I have a Silverlight application. I’m trying to make calls to RESTful web service.

The internet seems to say I need to make WCF proxy, and put the Silverlight client access policy file in the root of that WCF proxy.

My question is —
Can I just put a client access policy file on the root of the RESTful (non-WCF) webservice, and forget about the WCF middle man?

    Absolutely. Rather than making your calls through a WCF proxy, you’ll just make your calls through the standard WebClient.
