a JSON Web Service is hardly difficult. Webfinger infrastructure might be one of the places we look for information, so is the DNS, so is the emergent Trans notary infrastructure. First we should decide on what the information flows between the client and service need to be. Then we can decide what the realization should be. A Web Service is just an API after all, reuse of an API is sometimes good and sometimes very bad. Trying to reuse a 2D API for 3D graphics was a very bad plan for the company that tried it. _______________________________________________ Endymail mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/endymail
