NAME

       icedtea-web  provides  a  Free  Software web browser plugin running applets written in the
       Java programming language and an implementation of Java Web Start, originally based on the
       NetX project.

       NetX  allows  Java applets and applications to be downloaded over the network, cached, and
       (by default) run in a secure sandbox environment. Subsequent runs of the  applet  download
       the  latest  version automatically. Update and security settings, among others, can be set
       using the itw-settings command.
       icedtea-web     also     includes     a     plugin     to     enable     Java      applets
       (http://www.java.com/en/download/testjava.jsp) within web browsers.

       Names and email addresses of contributors to this project can be found in the file AUTHORS
       in the IcedTea-Web root directory.
