Test gnash against your animations.  When you find the places where
your flash animations don't work, do two things:
  1) Try to simplify the animation and still reproduce the flaw.  This
     will help us fix the bug behind the flaw.
  2) Try to work around the flaw.  This is a short-term fix, but it
     also allows animators to write animations that are compatible
     with gnash.

 > Donations to buy something?

Donations are gladly appreciated.  They may be made directly to the
Open Media Now foundation, or if you itemize taxes and need to make a
charitable donation, to the Public Software Fund, marked for the Open
Media Now project.

 > Find more programmers?

Mmmm... generally everybody who knows how to program already has their
own todo list.  Best to get people interested in gnash via the following:

 > Spread the word about Gnash?

Best thing to do is just talk about gnash.  Post to your website or
blog how you're testing your flash movies against gnash to make sure
that you're compatible.  Post how to use gnash.  Post how to get
gnash.  Just talk about it.  No evangelism needed; just enthusiasm.
