That sounds like a much better idea. I'll try to set up something like that on my webserver, though I'll have to move elsewhere if the activity gains any kind of popularity. It still leaves the problem of the images uploading to my personal Flickr account though. I think having a Panorama Collec

Fwd: ship Gnash 0.8.4 RC1 in OLPC 8.2.0?

2008-10-12 Thread Carlos Nazareno
