GIven that most of us sling code and thus are quite familiar with the need for specificity, both at syntactic and semantic levels, it is rather dismaying to see how prevalent "loose language", overloaded/opaque personal definitions and vague conceptual idioms are when discussing topics like Objects at REST. It's no wonder that the software world is in such a mess, and that the business folks, for the most part, ignore us. This has been a good thread, with some interesting insights from many quarters. Time to give it a REST, at least from my end. ;-) Andrzej Jan Taramina Chaeron Corporation: Enterprise System Solutions http://www.chaeron.com
