Andrzej Kapolka a641c3c23d Provide a means of exchanging messages between the JavaScript context of the
page hosting the applet and the launched application through a simple server
socket bound to the loopback address on any available port (where the port
is passed to the application as a system property).  Not tested yet, but it
shouldn't affect any deployments that don't specifically enable it.

What is it?
-----------

Getdown (yes, it's the funky stuff) aims to provide a system for downloading
and installing a collection of files on a user's machine and upgrading those
files as needed. Though just any collection of files would do, Getdown is
mainly intended for the distribution and maintenance of the collection of files
that make up an application.

See the Google Code project for documentation and other information:

http://code.google.com/p/getdown

Building
--------

Getdown is built with Maven in the standard ways. Invoke the following
commands, for fun and profit:

% mvn compile  # builds the classes
% mvn test     # builds and runs the unit tests
% mvn package  # builds and creates jar file
% mvn install  # builds, jars and installs in your local Maven repository
