Why is Governator needed?

Unlike other IoC containers, Guice does not handle: classpath scanning, lifecycle annotations, configuration/properties, validation, etc.

Aren’t there other libraries that do this?

Yes. There are several Guice extensions that do some of these things.

Can I use this in Spring, PicoContainer, etc.?

With a small amount of work, Governator can be used with most DI frameworks. Details here: Spring, PicoContainer, Etc..
