On the server side there will be just a light/tiny/thin layer around an _existing_ WebSocket server. Most-likely JSR 356 implementation. If Atmosphere comes with an impl of that (I think the want to do that), it could be used. Or what ever the underlying container uses. Similar to our REST "extensions" Also, outside of the JavaEE realm, we wanna make sure that things like Netty (read: protocol servers) can be hooked in as well. Don't worry, nobody is writing yet another WebSocket server here Cheers!
