why has this been made so complicated????

Come down to Earth, JOGL 1 was a lot more complicated to build. Personally, I just get JOGL, JOAL and GlueGen from Github with EGit in Eclipse 4 and the Ant build runs automatically. Just follow the HowToBuild and don't try to customize it by any mean. If we could do something more simple, we would. Dropping Ant won't drive anything easier.

Edit.: Applets are a pure waste of time in my humble opinion. Oracle modifies the security policy so often that I refuse using them in production, it has become too much dangerous.
