Re: [Gnash] Re: Time for a new gnash release?

I agree with Perter on this.  I installed gnash for a while on my
ubuntu amd64 box.  However, it worked so poorly (didn't work for
youtube, e.g. and often ran at 100% cpu) that I removed it.  Since
then (last fall) I've been waiting for an announcement of a stable
release before trying it again.
