I can see how this would work, but it almost seems a little dirty. I would prefer to use the J2EE API to implement the SOA. Could I take the parts of my Strtus app that I want to share, and turn them into services that both my strtus app and any other client can call? I am open to the REST plugin, I would just like to make sure I am not creating more work in the furure if I have to integrate these Services with Workflow apps and other systems. I would like to do it the best way possible the first time, even if it means longer development.
