--------------------------------------
Hi all,
> I don't think it is needed to distribute proguarded jars. I suggested only
> proguarding and packing the applications used as examples on the site, and
> reviewing if they are deployed correctly.
That was my plan.
But to avoid licensing problems etc (I can try to verify in the meantime with
legal-discuss, just to close the discussion on it), maybe we could publish the
pack200 version of our jars (signed and not signed) in the web site (and only
there), so our demos and examples could have smaller downloads ... but wait, I
see our client-side jars are approx. 4.2 MB (with our default build options,
so they will contain debug info) and the same in pack200 version is less than
2.0 MB (stripping out debug info) so probably could be useful to put them in
the same folder of web site and enable its usage in our pages, but I repeat
only for web demos and tutorials ...
On a profile for ProGuard maybe we could try to put a sample of it in our svn
...
Both things are now under this ticket:

On this I don't know if we could do something, probably it's domain of the
JVM+OS, but we can take a look to see what is possible.

> Key: PIVOT-754
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-754
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wtk
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Environment: Observed both on Linux and Windows Vista, Firefox 3.x
> and Firefox 4.0.1
> Java 6 update 25.
> Reporter: Piotr Kołaczkowski
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0.1

> Attachments: pivot-graybox.patch

> When the applet starts, a progress bar is displayed. When the applet finishes
> downloading, the progress bar disappears, leaving a gray box until the pivot
> toolkit loads the application. Even for the simpliest application displaying
> an empty window, pivot requires about 0.3 s to start (on Core2Duo 2.2 GHz),
> so the gray box effect can be easily seen. The gray box effect does not
> happen always, but in about half of the cases.
> Below I submit patch we made to the BrowserApplicationContext.java file.
> Seems like setting the applet's background to white and delaying the
> add(displayHost) call as late as possible does the trick:
> [code]
> 51a52
> > private boolean displayHostInstalled = false;
> 151c152,154
> < add(displayHost);

> > // Don't add it now, add it later, to avoid ugly gray box:
