RE: Reading list for September Face to Face meeting

No way dude.

A summary of REST is in the normative sections of the TAG doc, and there's a
ref to Roy's thesis.  Therefore REST is in the TAG doc.  I even had to go to
the mat (as you can see in the TAG minutes) to get the REST material in.

There's irony that I get beat up by you on architecture and REST, and yet I
was the biggest TAG advocate for getting REST summary into the TAG document.

Anyways, let's end this discussion.
