GNASH FAQ: $Id: FAQ.txt,v 1.15 2008/10/14 09:28:59 nelsonrn Exp $
	
	* Q:	Is GNASH an abbreviation or acronym?
	  A:	No, we're just gnashing our teeth over not being
		able to play flash files on our favourite platforms
		and having to use a proprietary flash player.
		http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proprietary_software

	* Q: 	Does Gnash support flv / my-favourite-codec?
	  A: 	As long as it's linked against ffmpeg
		(http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/) and IFF ffmpeg supports it, yes.
		For flv, the answer is definitely yes.

	* Q:	When will you release the next version?
	  A:	When we feel that the code in bzr is mature enough, and when
		we have added a few features which didn't exist in the previous
		release.  After every release there is a period of instability
		in the bzr version while major changes are made.
		The latest stable release is 0.8.4.

	* Q:	Will gnash run on <insert favourite OS>?
	  A:	Sure :). Success has been reported on all Unices, Haiku (BeOS),
		Windows, Darwin (Mac OS/X) and a variety of embedded devices.
		See gnu.org/software/gnash -> Wiki -> BuildMatrix for a list.

	* Q:	What about Tamarin then?
	  A:	Gnash already has a good, working virtual machine, and most
		of the ActionScript classes are already implemented. 
		Therefore, we have no need of Tamarin.

	* Q:	I'm a flash developer, how can I help?
	  A:	We are always in need of code which demonstrates a bug,
		or which exercises a test case.  Contact us by sending an
		email to the gnash-dev@gnu.org list.

	* Q:	Isn't it great that Adobe opened up the Flash documentation?
	  A:	No, not really.  We already figured out everything we needed
		to know.  But it's great of them to promise not to sue us.

	* Q: 	Feature X is broken, what have you guys done wrong?
	  A: 	Please file a bug report at Gnash's savannah:
		http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnash

	* Q:	WHY BOOST? It is HUGE!
	  A:	Portability and functionality.  Plus, Boost is being added
                to the C++ library, bit by bit.

	* Q:	Hey, I built Gnash and it's sooo sloooow.
	  A:	Yes, we know :) but you can tailor your configure options for
	  	the hardware you are running Gnash on. If you have a working
		OpenGL system, configure with --enable-renderer=opengl.
		If you don't have a hardware-accelerated OpenGL driver,
		try using the AGG renderer onto the frame buffer device.

	* Q:	I built and installed klash but Konqueror still doesn't see it
		and sends me to get the commercial plugin.
	  A:	Did you ''make install-plugin'' ?
