Hi Franz

Days ago I were talking with Oliver Hader about this, and he said that he 
would comment it on TYPO3 skype core member meeting (but i have no news 
about this).

I also need to develop REST ws, but my approach is very general, instead 
of develop a ws framework (that it is also a good idea) I think that 
TYPO3 should have a good web-router that were able to manage HTTP 
actions, for example with a bit development in realurl to support HTTP 
actions and an easier way to provide config files per extension directory 
you could do the work.

The model in FLOW3 follow this way: a good web router + config files (in 
this case YAML files). Also studying the symfony framework it uses the 
same approach.

By the way of implementing a web router (or just improving realurl) you 
could use the webservices libs that you want/need


Kind regards
