> The DDP itself is kind of like REST over sockets on steroids.

Wait, could you help me grok that? The way I see DDP, it's more like "just" RPC + notifications. Where does the RESTfulness come from?

I worded it as an oversimplification, but it does offer the same service a REST endpoint would offer (CRUD docs), and more via subscriptions. REST in itself is just an RPC, what I'm trying to convey is that it offers the same, plus more over a socket.

There is no restfulness inherent in Meteor. You're description of DDP is more accurate.
