You can always install your SDK in a different location ?

E.g. C:\Programs or D:\Java

When I use Windows, I always install my programs under C:\Programs. There are 
too many problems with spaces in PATH on that platform.

> There are potential issues when dealing with including such already signed

> In particular see:

> http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPJNLP-20
> http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPJNLP-28
> According to the feedback I got on the maven user list, I think that, in 
> order to satisfy everybody, we need to:
> - handle already signed jars (MPJNLP-28)
>   - primarily we need the possibility to unsign a jar. That will probably go 
> to jar:unsign.
>   - optionally avoid signing jars that are already signed.
> - optionally clean the Manifest (maven1 jnlp feature, to work around SDK 1.3 
> issue - See MPJNLP-20)
> Did I miss something?
> Now how do we present that to the user?
> We could:
> - assume that every jar will be signed by default
> - let the user list the operation to perform, maybe using something like:
>   <sign>
>     <dname>...</dname>
>     ...
>     <unsign>
>       <dependency>...</dependency>
>     </unsign>
>     <skipSignedJars>true<skipSignedJars>
>     <cleanManifest>true</cleanManifest>
>   </sign>
> Does that look correct?
