[cosmo-dev] PIM and user credentials

[Travis Vachon]

Hi Tom

Are you talking about

GET /chandler/pim

?

This resource is protected by session authentication, in which the  
client POSTs credentials to /chandler/security_check like


POST /chandler/security_check

j_username=travis&j_password=testing


at which point the server creates a token and includes it in the  
response in a Cookie. The browser includes this Cookie in subsequent  
requests, which the server detects and uses to determine whether or  
not the request has appropriate credentials. You can simulate this  
behavior with any client side library, and many actually include  
builtin support for this scheme (sometimes called "form based auth").
