a super critical question: what's the X for in JAX-RS ?

Hi,
I was reading the JAX-RS spec and I had a quick question.

I couldn’t find the meaning of X in JAX-RS ==> *J*ava *A*PI for *R*ESTful
Web *S*ervices. Seriously, what does the X stand for?

My only guess is – it got carried over from JAX-WS ==>*J*ava *A*PI for *X*ML
*W*eb *S*ervices. Am I right?


Thanks,
Stephen
