Yet abother RESTful API that's not RESTful at all

I just run across another claimed RESTful API published by xiaonei.com. However, IMHO, it is not RESTful at all. That must make Fielding frustrated again. It is actually POX over HTTP. Obviously REST has been used as brand to mean buzz word compatible thing, that's what Fielding don't wanna see. Please see my previous post about what does REST really means and how.
