I have been tasked with coming up with a RESTful Create, Read, Update [we're not Deleting] API to our home-grown controlled vocabulary database, "WordShack".
I can't help you with your actual question---except to wish you good luck---but have you read RESTful WEB SERVICES by Leonard Richardson and Sam Ruby (O'Reilly, 2007) (http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596529260)?
It's excellent. You probably already know about it, but if not, it'll be a big help. Not only does it explain about REST, by doing so it explains how the web works. It changed how I think.
