I'm almost certain it's not possible to build an unsigned Applet in
Groovy. The Groovy runtime system almost certainly beaks numerous
security rules which are enforced on applets.
This is a killer for my project. Our research group depends on deployability. The example I gave before of Processing.org's system:
http://www.backspaces.net/models/Stadium/applet/was done to show our client what could be done quickly with Java and a well designed 3D library. Without the web deployability, we would have had to send them the Processing system and wrap it into an application, hoping it would work on their systems. We've tried this before and it was such a burden, we gave up the system that required we do that (Repast, the ABM system).
If Groovy can't build applets, it will face huge problems attempting to define itself as a seamless Java/Agile system.
We gotta fix this.
