Hi Steve, How does one apply for the OS X maintainer spot? If the duties are within my skill set I’ll volunteer.
FWIW I think it would be useful on the wiki to merely suggest OS X users just install the jdk and the jar, instead of suggesting using java web start. Simple and works. A dmg would be nice. We could hook that up. I commented on an open ticket for the tray app. The dev was real nice and is looking into it. https://bugs.freenetproject.org/view.php?id=3093 Thanks, — Eric Chadbourne http://Nonprofit-CRM.org/ > On Mar 28, 2015, at 3:40 PM, Steve Dougherty <st...@asksteved.com> wrote: > > On 03/28/2015 11:52 AM, Eric Chadbourne wrote: >> Hi Ronald, >> >> It’s just two different ways to get java on your computer.
