Hi,
according to fact that java applet currently does not work on default 
security settings (to get it running I had to change these settings to 
medium) I would like to open a discussion (or rather continue the one 
from January this year) about future of this applet. It seems like the 
goal is to totally delete applet usage and exchange it with flash client 
or using HTML5 features (please correct me if I am totally wrong). It is 
related with web browsers blocking unsigned java applets by default. 
While I think we should continue with this approach there is one 
suggestion according current state of applet: maybe to get this applet 
running without lowering security settings (and to somehow exceed its 
life and usability) we could sign or let user specify certificate file 
to use to do this (I mean for example adding new option to configure 
process which will allow to set this file location and will then 
automatically sign applet with it). What is your opinion about it? Is it 
worth adding such feature (or maybe we should do it another way) or 
isn't it so important? Any feedback is welcome and appreciated :).

Regards,
Sebastian Kostuch
