Earlier in 2013 Google announced it's plans to Phase out support for NPAPI based plug-ins and software in Chrome. They had originally planned to have everything phased out by 2014 though it didn't happen.

Now in 2015 Google is finishing their initiative and is about to finally phase out support of Java, Silverlight, and other smaller NPAPI plug-ins.
Many gaming sites have already developed desktop versions of their browser based games or have begun advising people to switch to other browsers.
Mozilla in 2014 began to follow behind google a bit and turned plug-in usage to what they called "Click-to-play" plug-ins for security.

Now it is rumored that they are again following suite with google and will fully be removing support of many NPAPI plug-ins.
I haven't dug to much into Oxwall's coding, so getting to the question: Does Oxwall use anything based in java, Silverlight, etc. and if so are there any plans in place to conform with these browser changes?
