... and I want a pony. For anything to get into Django, someone needs to build it. Nobody is going to build anything without a clear specification. And with some very notable exceptions, nobody is going to build it for you. If you want better support for web services and REST API then you're going to need to do more than say "I want it", especially when "it" isn't well defined. You're going to need to define a specification. You're going to need to write some code to prove your ideas work. In the case of a project like this that can live completely externally to the Django core, you're going to need to let your code prove itself in the wider community. Alternatively, you can contribute to an existing project and lobby for that project to get included in Django. django-rest-interface is one such project. It's not the only project in this space, though. django-piston [1] is another. At this point, I'd say that neither django-rest-interface or django-piston is a candidate for inclusion in Django itself. That isn't to say that they aren't great projects - just that they don't meet the criteria we have for inclusion in Django [2]. If you want this situation to change, then roll up your sleeves, and start contributing.
