ripping the browser plugin out of JDK (1.5)

[Mikhail Teterin]

Hello!

I'd like to make a separate port of (www/javaplugin) out of the JDK's plugin 
bits and pieces (the deploy/ subdirectory, apparently).

The relationship will be similar to that between www/helixplugin and 
multimedia/helixplayer.

Has anyone tried this? What's to be aware of?

It seems like multiple versions of the plugin code exist -- for different 
versions of Netscape (ns4, ns6, ns7) -- which of these should be used with 
Firefox? Opera? Konqueror?

Thanks in advance for hints/ideas...
