as you are going to plan an api...
This piece by Geert Jansen summarizes lessons learned from the
RHEV-M (ovirt) REST API project
https://fedorahosted.org/pipermail/rhevm-api/2011-August/002714.html
Thanks for the link! This is proving to be a very insightful read. I am

have been desigining the API (especially regarding the use of JSON over XML).
