Marc just made my day by sending me the link to the official submission of WADL to the W3C. Quick background: WADL (Web Application Description Language) is a simple interface definition language, specifically targeted at RESTful applications. It is significantly easier than WSDL 2.0 (or WSDL 1.x for that matter), and has some good tooling support through the Jersey implementation of JAX-RS.
