This is the first checkin of a prototype webservice built using JPA rather than Hibernate and Jax-RS rather than Restlet.  It seems way cleaner, a lot less, and easier to work with the returned objects (since they are complete and have collections linking them to other tables).  I'm not sure if this is a viable replacement for our current web services given the effort that went into that. But it is a good test bed for something more modern.  More info will be added to the README.md.  These files were generated with NetBeans.
