Hi,
    - I have used windows unofficial openjdk port from here

    - Tried porting icedtea's web plugin under cygwin from here 
http://icedtea.wildebeest.org/download/source/icedtea-web-1.5.tar.gz
but it failed with following Errors:
    -  initially it was failing to find X11.EmbeddedFrame class in OpenJDK  
["configure: error: sun.awt.X11.XEmbeddedFrame not found"]
    - upon skipping the class check, it started requiring some methods related 
to applets within OpenJDK to be public which in the used OpenJDK were private

How can icedtea's web plugin component be ported to windows? is it even 
possible?

I know there were discussions about Windows support in IcedTea Web browser plugin [1] on distro-pkg-dev list (CC'ing it), but I don't know whether there were any results.

Also WebStart module from IcedTea Web should work fine on all platforms running as following (from the command line, outside of the browser):

java -Xbootclasspath/a:netx.jar net.sourceforge.jnlp.runtime.Boot some.jnlp
