General principles for good URI design

	General principles for good URI design:

	Don't use query parameters to alter state
	Don't use mixed-case paths if you can help it; lowercase is best
	Don't use implementation-specific extensions in your URIs (.php, .py, .pl, etc.)
	Don't fall into RPC with your URIs
	Do limit your URI space as much as possible
	Do keep path segments short
	Do prefer either /resource or /resource/; create 301 redirects from the one you don't use
	Do use query parameters for sub-selection of a resource; i.e. pagination, search queries
