There's several REST examples in the free and open source Talend Service Factory (thin wrapper over CXF) -- the advanced REST example I did a video over: http://www.jroller.com/gmazza/entry/video_tsf_jaxrs_advanced_example. Although I have the example deploy to an OSGi container, the READMEs for those examples show how to use Tomcat deployment instead.

The Tomcat-Maven-Plugin works fine, for both Tomcat 6 and 7, here's some config info for it:

As for a book, Bill Burke's RESTful Java book I learned a lot from:

I've wasted half a day trying to implement the article

"Creating a REST service with CXF and Spring in 10 minutes" (http://www.insaneprogramming.be/?p=140)

Why is this article recommended on http://cxf.apache.org/resources-and-articles.html?

There are so many unexplained things in this article, dependencies on pre-existing system configurations that are not explained. Dependencies on the tomcat-maven-plugin which seems to be in a state of flux.

Can anyone recommend anything better? Hell, I'll even buy a book if there's one available.
