Description

Up to now Forrest has to run in a command window on Windows
using 'forrest run'. For Server Operation this is not acceptable, so,
Forrest hasa to run as a Windows (Win32, WinNT) Service.

Jetty may run as such a Service using a wrapper, e.g.
"... the java wrapper provided by http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org
  to provide jetty as an Win32 service."
(from jetty-4.2.25\extra\win32\readme.txt)
