title: "Automatic updates" for Java (desktop) application?
body: <p>What system do you recommend for implementing "automatic updates" for some java (desktop) application? I'd also want to have module/plugin installation and update. Think Eclipse and Firefox.</p>
  
  <p>I'm aware of Eclipse RCP's OSGi stuff, and also NetBeans RCP has something here. Do one have to buy wholly into their respective RCP stuff to use their module and automatic update systems?</p>
  
  <p>Are there other options?</p>
