Nathan,

What do you mean by REST backend developed using HttpHandlers?

Do you simply mean to use HttpService, and when the load is done parse it like 
one does in Flash
8.0 Pro right now?

Do you have an example.  I'm also considering just returning XML documents 
irregardless of the
method; but what about situations where you need to publish a WSDL file to a 
UDDI server?

What about Yahoo Maps and Flickr -- seems usually a developer just goes to 
their pages and looks
at the api, but it seems the "ideal world" not the "real world" is to 
eventually have a directory
of services worldwide (i.e. xmethods.com and others out there)
