FWIW, I had a quick look at http://code.google.com/p/esmeproject/wiki/REST_API_Documantation and I agree with the comments by jmettraux and dehora there - it would be more correct to call that API an HTTP/XML API. Doesn't mean the API is not cool, of course - but things like "GET /api/logout == destroy current session" make it easy for REST advocates to complain ;-) -Bertrand
