Ask for FreeBSD support here! Let's join forces!

Please add a comment in this blog thread to ask for Adobe Flash
developper to support FreeBSD and not just Linux :)

http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/2006/08/across_the_distros_1.html

I think he is the only developper working on a Flash Plugin for Unix.

If you believe the Internet should be free for all

If you believe the Internet should be free for all please sign this
petition for native support of flashplayer on BSD.

PC-BSD which is the operating system I use the most is a very easy to
use system that is free in price and open source. It's goal is to make
FreeBSD which is used by Yahoo and many ISP's user friendly for regular
people to use on their desktops. The only issue new users struggle with
is viewing flash supported web sites as while the OS provides a simple
Graphical way of installing software. To use "flash" you need to install
Linux software just to get limited support. If you have ever viewed a
website you have likely been served by a Linux or BSD server.

Please sign here and pass it on.

http://www.PetitionOnline.com/flash4me/

Early BSD helped bring the Internet into the world. It's only fair that
people who use the modern versions of this operating system to surf the
web from their desktop not just serve it out to others.

You can keep your E-Mail private and everyones by using "Bcc" instead of
"To" to forward this message.

Thank You

PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO EVERY CORNER OF THE INTERNET

Well, I do not know if you will like or no, but you can read my entrance 
with my nick; TooManySecrets, requesting support for the binary ones of 
Flash in FreeBSD.

RE: Ask for FreeBSD support here! Let's join forces!

The next release of Adobe flash developer will have a revised license which
will include FreeBSD. This was per the product manager.

[Fwd: porting the RealPlayer]

Hi all,

I met with a developer of the Real Player at Linux World. She says they 
would *love* to port a native version of the Real player to FreeBSD. 
Yay! She even showed me that they have an older FreeBSD dev environment 
set up and are ready to start to try compiling it for release after we 
get it up to date.

We need a couple of FreeBSD experts to assist with 
questions/expertise/feedback to make sure this gets finished ;-)
Please send me your name/email off list and I'll reply to her with a 
shortlist of who can help them.

Thanks!

Hey Matt -

It was great to meet you at Linux World.  FreeBSD is near to my heart, 
although I'm not totally knowledgeable on it, sadly.  I'm a FreeBSD fan to 
the point of wanting to do the RealPlayer port to FreeBSD myself when I 
first started this job.. but.. they piled me down with meetings and 
spec-writing before I even got a chance to see it compile once.

Which is why I'm so excited that you were so receptive to getting the 
RealPlayer on FreeBSD.  I've been talking to the guy who runs our build 
environments and he's checking to see if anyone else is using the FreeBSD 
5.0 box.  If not, we'll upgrade it asap.  Do you have any recommendations

Since it's great to volunteer others ;-) maybe netchild <at>  (cc'ed) has
time for this ?

License is not the most important. What is important for the end user
is having a native version of his own operating system :)

I read this last month:

http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/2006/07/api_review.html

The using ALSA for sound in version 9 doesn't sound very good for
getting it to work on FreeBSD even if/when the license allows it. I
don't understand why it's so hard for them to make it compatible with
more OSes. They are in the business of selling software to create
content in their proprietary Flash format, but if that can't be viewed
on every common OS, then I think/know developers will not develop
exclusively in Flash as much. Granted up to date Flash support is
available for Windows and the majority of computer users, but I do know
some developers who want their websites to be viewable for everyone, and
therefore have chosen not to develop in Flash. On the other hand, lots
of big sites use all Flash for their designs (and some 8+ so we can't
view them at all), so maybe the designers who do care about full
compatibility and wouldn't buy their products or develop in Flash don't
matter as much since Adobe already has tons of business and doesn't
have much financial incentive to make it more compatible.

However, Adobe is already doing major work on Flash 9 for Linux, so I
