[Pywps-dev] [GSoC] Pause/Resume/Kill process response - Web-based administration

[Jan Rudolf]

OK, so I am going to implement JSON responses for the new URL API for
now, it's also easier for me. 

What information do you want to see in this response? 

My guess:
1) an identifier
2) time
3) the uuid
4) a message like status: "paused/killed/resumed"
