I just came across an article regarding submitting app to Ubuntu Software Center

http://developer.ubuntu.com/publish/apps/other-forms-of-submitting-apps/commercial-software-faqs/

I'm currently maintaining a open source stock market software. I would say around 80% are Windows users, although the software itself can be executed in Linux too.

I would like to increase adoption of Linux users. Hence, distributing the software in most popular Linux distro will definitely help.

I was wondering, whether a pure Java written software will be accepted in Ubuntu Software Center? It requires JRE6 and above.

Yep, there's no reason why not. Your package will just depend on JRE, so when installing your software, the USC will automatically install Java as well should it be missing.
