This is possibly a bit pedantic, but... REST is an approach that uses a fixed lexicon of actions (verbs), but is not tied to any particular exchange/wire protocol. HTTP came first, and the RESTful approach was reverse-engineered from the operational Web - hence the close match. It's entirely possible to create a RESTful system without using HTTP. --oh
