Hi,

the library is not a runtime dependency. I implemented a "deamonized"
Clerezza Service using "Java Service Wrapper" (JSW). Check issue
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLEREZZA-502 for the project.

The launcher-wrapper is completely optional. If it is compiled it creates a
JAR that can be used together with JSW libraries and scripts to enable
Clerezza to be run as a service on multiple Platforms. Of course a user can
just download the JSW binaries himself from
http://www.tanukisoftware.organd copy it into the same folder together
with with the Clerezza launcher
and launcher-wrapper JARs to use this functionality.

To wrap up:
- Clerezza can be built and run without the library in question.
- The service wrapper needs the library and some additional files at
runtime.
- Currently the wrapper projects contains the libraries and the scripts in
the src/resources folder so this is most likely conflicting with the Apache
License. But the reason for this is merely convenience.
- If we can not supply the libraries in question is there some platform
independent solution to make the installation convenient for the user?

Best,
Daniel
