[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-3974) Hide the REST API from bots by default

Hide the REST API from bots by default
--------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-3974
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3974
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: REST
    Affects Versions: 2.0.1
            Reporter: Aleda Freeman
            Assignee: Andrea Aime
            Priority: Minor

I noticed after upgrading to GeoServer 2.0.1 that my rest links were being heavily crawled. It doesn't affect performance as far as I can tell, but it artificially raises the request count. I added a robots.txt, but it would be nice to hide the REST API from bots by default.
