Building Web Services the REST Way

There is much talk at the moment about REST, what is it and not is, Lo-REST, Hi-REST and whatnot. For those of you who don't really know what REST is and don't have time (or like me, not the brain) to delve into Fielding's full REST description, Roger L. Costollo wrote a short piece called Building Web Services the REST Way, which I think is pretty good. Some of you will recognize the REST style from XML on HTTP solutions you did 5-6 years ago, before the dawn of the SOAP and ROPE...

It seems to me that some people think Microsoft is not supporting HTTP/XML/REST the way it should. If you want to get updated on the matter, go to Don's blog and Jonnay's blog (Sacrificial Rabbit) and start to read.
