Do note, Java applets running in web browsers are an almost entirely deprecated technology as there's been a non-stop stream of security problems with the whole java applet concept and implementation. J2SE 1.4, a version that was new in 2002, was desupported in 2008. re; EPEL, as I understand, EPEL drops old versions like a rock the minute they are desupported. -- john r pierce, recycling bits in santa cruz
