Bart, if your application is not commercial could you add some samples to the wiki? I would like to see a quick tutorial from creating to deploying a simple Felix project using Java Web Start(a simple JFrame, 1 or 2 plugins which don't do anything). It would be good to get started quickly with Java Web Start and Felix. For example, the way you configure the felix launcher in a Java Web Start application is attracting my curiosity.
If you can do it that would be great, if you can't thanks anyway. I'll dig into the API and wiki documentation.
