+1 I also think that fastfail is not in final state...

This is not 100% correct. Tomcat also put releases out which include the
src of the jsvc . So anyone can compile it. So i see no need for
diffrent binary releases... But im not against it.. 
About the include of the windows "binaries" should be tested. And see
what we should do with the wrapper tools..
