I have some ideas to improve it, and of course any advice and new ideas are welcome, but right now the development is stopped because first of all I must change the name, the apache tomcat trademark doesn't allow to use the name "tomcat" as the first word in the name of a derivative project and I already received two emails from a tomcat commiter asking me when I'm going to change it.

Very nice! I never got around to replying before vacation, but I think
this sort of playing with embedding servers is a great way to
encourage JRuby use. The easier it is to run, the more Rubyists will
be able to "just run it".

Do you have any plans for improving it further?
