    Does ReST mean anything anymore? It was originally a set of principles guiding the development of the HTTP 1.1 spec. Then it meant mapping CRUD to HTTP verbs so application-agnostic load balancers could work right. And now I guess it’s just HTTP+JSON?

        I understand it for normal words. But for an acronym? About a body of technical research? How are we supposed to refer to the thing that Fielding meant when he coined the term?
