Agreed. RESTfullness is *all* about the implementation. You can take something like C::C::REST and use it to build a REST service. Or, you can do as I have and use it for something totally non-REST where it serves a good purpose and saves me time. I'm not sure that "pure REST" is ever achievable in the real world because it's so difficult to abstract the conversion b/t "data" and the desired "content-type". IMHO -- Matthew W.
