as discussed, I will attempt to 'open the door' for this
non-https JNLP download, i.e. not redirecting these URLs.
But I won't go any further for now.
For 2.4.0 release, I would need to know if there are
any JNLP interested parties or not, worth the effort.
However, we won't sign the JARs anymore
and the old JARs's signature has expired.
Your mileage may vary .. (YMMV).
Will report here when I did the 'redirection hole'.
