We are leaving out a lot of important details relating to web services in {{$:/ou/parameters/Paper Code}}. We are teaching you the bare minimum that you need to get a functional web service up and running. We don't have time in {{$:/ou/parameters/Paper Code}} to cover it all.

If you have an interest in learning more about web services (and you should since it is a big part of systems development these days) then take INFO 303 in the first semester next year.
