Last night I was trying to get first hand experience with RESTeasy, RESTlets and Jersey so I can weigh in. I was personally inclined to Jersey and was about to say + 1 for it. I also noticed it is dual licensed and we can use the CDDL and the jars are already in maven central. But when I look now at TIKKA-593, looks like who ever makes this call need to spend some time and evaluate other options including CXF. I also suggest Axis2 (because we have other services in it and also have a good number to cross-committers) and Spring MVC. In any case, I will go + 0 for any toolkit you all pick. Lets focus on the wine itself and just pick a bottle -- just need to make sure it does not break in shipping :).
