At JavaOne, it was mentioned that Netscape 5.0 will ship with the latest
version of the Java Plugin released at that time. My guess is that they
will want to ship with version 1.3 (probably late fall) since that version
of the Java plugin is supposed to support the extension download mechanisms
present in JDK 1.3 ie. you can deploy a jar file that specifies in its
manifest that it needs Java3D 1.x and if it is not present, the plugin will
prompt the user to download the extension from the Sun Web site and install
it. The same version of the plugin is also supposed to support local
caching of jar files downloaded over the internet so that you only download
a jar file for an applet on a Web site the first time and download it again
only if the jar file has been modified.
