Yeah REST is misunderstood :-) It's main focus is discoverability -- explorable services. A consumer should be able to learn the methods/endpoints without any out-of-band data (eg. like an API doc). It doesn't actually dictate a specific URL or payload structure; its just a presentation style. -- C Anthony
