I mean... at what point does it cease being "close enough" to RESTful?

As part of working through all this stuff I checked various definitions and then looked for examples of using REST services from PHP and Java. In doing so I came upon many examples that don't appear to comply with the more formal definitions of REST and yet are described as such. These included a significant number of Google APIs that appeared to be classified as REST.

So the problem I have with all these definitions is if XMLSERVICE is not REST - then what do we call it?

P.S. Happy Birthday Scott.
