Does anyone have any experience with this? SF really wants releases to go through their release system, their web servers aren't designed for high bandwidth loads. But at the same time webstart is so much more simpler than mucking around with install anywhere and all the other similiar installers.

Is it somehow possible to actually release a webstart version through their file release system?

If you take a sf download url like: http://aleron.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/foo/foo.tar.gz and chop of the first part for: http://dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/foo/foo.tar.gz their DNS seems to do round robin between some of their mirrors. I doubt it's documented so you should be careful of depending on their current setup.

Why not move your project to Java.net?

Hmmm, I'll have to look into that. Although I don't know if I want to be "unethical" with SF's servers.

We are looking into it and probably will. But I think for the time being we'll stick with SF and wait for a good lull in the project and then head over.
