Hi Ben, JSON-Simple looks fine as well, but lacks an automatic Object <-> JSON mapping mechanism. JSON-lib has such a mechanism, but looks less optimized and powerful than the one of Jackson. In addition, Jackson looks very fast and lightweight (no dependencies).
As I was getting annoyed yesterday but an XStream + Jettison issue yesterday at a customer site, I went ahead and added the Jackson extension to Restlet. It will be available in the next snapshots. If you put this extension in the classpath before the XStream extension, both solutions will be leverage to offer both XML and JSON automatic serialization of the same representation beans.

It generates very nice json (at least as nice as Jackson) but is still lightweight like org.json in terms of number of classes and complexity of code.
