Problems with YouTube are close to be removed

Friday, February 23rd, 2007

This is something worth announcing during FOSDEM 🙂 In a chat with Gnash maintainer,  Rob Savoye, Peter Brown discovered that YouTube videos will soon be available for Free Software users and all free digital citizens.

It works in CVS as a "hack job" […] I expect, that with community help for Gnash and support from the ffmpeg and Gstreamer folks, the next release will enable us to put an end to the number one bug report we receive – Gnash won’t play YouTube videos.

This is good news.  Gnash is one of FSF’s high priority projects.  If you wish to contribute go to  http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/.
