My principle is that the TAG work is pretty darned definitive on whatever it's chosen to document, and anything not ( perhaps yet ) endorsed by the TAG is not part of the web architecture. Though I admittedly have a biased perspective as an elected TAG member. I would certainly strongly object to a w3c wg endorsing as part of web architecture material that had not been approved by the TAG, that constitutes the elected and appointed people responsible for web arch documentation, even though there appear to be some second class citizens in the TAG from a referenceability perspective in some people's minds. That you don't acknowledge the TAG work on REST is perplexing, given Roy and the TAG's approval of said material. Cheers, Dave
