Update: My slides are here. However, they’re not as effective without the demo.
What’s left to say? It seems everyone who participated in the SOA track, as a speaker or attendee, has already posted their thoughts. And others who could not attend have run with Stefan’s notes (go backwards from that link to see [...]
This is a long-delayed post.
Next week is QCon San Francisco. Stefan generously offered me a slot in the “Connecting SOA and the Web: How much REST do we need” track, alongside Steve Vinoski, Sanjiva Weerawarana, Dan Diephouse, and other luminaries. Woot.
For my part, I’ll be demonstrating the “ilities” of REST. Yes, rather [...]
So the battle still rages over on SOA Discuss. However, the list server seems to have crapped out. So, while I haven’t been an active participant by any means, I’m pulling this from my sent mail folder and posting it here.

Previously I defined and redefined some terms to be used when discussing networked systems. With feedback from Sam Ruby, Josh Haberman (in the comments), and Steve Jones, plus smoe more thought on my part, I would like to present a more refined version of the same. With this post I’d like to introduce [...]
Once again the participants in the SOA discussion group have got themselves all riled up about what exactly SOA is and why it may or may not be working. Here’s my two cents. We’ll start with another history lesson. (Skip it and get to the meaty bits.)
Once upon a time, the employees of [...]
Over on REST-Discuss, Roy Fielding dropped an innocuous message containing a link to the slides he’s delivering (has delivered) today at RailsConf Europe. I’m pleased to see that much of the material lines up nicely with my own REST Easy workshop.
Tim beat me to the post, but as of around midnight last night we have no known issues with Atompub support in WordPress 2.3. Woot!
My dear departed father use to give me this piece of advice (left over from his Navy days), “never volunteer.” But I did, and I’m happier for it. [...]
You may or may not know about Burton Group’s Catalyst Conference that’s held twice a year; once in North America and once in Europe. But at the North American conference we offer in-depth, 4-8 hour workshops on a variety of subjects. This year, I created and delivered a four hour workshop on REST, [...]
In my earlier post about appfs I noted that WordPress wasn’t up to snuff as far as supporting Atompub. Offline, Tim Bray, Elias Torres, and I had a brief discussion. It seems that many of the bugs that I’ve fixed, and many more besides, have already been fixed by Elias. The patch [...]
Minor update: A couple of errors in the installation instructions have been fixed and atom-tools has revved to 0.9.4, fixing all known issues. If you’re using appfs, you should upgrade your atom-tools gem.
