Philippe- I understand what you mean. I read from your posting that this list especially is *not* targeted at such[1] web services and discussions on this list should avoid the term altogether. Is that correct? But then, I feel there should be term for what is actually being described... What about: - resource - Web application - RESTful (Web) application Or am I missing something (not being a native speaker)?
