Talk:Gnash (software)

message: Some other free-software programs, such as Mplayer or VLC can play FLV if the file is specially downloaded or piped to it.
How the heck is a citation supposed to be provided? They just can. You can download the player and play some FLV files to verify this. - Sikon 06:44, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Gnash-logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

replies: text: Do you really care? The Free Software Foundation is not going to sue you for copyright violations unless you use free software source code in non-free software. They are the Free Software Foundation, they exist to support sharing. this image is probably under the GPL. FSF would probably be sad you don't understand the meaning of Freedom. This is ridiculous.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.49.191.154 (talk) 16:08, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Comparison 

message: According to the article, "code developed by the Gnash project which might be useful in GameSWF is placed in the public domain." And yet, according to the mailing list post cited, "We're forking the code and pushing
foward.  New code for Gnash will be licensed under the GPL." It says the Gnash developers "can" contribute bugfixes to the public domain project, but nowhere does it state that this is an explicit policy. In fact, their announcement of a fork implies that helping to maintain the public domain codebase is precisely what they don't intend to do. PCM2 (talk) 22:43, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Is there a difference between "playing" and "playing back", as it seems in the article? If yes, it should be explained or referred to.--Henri de Solages (talk) 15:03, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: In my understanding, Gnash project is essentially in maintenance mode (that is, no features are being added; only bugs are fixed), and not really discontinued.
While there are no releases, some occasional updates to project codebase could still be seen on Git VCS at http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnash.git/ (At the time of this writing, latest update is Jan, 28 2017)
Note that GNU/Linux distributions like Debianhttps://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=gnash&searchon=names and Ubuntuhttp://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=gnash&searchon=names ship these bleeding edge snaphot versions of Gnash.
