Hi Jools, the JIRA component is:

   http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX/component/12310803

it's based on the Apache Commons Daemon project - unfortunately I don't
know of any docs which describe the Felix installers, apart from the code!

( of course starting this subproject from scratch might also be an option )

Cheers,
