This may include statements about existing frameworks and libraries, general discussions about the nature of the style and how it may be expressed and/or encouraged via a programming framework, etc.

This can take many forms including: * Pages that describe existing frameworks listing their features, strengths and drawbacks. * Links to resources on the subject of frameworks and REST-ful programming

This is meant to be a wide open space. If you would like to contribute here, contact one of the listed project owners.
