Hi Stephan, I quite seem to like the Brevity that JAX-RS brings to the table. I do understand that the Client side API is not part of JAX-RS specs. With JAX-RS + WADL, one could use wadl2java to generate a client side api. Apart from the usual suspects like performance, user base, stability etc, one for the criteria for selecting a jaxrs implementation IMHO will ease of use. The re-use of code combined with using a single provider will seem like an interesting impetus for an adopter.
I appreciate your excellent effort in the JAX-RS implementation. If you decide to support a client side equivalent like Rest Easy, I would like to assist if possible. Thanks Sir.
