Thank you very much for your work, and for this information - this is great news. I agree that we should move forward with linux-flash9 under FreeBSD, just in case. Do you have any insight into why that solution is unworkable currently ? Who, if anyone, is working on that ? Out of curiousity, which flash player do you use in FreeBSD, and what is your recipe for making it work ? Thank you.
