Actually traditional RPC is one of the paradigms considered in Fielding's thesis coining the term. I don't know why people seem to insist there are no other models than REST if you happen to have browser on one end. Sending Javascript down the asynchronous pipe designed for XML was at the very least a step back away from REST toward something more traditional (moving code, not data).
