Subject: REST or SOAP for java application integration?



Hey all, 
New to RT, and I'm trying to integrate it's well-respected ticketing system with an internal Java Application (just some change-management stuff) for ticket creation, maybe some other smaller things.  As I understand, there are some discussions around either a REST or a SOAP interface -- but I can not seem to find any solid information.

I've glossed over the 'online documentation'/wiki, as well as the following e-mail threads: 

http://gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/34655?search_string=rest;#34655 <http://gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/34655?search_string=rest;#34655>  
http://gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/43852?search_string=rest;#43852 <http://gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/43852?search_string=rest;#43852>  
http://gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/27317?search_string=soap;#27317 <http://gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/27317?search_string=soap;#27317>  
http://gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/23404?search_string=soap;#23404 <http://gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/23404?search_string=soap;#23404>  

Does anyone have a solid pointer to REST or SOAP documentation, preferably something that is 'formal' for version 3.x that is not likely to change for several versions?

Thanks,
