Hi,
As you said, yahoo and google API support REST via GET and POST. In
addtion popular Amazon Simple Queue Web Services (www.amazon.com) (more
infor on - http://www.amazon.com/gp/aws/sdk/
<http://www.amazon.com/gp/aws/sdk/> ) support REST through GET.
http://www.xfront.com/REST-Web-Services.html sujest that REST through
POST is via xml and has a ecoded URL mechanisum. The prior mentioned
API's specially yahoo supports, REST through POST via a plan string in
the body of the POST. So Axis 2 supporting REST via encoded URL is good
option, because, REST through GET has a common understanding.

Hi All;
Axis2 now has implemeted the REST as follows
1) If using GET the request is send via a encoded values to the URL
2) If using POST the request is always sent as xml message
But both yahoo and google API seems to expect both the GET as well as
the POST requests encoded to the URL. We are palnning to rewrite the
REST support to work with encoded URLs *ONLY*.
thoughts?
Thanks
