Congratulations Onno. Persistance does pay off sometimes :)

I have no need to use the software, but here are a couple of comments
on the instructions.

+ Install Java: /usr/local/ is only writable by root on every system
i've used, so id suggest that section all needs to be run as root.
+ Install CSI: mount is a privileged operation, so needs to be run as root

You are copying the files to the ext dir of the java installation -
have you tried using $JAVAPATH or $PATH (or possibly JAVA_HOME or
JAVA_EXT) to get the external libraries. It looks to me like those
libraries could be run from the users home directory.

Anyhow - Congrats again.
