So I was thinking that there is probably about zero chance that Adobe would port Flash to Haiku, at least in the foreseeable future. But they have made a Linux version, even supporting the latest Flash 9. So if we want to get Flash support on Haiku, there are at least two options: 1) Figure out what library calls the Linux Flash plug-in uses and implement those minimum just to get the Flash plug-in working in Haiku. I did a quick objdump of the plugin and it seems to use pthreads, some X calls, parts of GDK and GTK, FreeType and some fontconfig calls. Plus of course the Mozilla plug-in callbacks. So quite a bit, which could be a big pain just for Flash support. But still it would be neat ;) Of course the first question is: are Linux .so files loadable in Haiku, as long as all their dependencies are there? 2) Port Gnash: http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/ This seems to be in pretty active development, which can be good and bad. Good in that new stuff is being added and bugs are being fixed, but bad in that it could be hard to keep a port up-to-date. In addition, it currently only supports up to Flash 7 (which fortunately is the highest a lot of sites use.) Gnash also has a lot of dependencies, but fortunately several are already ported to Haiku (like AGG and SDL.) Either way getting Flash won't be super easy. Of course I imagine most of us could live without YouTube and Google Video and other Flash sites, but at the end of the day lack of Flash just becomes one more reason you can't use Haiku all day, every day. Any input would be appreciated. But let's not let this discussion get out of hand :) Ryan P.S. I know many core Haiku developers are trying to focus on just the system right now, but it won't hurt to plan ahead a bit.
