I have yet to read that paper (thanks for the link), but for now everything (not much) I found seems to treat some kind of "Asynchronous REST" as a extension...
If "Asynchronous Web" means Servlet 3.0 and async request processing then: IMO, nothing should change for the client. It should be using the HTTP APIs that...
Whoops. I thought this was a different (Java) list. Sorry for the Java spin on this. I guess I should comment more generically then. I don't think an ...
I wonder why nobody has picked up using email, smtp/pop3, as an asynchronous protocol for the Internet. It has scaled pretty well. Has a constrained...

Thanks, David. This sounds very interesting - what technologies/frameworks do you use for such scenarios? Thanks On Tue, Apr 21, 2009 at 5:57 PM, David Hodge...
Hi, Can anyone share their experiences with designing REST APIs using MVC style frameworks (such as Rails, Django,PHP MVC, etc.)? There seem to be two ways to...
... Hi Anand- I went back and forth on this very thing, and ultimately decide to mix everything together. The URI path only supplies the "model" (actually ...

Thanks, Peter. That was very useful. Is your API built with this model public? It would be useful to play with it to get a first hand experience. Thanks much ...
In other words, if you use resource.<format> in the URL it is a separate resource, if you use the same URI with different content types, it is the same...

I was trying to answer a question that was directed to me, not writing a treaty, and I did so in an expeditious manner, from the top of my head. I didn't know...
... I'm not sure it this is exactly what you mean, but in our app a handler (i.e., controller) services any request, whether for a web page, json data,...
Thanks for the link. Just wondering how far one could take that since human-machine interactions and machine-machine interactions differ significantly in...
... I don't think they differ as much as you seem to believe they do, especially if the machine-to-machine interface is designed following HATEOAS. Of course...
Thoughts: a) The fact that SOAP has an SMTP binding possibly taints the whole idea with the aftertaste of SOAP. REST people view "protocol independence" as ...
Random thing: http://www.rabbitmq.com/ - an Erlang-based implementation of AMQP message (queueing, etc) protocol states that it has an experimental POP3 ...
Anand, I have an open source framework called Hannibal. It generates code based on Java domain classes. ReSTful Web Services are central to the framework....

Lol. Ok, you got me there. I guess IT sucks at *every* company. But how is it not media type aware? mail messages have content-type headers. You could send...
