Yes, I read that before making my previous posting.  Maybe you had
to be at the actual presentation.  I liked some of the analysis of
different architectural styles, but I didn't find a compelling argument 
for REST from reading those slides.  If there's more elaboration in
some paper or another, I'd be happy to read it.

Anyway, the point of my previous posting wasn't so much about REST 
pro or con, as the feasability of encouraging/imposing a new architectural 
style on the use of HTTP against the weight of so much existing practice.
