They are asking for help please see below. I have no coding skills but will help in any way possible (making ebuilds for example).

I just thought you might want to take a look at this page to get an idea of
where the gplflash-design is going:
http://gplflash.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/GplFlashRedesign
The things on that page isn't final, but atleast it's a start.
Also http://gplflash.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/IRCMeeting might help.

cheers,

Tomas

Hi all,

As you might have noticed there hasen't been all that much activity around
gplflash in the last 3-6 month. This has among other thing been due to the
developers being busy with other things, and because we wanted to find out in
what direction gplflash should go. It has been decided that the current design
of gplflash2 is too mesy, and that a redesign is necessary in order to make the
code more modular, and easier to understand, maintain, and add features.
In order to make the startup of new design/code easy we took a closer look at a
new kid on the block: "Gnash" - a newly greated fork of gameswf. Gnash got many
of the features we would like to see in a new gplflash; more modular, and it's
current support for animations is quite impressive, though it's missing some
sound support and got no support for video.
So the design team is putting forward a suggestion to skip the gplflash2
redesign, and instead jump on the gnash-train, since improving on gnash will
probably be easier and more effective than starting from scratch.
But what do you think about all this? Should we ditch the gplflash-project? Or
shall we continue on our course with the independent re-design?

Let the discussion begin!

Cheers,

Tomas

that's nice, trying to concentrate and improve one product instead of making two products which would progres much slower.

you can put it as ~x86 in package.keywords and it will build just fine but without plugin. You would have to modify ebuild a bit to have plugin installed. There is one thread about this allready. You can probably find it if you search for gnash in these forums.
