Hi Nicholas,

I disagree. Yesterday a member of the Mozilla Foundation posted to the
Gnash list, requesting that Gnash be moved to the LGPL licence, so
that it could be bundled with the Mozilla browser. If the OS plugin is
bundled with the standard Firefox browser, it could, very rapidly,
gain a substantial market share.

It's early days yet, which is why I'm pointing this out now, rather
than a year or two down the line.

Cheers,
Alias
