Importantly for the discussion, this also doesn't mean the push for REST api's was a failure. Sure, we didn't end up with what was precisely envisioned from that paper, but we still got a whole lot better than CORBA and SOAP.
The lowest common denominator in the REST world is a lot better than the lowest common denominator in SOAP world, but you have to convince the technically literate and ideological bunch first.
