Mainly just because we would prefer XML over the wire instead of serialized
java objects. It seems like the headaches of maintaining serial version
compatibility would be undesirable. Also, initially all of our clients (one
using Restlet framework and others using other technologies) will all be using
XML and we've written our own custom converters so that we have complete
control over the XML format.

I'd hate to start adding media type values in the annotations on my interface
as there is a possibility that a client might come along that would prefer JSON
or some other format. What version will include the per-application control?
Thanks,
Norm
