thanks. I just might :) I can probably find it on Google, but would you happen to have the url for the jsr-315 spec? I still find it incredible that a 15 year mature unix-originating project in 2010 would still be demanding CPM/MSDOS filename extensions and not simply using the standard regex library, or that java servers should be constrained not allow a hierarchical address space to a universal resource simply because the active agent in the URI happened to be a script - the supplier of a resource in a REST environment should be invisible to the resource requester imho, however it is built under the surface of the request, I think it should just be /a/path/on/the/web and not a?subject=path&relation=on&article=the&object=web :)
but yeah, I should take that up with them.
