Thanks for the response Bill. Let&#39;s line that up with what we have today.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

* Unique URIs to each &quot;page&quot;</blockquote><div><br>We are going to call these &quot;pretty&quot; or &quot;friendly&quot; URLs and it is slated for JSF 2.1. We intentionally want to avoid the word REST here.<br> </div>

* don&#39;t overload the meaning of HTTP methods.  i.e. don&#39;t change state of server with a GET</blockquote><div><br>JSF 2.0 will have bookmarkable URLs, which are used, for example, to retrieve a record by ID. In JSF 2.1 we intend to add page actions, which may change the state of the server with a GET, but those are discretionary cases to adapt to an action-oriented world (sometimes, it just has to be done).<br>

Or maybe people just want nice URI templating and JAX-RS injection annotations.  I don&#39;t know. Which isn&#39;t persay, &quot;REST&quot;, but still nice to have.</blockquote><div><br>This was my favorite idea of what was discussed in Tuscany. I&#39;m going to credit Christian with sparking this idea. Correct me if I&#39;m wrong.<br>

it is very likely that I am excessively backlogged or the message was<br>caught in the spam filters.  Please don&#39;t hesitate to resend a message if<br>you feel that it did not reach my attention.<br>
