Finally rest for all that boilerplate in Java.  At each turn of lots of Java frameworks you are bombarded with layers.  I felt this long ago and see it in the developers eyes that work with Java.  Java can be easy, it can be RESTful and it will make you look sharp.

Lightweight REST framework for Java

Do you want to embrace the architecture of the Web and benefit from its simplicity and scalability? Leverage our innovative REST engine and start blending your Web Sites and Web Services into uniform Web Applications!

Java is making things more lightweight now with lots of emerging kits that compete with other web ready platforms like Python, Ruby, .NET, PHP etc. After this many years things get bloated and need to be simplified.  I think this will start winning people over in this direction.
