REST framework selection

[SpiralUniverse]

Does anyone have a preferred REST framework to use with GXT?

So far the best support that I have found is the Restlet framework (http://www.restlet.org) with its Restlet-GWT module.

You definitely can't go wrong with the Restlet framework - after breaking up with GWT's RPC a year and a half ago I've been using Restlet + GWT/GXT(/MyGWT...) extensively, and with success.

There's a pretty slick open-source Restlet+GXT+OSGi based Web content management system called GoGoEgo (http://code.google.com/p/gogoego/) our little group of developers built (not directly me, so much), if you want to see some of how these things can work together well, and in cool ways. My experience comes with a less clever but pretty massive Restlet+GXT system that's not yet open sourced, that accepts and manages data from a global user group for this thing (http://www.iucnredlist.org).

So yeah, </plug>, I'd say you'd be fine choosing the Restlet framework /:)
