I have tried installing latest 1.11 version on alpha4, without included 
jre. There was a message about not finding java 6 but I ignored it.
Installation process worked fine and the software seems to work fine 
under openjdk7 (without JAI though).

Is there a way to deploy the bin file automatically? I recall Geonetwork 
getting installed from a bin file with a configuration xml file. Could 
this be the case for gvSIG too?
