There are a lot of great education activities done in Flash and their # will only increase simply because it is very easy to develop animations using flash. Check out www.eshikshaindia.in for more great learning animations. Those did not work w/ Gnash when I tried it last month. I have a lot of respect for what the Gnash guys have done but the best strategy would be to make it easy for deployment teams to bundle flash w/ the XO. So many Internet sites depend on it. From my understanding of the Adobe license terms, you can distribute Flash w/in an intranet, which I judge to mean I can install it on the XO's for Nepal's pilot schools. One thing is definitely clear, you cannot bundle flash into an xo image available on the internet. However, I believe that I can make the flash plugin to a school intranet via the XS and still conform to the Adobe license. AFAIK the flash plugin only requires one file to be installed as far as I can tell libflashplayer.so The easiest way technically to do this would be to put in a symlink from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins to /home/olpc/mozilla/plugins and then modify the customization key script to look for flash and other plugins and copy them to the home/.../plugins folder Bryan Kathmandu _______________________________________________ Olpc-open mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/olpc-open
