version.class on applet startup
Oct 4th, 2005, 8:41pm  
I was looking through the debug messages in my Java console today, and noticed the following lines being printed whenever I open my applet in a browser.  Why is Processing connecting to processing.org on startup?  The Processing IDE is not running when this occurs.

that's a tiny applet on the processing.org home page that sends back what version of java you're using, so that we can track these things.
