Hi
which tomee do you use, we use (and we'll use) Tomcat implementation which is actually good since totally rewritten (first version was done by students based on servlets but today it has no more link with it to be adapted to the spec). Client part should be here too (defaults are hardcoded in tomcat websocket API so no need of META-INF/services/*) Well basically if you come with real examples we can maybe be more precise. You can also ask tomcat guys to fix what you see as issue(s).
