On The ApacheCon Barcamp we were discussing that some projects would really like to make it easier for users to install their projects. It seems that my comment on us having implemented an Ant based installer for Flex has astonished quite a lot of people. Perhaps we should share this feature with other Apache Projects ... there seems to be a demand for something like this.

One of the reasons I wanted to test the new Ant-based installer for this was it would greatly simplify doing this. You could potentially do what the Flash plugin installer does, and popup a message asking to agree to the terms. If the Debian package depended on ant and the JVM, then you'd be able to execute the install task on behalf of the user easily. Tom
