Interesting epistemological point (which, like most epistemological points, is an irrelevancy not meant to sway the discussion one way or another): if it has zero URL mappings, is it a resource? A resource is something that responds to methods; if there are no URLs for it, it can't receive any methods, so you can't tell whether it would respond to them or not. :-) -- /=============================================================\ |John Stracke | My opinions are my own | S/MIME & HTML OK | |francis@ecal.com|============================================| |Chief Scientist | NT's lack of reliability is only surpassed | |eCal Corp. | by its lack of scalability. -- John Kirch | \=============================================================/
