That would be horrible! Do you want the FreeBSD Foundation to work against our freedom and encourage the use of proprietary binary formats on the World Wide Web?

While gnash cannot replace Flash as of today it is evolving quickly. Best regards, Jona -- "I am chaos. I am the substance from which your artists and scientists build rhythms.
