[Gnash-dev] firefox plugin feature request

[Patrick Alken]

Hello all,

  I would like to try out the latest gnash firefox plugin, but there 
does not seem to be anything pre-compiled available for download. I'm 
using an older release of ubuntu which only ships with a very old 
version of gnash (0.8.7) and I understand newer versions are much improved.

Adobe Flash has always made available a simple .so file for download 
which you just stick in your mozilla/plugins folder and it just works, 
regardless of your linux distro. Why can't gnash do something similar? I 
think this would encourage many more people to give it a try if you 
provided a .so file which just works.

Thanks,
Patrick
