With REST and Hypermedia getting so many rules and even protocol agnostic formats it seems like SOAP 10 years ago. Time for something new?

@JoergM I think it is still a lot less complex. And it drives the web i.e. much broader application.

@ewolff @joergm Huge difference: There’s no vendor pushing any of this. If it’s good, and useful, it will succeed, and fade out otherwise.

@stilkov @ewolff Thats true no vendor or committee is a huge advantage. But still the inevitable bloat seems to happen again.

@JoergM @ewolff I understand, but disagree. Witness many W3C things that just fizzled out because nobody gave a fuck.

@stilkov @ewolff @JoergM yup, most of it i wouldn't call "rules", but "options" which might turn into "recommendation" ... or not.

@stilkov @ewolff @JoergM @prossbach Simplification the web development and production is a good movement!
