[OSM-dev] OSM Applet

[Nick Black]

Mean to send this to the list:

Cheers. built successfully with runapplet.sh - after a couple of changes.

1) I had to create a directory:

/var/lib/tomcat4/webapps/api/WEB-INF/lib

2) I had to steal copy xml.jsp from someone's /home/ on dev as its not
in SVN anymore.

Is xml.jsp even needed anymore?
