I'm looking around for tools to implement cool uris in java. I've been 
studying the restlet framework tonight, and while it sounds cool, I 
think it would also require a complete re-write of an application that 
is currently based on the Servlet API. And, of course, I'm working under 
a time crunch.

Is there anything out there to assist me in working with cool uris 
besides just using regular expressions when parsing URLs?

For example, I'd like to create URLs like:

http://catalog.lib.ncsu.edu/record/123456

instead of:

http://catalog.lib.ncsu.edu/record?id=1234565
