Keith,
Here is a link to an interesting presentation from Roy T. Fielding regarding the evolution of various architectural styles: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~fielding/talks/webarch_9805/index.htm
I think that there are 4 important points that have been highlighted in this discussion: - we need to acknowledge the fact that we are solving a new class of problem that is more about machine-to-machine communication.
- we need to make sure that the adopted architecture style is developer friendly because at the end of the day developers will be the ones who program web services (not user agents).
- we need to overcome the fact that APIs/RPC are difficult to compose in a reliable and adaptable fashion and they do not represent information very well.
- we need to learn as much as possible from the strength and weaknesses of previous architectural styles.
The solution is not obvious but I think that going back to the basic API based client server model would probably end up resulting in a failure. We need a model that can scale, represent information well and adapt reliably to continous change.

It is a common misconception by Web services proponents that HTTP is nothing more than a transport protocol which moves bits from A to B, where A is typically a web server, and B is typically a Web browser. It should come as no surprise that because of this view, it is felt that HTTP and the architectural style that describes it (REST) is insufficient for program to program communication. This could not be further from the truth.
Anything that can be done with other architectural styles, such as message passing, RPC, tuple spaces, etc.. can also be accomplished with REST. It just has to be done in a different way. The common use
of Web services, upon which you are bumping up against with this complaint, is not REST and is not the Web. It is attempting to use a different architectural style, RPC (or some derivative), that has repeatedly demonstrated its inability to be deployed on the Internet (ONC, CORBA, DCOM, RMI).
my guess is that lots of people will continue to treat HTTP as an RPC mechanism no matter what architecture you promote. for that reason alone it's silly to claim that RPC has not demonstrated the ability to be deployed - HTTP as it is often used is a wildly successful (in terms of amount of deployment) realization of RPC. the RPC paradigm
is more familiar to most programmers than REST, and it's probably easier to understand than REST, and it will be difficult to overcome that inertia.
