Take a look at Springs's Web Services support. I don't know if I totally agree on the sole focus being SOAP as opposed to including REST but I think that can be worked around.
I do like the idea of defaults being implemented. One of the critiques I hear with Spring is that you need to know so much before you can start using it.
Customizability comes with a price. We plan to provide defaults where possible, but force the service developer to make a choice where necessary. Our goal is too make Web Service development as simple as possible, but not any simpler.Posted by Josh at October 22, 2005 12:19 AM
