I've stubbed some wiki pages for helping with this: http://gnashdev.org/wiki/index.php/Gnash#Flash_Movies_We_Want_To_Run Please click on LuluTV and YouTube and add info there about what model are being used and what does Gnash misses. > 2.

We need testcases for this. I think XML is pretty good atm while XMLSocket needs to be tested with a server smarter then a simple netcat dumping a file to the socket. > 4. Fix any nasty memory leaks. Leaks are intrinsic in the model until we implement the GC. I might give it a try but I'm afraid it would destabilize the code a lot. Of course we can fix leaks outside of the VM if we find them. > 5.

I haven't looked at this, but would it mean translating all the ACTIONSCRIPT ERROR and MALFORMED SWF warnings ? I'm asking because those warnings change and augment very often. --strk; > Optional items are: > > 1. Finish the Cairo support. > 2. Finish the Gstreamer support so ffmpeg isn't required. > 3.
