[General] must be connected?

roger@stat.Berkeley.EDU
to the creators of Lively Kernel:

I could not tell from the FAQ
whether it will be possible for
applications such as

   "A Lively Engine"
            or
   "Asteriods"

to run in a browser
window (Safari or Firefox)
without being connected
to the internet.

Even a brief remark would be
very helpful.

Thank you,

Roger Purves

These applications do not require a network
connection when they are running.

However, without a network connection, you will not be able
to launch these applications (or any other Lively Kernel
applications) unless the application source code is located
on your local machine.

 From your web browser, you can launch "offline" applications
using "file:" instead of "http:".
