Hi there,
I would like to donate my business scenario as test bed for HATEOAS
implemented with JAX-RS.
What I need: a wiki page somewhere where I can describe my business case.
Then I start and other people can review and rewrite the parts they believe
wrong. We can have in short period of time a benchmark case. I will write
down only the business scenario and the suggested resources representation.
After that, everyone can implement that case in the way they believe better,
in which technology they believe better :)
Why to use my case instead of others?
1) Because the implementation of such project helps education in Brazil (
http://kenai.com/projects/puj/pages/Home)
2) Because it is generic enough to be adopted by other JUGs
3) Because it is open-source and there are already some implementation
available
* Of course, we can also think about a "catalog" where several people
contribute with business scenarios, and eventually the more complete one
will emerge from this brain storm.
If you like the idea, please point me the wiki I can start to write down the
spec of PUJ.
* I will try this anyway, bu if I have the community attention I will get
some extra push :)
thanks,
Felipe Gaścho
