JNLP delivers just binary. I think it is sufficient. (I'm a bit biased)
CVS delivers source, but a whole lot more. I think if we were to create src 
zips along with the jars and put them in the nightly jnlp directory that 
would be good.

As a matter of delivery structure for the batch envrionment it is:
     bin/
     lib/
     resource/

for jnlp it is
     jnlp/

If we build:
     bin/ with the shell scripts
     lib/ with signed jars (including resource.jar) and jnlp file

this would merge the two into one directory structure in the build, on the 
website and for those that want to download and run locally, from local 
disk.

I think that the website should also be restructured wrt the download and 
installation.
