Jersey w/ Spring 3.0?

Question

I see some are using Jersey w/ Spring. With Spring 3.0 there are now annotations available to make RESTful APIs directly in a controller. Why should I consider using Jersey

Answer 1

Jersey pros:

• comes with specifications JSR 311
• reference implementation for JSR 311
• Restlet and RESTeasy are other implementations for JSR 311
• better tooling (at least on Netbeans)
• it is integrated with Spring and Guice

EDIT

A (very nice) Comparison of Spring MVC and JAX-RS
