Hi,

At the moment, from what I've seen, it appears that the new XML Web 
Service is only implementing a small portion of REST. I've briefly 
spoken with a few folks over on IRC (I'm acid2) and a few of us are 
interested in having an application editing application. It would have a 
few advantages - dial up users, or those without a connection when they 
need to edit won't be stopped from making edits (if a local db is 
created somehow) as they can push changes next time they have 
connectivity. It would also take the burden off the webinterface, and 
the servers in general.

I wouldn't mind giving this project a go, but from my quick research 
into the XML Web Service, this doesn't seem possible yet.

Ideas?
