10:39	pdurbin	I use "RESTful" to mean "kind of like REST"
10:48	locks	I see RESTful being used as "pretty URLs" basically
10:48	locks	like, ruby on rails is "restful"
10:52	ironChicken	locks: i don't think that's universally the case
11:01	locks	sure

14:06	mamund	using terms like "RESTful" or "REST-ish"
14:06	mamund	is a way to attract the notice of people interested in REST
14:07	mamund	without actually doing/offering/supporting/requiring all the things Fielding outlines when he defined REST
14:07	mamund	often, when ppl use the term "REST API" they really mean "HTTP API"
14:08	mamund	i also run into cases where ppl say "REST API" and mean "Not-a-SOAP API"
14:08	_ollie	like NoSQL is everything non-relational? ;)
14:09	mamund	_ollie: yep, that's a good way to put it (better than mine, i think!)
14:09	_ollie	NoSOAP APIs… neat… that at least has a positive touch to it :D
14:09	mamund	hahaha
14:09	mamund	right
14:10	mamund	anyway, it's all words. i don't sweat it too much.
14:12	mamund	ha! just got an email with the following line in it:
14:12	mamund	"Rapid prototype and test both REST and SOAP-based Web services"
14:13	mamund	_boom_
14:14	_ollie	:)

14:15	* mamund	wonders if _ollie is sending me subversive emails unders some pseudonym
14:16	saml	REST and SOAP are isomorphic
14:16		danizord joined #rest
14:17	ironChicken	_ollie: maybe we could call them Dirty APIs
14:18	_ollie	mamund: why I would I want to remind people of SOAP? ;)
14:20	mamund	hahahahah
14:23	_ollie	mamund: any plans for some REST related conferences that are not at the other end of the world coming from Europe? ;)
14:26	mamund	_ollie: i'll be in London for the API360 Summit in November.
14:27	mamund	that's an event we put on (the API Academy). open and free to the public, BTW
14:27	_ollie	I've seen the one in Washington only…
14:27	mamund	also plan to attend the APIDays Paris event in December
14:27	mamund	yeah - the web site goes up this week.
14:28	_ollie	Nov 18th doesn't sound too bad actually
14:28	mamund	we had a great time in DC.
14:29	_ollie	I briefly thought about flying over from the way back from SpringOne in Dallas but it turned out we had quite a few meetings on Friday…
