JWSDP was initially created as a developer add-on to provide support for JAX-RCP and later JAX-WS for various containers.
It has evolved (a while back now) into Metro which is now part of the GlassFish community.
The integration into a runtime like GlassFish brings administration, OSGi-fication, integration with grizzly, testing, management, monitoring, and more.
You could contrast this with the type of integration done in JDK 6 (a subset of Metro in fact) or how Metro is used in WebLogic or other Java EE containers.
