Summary : A library for access to RESTful web services
URL : http://www.gnome.org
License : LGPLv2
Description : This library was designed to make it easier to access web services
: that claim to be "RESTful". A RESTful service should have urls
: that represent remote objects, which methods can then be called
: on. The majority of services don't actually adhere to this strict
: definition. Instead, their RESTful end point usually has an API
: that is just simpler to use compared to other types of APIs they
: may support (XML-RPC, for instance). It is this kind of API that
: this library is attempting to support.
