JavaFX application support has been added to the open source auto-webstart
tool.
Auto Web Start is a zero-configuration client for java applications. The
javaFX specific instructions are here:

It works with an OSGi server to assemble dependencies and deliver them to a
web browser.
You don't have to do any preparation, just package your classes in jar
files, install them in an OSGi server and supply the main javaFX
application class:
http://www.jbundle.org/webstart/docs/javafx.html?appletClass=org.jbundle.javafx.example.helloworld.HelloWorldJavaFXApp
The auto web start tool deploys using javaFX javascript, creates the web
start jnlp file, does a pack200/gzip on your jars and delivers them to the
client. If you use OBR, it will automatically download and install all your
dependencies.
Take a look and tell me what you think.
Thanks,
Don
