MindTouch Dream is a .Net library for REST-oriented programming. It ships with a REST micro-server for Windows and Linux (thanks to Mono) that can be embedded into applications or used as a standalone .Net REST web-server. Dream is open source, written in C#, and licensed under LGPL.
The mission of Dream is to make REST-oriented programming as simple as possible without introducing abstractions that obfuscate the versatility of HTTP.
Dream provides a concurrency and asynchronous execution library that enables efficient programming.
Dream includes a REST micro-server that can act as a standalone host or be embedded into applications to provide a true REST API.

Well, I am not the most experienced C# developer out there, but working quite a lot with ruby and RubyOnRails, the Dream framework is the perfect match for bridging these to worlds. Instead of complying with the sometimes overly complex way of creating tons of classes (ever tried to access the exchange 2007 webservice?), Dream provides a clean and easy way for creating and accessing REST based webservices. I really love it!

Hi, this is Vivien.
If you've popped into the Dream page recently, you'll see that Steve has nicely reorganized the whole thing so that configurations, tutorials, specs, and services are easier to locate. For the past month or so I've been working on two tutorials that act as a way to ...
This morning I read Objects at REST written by Rick Jelliffe. It's an article about how object-oriented concepts can be mapped to REST.
I don't agree. The similarities between REST and object-oriented software are far less than their differences. REST is set of design principles that decouple software ...
