[vtkusers] vtk and web applications, Jython

Hi,

I have two related questions which relate to serving vtk
python code as an web applet.

a) Is it possible to set up VTK so that it renders into a window
   of a web browser (i.e. forms (part of) a plug-in viewer, or 
   is invoked from a plug-in like Web Start).

b) Has anybody tried to run a Python app using Jython calling
   the Java-wrapped vtk classes rather than the Python wrappings?
   I am wondering how similar the code would look to the
   Python/vtk code, and whether there would be any
   major performance problems.

thanks

Paul Sherwood
