So, what url would you use for requesting a form for a new piece? The asymmetry of news/1/edit and news/new seems weird to me, as the verb arg is changing position. Me, I'm still confused as to news/edit/1 vs news/1/edit. I'm reading the book, but it takes a long and winding rout to the meat of the matter! ;) > Exactly what I do.

I was thinking each object would be a subcontroller, in that if I am building a custom cms for someone, they might want news, blog, products, gallery, etc. So if the name of the abstract resource is at the top, that can just be a subcontroller that gets dropped into the project and the project can import everything in the subcontrollers directories.
