I suggest that you create a new /restlet-framework-java/master/incubator/org.restlet.ext.jetty9 extension by copying then adapting the o.r.e.jetty extension.
You can always have you own branch in GitHub and then merge it back when master becomes ready for RF 3.0 (Java 7), but from a licensing point of view you can't offer all the available open source licenses and would need to pick one (I suggest Apache license).
