This message is just a quick note to make you aware of changes to the CC
Web Services. Under the assumption that silence is assent, we're
declaring the API for the REST web services 1.0. As part of that
decision, some organizational changes are happening.

First, the current web service base,
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest, is being deprecated. It's not
going away, but application developers should move to the following new,
stable, URLs.

For the 1.0 web services, the new base URL is
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/1.0. In addition to the 1.0
version, a new "developer" version is also online at
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/dev. The developer service should
*not* be used in end user applications. The API of the developer
service is not guaranteed frozen, and any changes or experimental
upgrades will occur there.

As always, you can find simple documentation and pointers to code
samples (not yet updated) at http://api.creativecommons.org. Please let
me know if you have any questions.
