+1 a) Will both methods query and REST be supported via different endpoints while the deprecation is happening? b) Is the plan to reuse existing API entities, which surface to a query endpoint naturally over a REST endpoint, or do you plan to re-write the API entities? For eg: CreateEntity, DeleteEntity, ListEntity over @Http(method=GET)Entity.list(), @Http(method=POST/PUT)Entity.create(), @Http(method=DELETE)Entity.delete() c) An alert to downstream projects may be when you start this? - jclouds, libcloud etc -- Prasanna.,
