It might be worth investigating having our installer do the JAI installation directly for windows users. Since even if we get it working with just the jars I think the native version will always be faster. Do we know is uDig actually installing JAI? Or do they just have jars?

Hi Tyler,
Sorry for the late reply. Yes JAI and imageio area a bit of a pain. We have included them in 1.4 and we need to work out something for 1.5.
There is a little JAI howto on the geotools site that I reference often (http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOT/2.2+Dependencies)
We do need to move it over to the geoserver site and make it a little easier to understand.

We include a JRE equipped with JAI and ImageIO. Since you now run with Jetty perhaps you can do the same thing for the one click installer?

The problem is that we still have this jdk dependency for our jsps. One requirement for the new ui is to get rid of that. But until then we're stuck? Or Jody, I feel like you may have mentioned at some time that we could just include a jar to do the jsp compilation?

Indeed Jetty can include the Eclipse compiler and be done with it afaik.
I just don't know the details on how to make this happen.
