They seem to be mostly written from C#, all the information they are giving me is an auto-generated schema page with set/get examples in SOAP [for one service] and XML [for the other]. I suspect that a few of the others will be in JSON though. > TastyPie would only be useful for you if you have existing Django Models. > You could still use it without having Django models, but then you would > have to write lot more of the api code yourself.

What would be the best way of doing this? Would TastyPie still be a good choice, or would Django-Piston [or some other] better suit this problem?
