This has been tried before. To be acceptable we have to deal with with expiring certificates and such so that the nasty "high risk" dialog box doesn't get displayed. We don't want users to ever see this during an installation. Ever, ever, ever.

The jar is already being created for Windows. Just needs testing, I think. Gregg, as understand it, you need to determine whether QA/website can handle the overhead of handling jars for all three platforms. I need to know your answer before I jump on creating jars for mac and windows.

Curt, This is fixed for Windows only- but I see OS is all. Are there plans for jars for Mac and Linux?
Good question. The answer is, "No, unless Gregg reopens this." We have never had jars for Mac and Linux, and there are definitely QA implications of creating webpages to use them if we had them. All in all, it is pretty certain that they would not get used if we created. If they change their minds then it won't be a huge amount of work to cook these up on call once everyone buys into it.
