> To better align our Demos to IIA concepts, I'm thinking to re-enable JNLP links for our Demos, so they can run even with Java Web Start as Applications.
> And maybe changing the text View with something like "Run as Applet", and add bottom another link like "Run as Application" ...
> Note that this could help even to improve the experience to all users that has/had troubles running our Applets (some thread on Pivot-2.0 and the IcedTea plugin on Linux, and some problems on some Dell machines with Windows, etc).
> Note that those links was removed by PIVOT-500 issue ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-500 ), but with latest Java 6 Update 21 and upper (currently 6 Update 24)  there isn't that problem, so now it's safe to re-enable them.
