The change on 5.3.x is for BRMS 5.3. Note, JAX-RS based REST interface
is not "officially" available in Guvnor 5.2/BRMS 5.2, we dont even
have any document to document this part:
http://docs.jboss.org/drools/release/5.2.0.Final/drools-guvnor-docs/html/index.html.
As far as BRMS5.3 is concerned, this release is the first time the
JAX-RS REST interface is made available for public.

Its a different story though on master branch. Geoffrey, can I ping
on IRC to discuss? I gut feeling though is that we really need to
break the backwards compatibility in order to have a better and
cleaner model.

Thanks,
Jervis
