Hi Thomas, I tried JSVC to run the software i am packaging (I2P router : #448638) and I managed to make it run. But the fact is the upstreams authors used the service-wrapper-java on their router source (as library import) and it is strictly needed on the web configuring tool.
Honestly, for what I tried the wrapper service, it looks as useful as jsvc (and maybe more tunnable).
