In the rpm world exists a standard for deploy java application (http://www.jpackage.org) and in particular http://www.jpackage.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/src/jpackage-utils/doc/jpackage-1.5-policy.xhtml?revision=HEAD&root=jpackage. Perhaps could be also useful to give a look here, more fedora specific http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Java but useful IMHO anyway.
