title: RESTful API Documentation
body: <p>I'm going to design a RESTful API soon, thus I need to describe it in order to enable other people to start implementing clients using it. </p>
  
  <p>I've looked around a bit, but unfortunately, I've not found any standardized form of describing web-based RESTful services. What I'am looking for is something like JavaDoc, although it don't have to be generated out of any sort of code. I'm also not talking about something like WADL, I rather want to have some human-readable documentation I can hand out.</p>
  
  <p>Due to the nature of RESTful web-based services, it should be quite easy to standardize a documentation. It should just list available ressources, corresponding URIs, allowed methods, content-types and describe the availabe actions. Do you have any suggestions therefore?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance &amp; Greets</p>
