"RESTClient is great!"

From Avi Flax of USA with the subject "RESTClient is great!":

...I just stumbled across your request for suggestions at
rest-discuss, and having never heard about RESTClient before, I was
thrilled to download it and try it out. It's excellent! I'm very
excited to use it - we build and use many different RESTful web apps
here, and we all use cURL every day. I'm going to tell the whole team
about it, and I'm sure they'll be excited as well. RESTClient is going
to be very very useful for us, thank you! I'm looking forward to
using it, and perhaps helping out with it here and there. I've
followed your suggestion and submitted some feature requests -
thirteen, actually. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the tool
evolves.
