Some of you are suggesting introducing a Session header. In your reasoning, how do you take into account the following points? - HTTP was designed with the idea that there is no application state (i.e., session state) stored on the server. This provides a number of architectural benefits. - Furthermore, not having session state stored on the server is a constraint for creating Restful systems. - Finally, given a design that stores session state on the server Restafarians can usually show you an equivalent design that does not. Thanks. Philippe Mougin
