There are two parts for Linux port :

a) port the "system.c" which is just an interface for creating a window 
and handling some OS-specific stuff. It's only a few Ko of sources so it 
should be quick. Once done it means you can display the player.

b) the biggest problem is that since there is no FP8 for Linux it means 
no ExternalInterface and then no synchronous communications between the 
System and Flash layer. A first solution can be to have at least async 
communications by using FSCommand, then later maybe find a "hack" to 
enable synchronized comm on FP7 (we have some ideas but nothing done).

There is no timeline for this and any help is appreciated ;)

Nicolas
