There's a pretty nasty change to JNLP in one of the most recent JRE 6.0 releases:

http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5356707&tstart=0

The ramifications of this are extremely nasty - especially for using general purpose application loaders and launchers such as Felix in an JNLP/WebStart environment.

All of the Felix applications we have suddenly as of JER 6.0_11 now launch with Certificate verification warnings, and it's not an easy one to fix around.

I'd like to encourage votes for the bug ID to get this fixed post-haste (you'll see my disgust at Sun silently breaking this in there already):
