Blogging Ottinger (tim)Open Source Flash And Shockwave
A new article introduced me to Gnash!. GNU is once again doing what commercial companies would not do. Gnu is now creating a good, free, clean-room implementation of a shockwave player for Linux. I think that my kids will be quite excited about this, since they love flash games. I like that it’s a standalone movie viewer. I like silliness like Switch To Linux and StrongBad Email. I’m sure there is all kinds of silliness I could archive for later play.
I’m kind of interested in finding some shockwave/flash authoring solutions that run in Linux. Maybe an open-source implementation makes all of that possible.
