jetty is awesome.

In their latest drop (6.1.12.rc2 and rc3) there is a new feature in
maven-jetty-plugin to reload jetty on keyboard events in console
rather than automatically - it's indispensable when java GWT code
lives in the same source tree as the server side java code (just in
different package). And generally, maven jetty plugin is way better
than Cargo stuff that's used for Tomcat.

Also, Jetty Continuations are just some much easier to work with than
Tomcat's Comet. No wonder they are including it into Servlet spec 3.0.

Nothing particularly wrong with Tomcat but I think it's just lagging
in terms of developer productivity features behind Jetty.
