Hi,

The newly released Gnash 0.8.5 works nicely for me - I have now watched 
a youtube video online for the first time ever (I've used clive till 
now). And the british mikmik webdesign website that interests my 
girlfriend works too.

The new release should contain improved ways to optimizxe for slow 
hardware (e.g. XOs and netbooks) - I have no experience in that, 
however.

For those of you using Debian but the stable release (Lenny) instead of 
unstable (Sid) like me, I have backportet the new Gnash for i386 and 
amd64.  Add to /etc/apt/sources.lst the line below, if you want it:

deb http://debian.jones.dk/ lenny gnash


    - Jonas


P.S.

I still dislike Flash for content and am very happy that Barry and 
others are now orking actively on W3C-standards-based tools instead. To 
me Gnash is important for old content but I strongly believe in a 
brighter future :-)
