Jonathan,

It is very common for data to appear in the IRI, e.g. id numbers. as in 
http://example.org/part/1234

I think this should be left in.

My impression is that at this point the only part of the HTTP binding 
that?s at risk of being removed are the parts called out in the draft, 
namely the serialization of instance data in parts of the HTTP request IRI 
? the use of curly braces with the IRI style.
 
I haven?t heard anyone who plans to implement the HTTP binding saying they 
won?t also implement this part.  Is there any evidence to suggest this 
part (6.7.1) should be cut?  Is it just too early to tell?

Paul/Sanjiva, 

I think there is a lot of value in the HTTP binding because it closes the 
gap between what WSDL 1.1 could describe and what developers are actually 
using for things like AJAX. I'm sure this won't satisfy REST purists, but 
even the ability to use GET instead of POST is a welcome improvement.

+1 FWIW, I was trying to emphasise the difference between WSDL HTTP 
which is great for describing messaging systems, but shouldn't get 
mired by being sold as some kind of REST description language.

Agreed.
