I do not have overly much experience with REST service details, but
how do the services handle MIME types? That is, how do I specify what
mime type I'd like to see returned? Does the OpenTox API support the
Accepts: HTTP header [0]?

A second question... is anyone already working on a newBSD/MIT/LGPL
licensed Java libary for OpenTox API clients?

Finally, I would suggest JSON to be added to the list of (optional)
output formats, which makes it easy to use the OpenTox API from
JavaScript libraries...
