Thanks for the post. I still don't completely follow your example of the client you could write for me. Can you recommend any articles that go into more detail on this with examples? The level of abstraction in Roy's article was difficult to follow.

It's not a simple thing, so don't worry. It took me a little while to understand and it wasn't without some head scratchers.

Best places to be are at discussion groups (api-craft, rest-discuss). Steve Klabnik has a good book on REST that explains it in more layman's term. Fielding's a PhD (REST was his thesis) so his writing is intended for an academic audience, it's indeed hard to follow without previous introduction.

I actually "understood" it on api-craft. The real-life examples it has are very helpful.
