I'm wearing my user-side hat. I've got a guy who works with me who has build many server+web_client things in his career: all on Windows. In that environment, he's accustomed to a strong IDE that allows him to rapidly create and debug the service in a code-first environment.
I've been so-far unable to find him anything remotely comparable for CXF. The Eclipse tooling we point to from the CXF site refuses to build services; it only build clients, at least for him. This seems like the state of things has been moving backwards, or at best, sideways. Are we missing something here? --benson
