Aldrin Piri commented on MINIFI-404:
------------------------------------

[~jzemerick] Yeah, I think that is fair game.  I haven't had the time to explore more in-depth but my initial thought for a quick win was to take the ant build for something like Tomcat and make use of the maven-antrun-plugin to wrap it into our current build.

> MINIFI-344 provided windows support making use of the Apache Daemon procrun.  This was accomplished by making use of those binaries and wrapping the application which is an issue for a proper source release.  We need to determine a way to generate these at build time (other Apache projects generate such artifacts and we should evaluate how those are accomplished).  Should no tenable solution be found before our next release, this will have to be removed until a time when we are able to.  In such a scenario,  we could capture this information in docs for those that are interested in doing so out of the community processes.
