REST does the rest ..

Had a chance to talk to one of our ERP developers about my recent proposal (long term idea) of implementing Content System as a Service rather than focusing on Remote File System, i.e. CIFS or through indiviual application SDK/API. I think to build SoA ahead of time will cut down the cost of integration. For Web Services, REST achitecture pays off for long term.
