You should update the other issue to 7.x.1.

I was hoping we could discuss how to keep the services module simple.

Would you consider taking a look at the code I provided please? It will be much easier than analysing a patch:

My main arguments are:

1) Why bundle all the complicated CRUD code? Does it really help?

2) Why bundle all the complicated authentication code?

At least consider making these optional in a modular way, and not part of services' core.

Thanks,
Nick
