The manifest for activation.jar should contain these attributes:

        Specification-Vendor: Sun Microsystems, Inc
        Specification-Version:
        Implementation-Vendor-Id: com.sun
        Implementation-Vendor: Sun Microsystems, Inc
        Implementation-Version:

This will help make activation a downloadable and installable
extension. (the other piece is signing the jar file, which i am also
looking into. if anyone reading this knows how to sign a jar file that
we distribute, please contact me ... thank you)

The latest release of JavaMail (mail.jar) has these attributes in the
manifest, and can be used as an example.

I missed an attribute in the above list. Also needed is:

         Extension-Name:
         
The manifest for JavaMail 1.2 FCS contains all these attributes, and so
is now an even better example to follow.
