In the patch I submitted, I don't think there's a way to expose a service as both a wsdl-based endpoint and a restful endpoint. I've been using the wsdl-based endpoints for DOSGi communication (hence, my initial focus on JAX-WS and the JAXB databinding), and registering jax-rs resources separately. I suppose I could register the same service instance twice, each with different service properties. Do you think that is the best solution for exposing multiple endpoints per service?
