=head1 DESCRIPTION

Catalyst::Controller::REST implements a mechanism for building
RESTful services in Catalyst.  It does this by extending the
normal Catalyst dispatch mechanism to allow for different
subroutines to be called based on the HTTP Method requested,
while also transparently handling all the serialization/deserialization for
you.

This is probably best served by an example.  In the above
controller, we have declared a Local Catalyst action on
"sub thing", and have used the ActionClass('REST').

Below, we have declared "thing_GET" and "thing_PUT".  Any
GET requests to thing will be dispatched to "thing_GET",
while any PUT requests will be dispatched to "thing_PUT".
