is WCF REST Starter Kit no longer the way to go ahead and creat Restful services?

maybe the question is so lame but this thing is confusing me a lot. there is a screencast series on http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/netframework/wcf-screencasts and WCF Starter kit in use there.

But the project was done on .net 3.5 and now I would love to create my restful wcf services on .net 4. when I install the wcf starter kit, the project templates are not on the project list on VS 2010. So, should I use wcf starter kit dll files on my .net projects or not?

The way I am doing now is to add the references manually which comes from wcf starter kit to my project.

Thanks.

The REST Starter kit ended in second preview version and it's not developed any more. You can still use it but it's beta version without any support.

WCF 4 included some parts from starter kit and made REST developement in WCF easier but it still don't have all features from the starter kit. There is also separate project taking other features from REST Starter Kit and including a lot more. It will probably be part of next major WCF release.
