I'm not completely sure that I see the point in switching URL formats. I actually *like* our permalink URLs, and frequently use article/:year/:month to view a subset of the blog. I may be in the minority on this, though :-). I can see moving to restful URLs for API-ish code like the feeds (and then mirroring them with PUT, DELETE, to replace the admin interface), but it's not clear to me that more restful permalink URLs really achieves any particular goal. Can you give a couple examples? Scott _______________________________________________ Typo-list mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/typo-list
