FWIW, REST based Web services already support this. Of course, all objects expose the same interface, so a "inheritance" relationship like you describe is not a statement about interface, but about implementation instead. RDF Schema provides the means for expressing this sort of relationship. For example; <http://example.org/animal/cat/> rdfs:subClassOf <http://example.org/animal/> <http://example.org/animal/dog/> rdfs:subClassOf <http://example.org/animal/> <http://www.markbaker.ca/2001/02/Glory/> a <http://example.org/animals/dog/> MB -- Mark Baker, CTO, Idokorro Mobile (formerly Planetfred) Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA. distobj@acm.org http://www.markbaker.ca http://www.idokorro.com
