I feel much more safe if it's in the different place other than browser-plugins for avoid future conflict if Adobe, Macromedia and etc have decided to create a native one. Also, it will be nice to have browser_linux_plugins for all other Linux browsers (linux-opera, linux-firefox and etc) can point on the browser_linux_plugins in case if we want to add Linux version of mplayerplug-in and etc. Cheers, Mezz -- mezz7@cox.net - mezz@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD GNOME Team http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/ - gnome@FreeBSD.org
