@dret @sallamar Fair enough! That’s wherDF comes in IMHO. Give things meaning. rel=search’s a good start. Same goes(#Atom) link rels.

via Echofon in reply to dret

@dret @algermissen If you can’t document ze media type, document ze API: use Link headers, use link relations, (my opinion) use OPTIONS body

via Echofon

@dret @algermissen Bart Simpson Chalkboard Generator™ defines kind of a GET-based “API”. Media type (img/gif) is fESTful? Not yet.
