From another thread.

I'll keep trying to find a way forward with the fat jar, before trying to convince the upstream project to switch to jar-in-jar, but the takeaway for now is that JOGL prefers a jar-in-jar as the solution for a single file executable jar.

Do you mean this with or without changes to the JogAmp libraries themselves?
