      The deployment guide for Java 7 begins with a mention of the applet tag.
      (See this page: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/plugin/developer_guide/overview.html).

      The guide should be updated to emphasize that the best practice for deploying applets in 7u40 and beyond is to use a signed JNLP file, and explain how you do this (i.e. the JNLP file isn't actually signed, but is contained within a signed JAR, etc.).
