You should see a resource as an instance of some data object and not as some process providing access to the data. A resource is a document, not the process providing access to documents. Compare it with a normal web server: If you try to access a resource (web page) which is not there, it returns a 404. Although the process providing the resource exists (the webserver) the resource you are after does not (the web page), hence the 404. A 404 means the client was able to connect to the server, but the server was unable to find the information you are looking for. Its an error made by the client, not by the server. Ralph.
