Peter,

I think it would be much more productive to fix the deployment problem
(instead of throwing more documentation at it). If the extension came
bundled with Postgresql and was as easy to install as "CREATE EXTENSION
pljava" then we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Asking end-users to compile the project from source sounds like a
non-starter to me.
