Comment:

 OK, Rob's latest version seems significantly better and is in the build as
 of 364; we also have Flash 9 as a drop in possibility.  Gnash won't handle
 youtube in this build; dunno why not.

 We should probably create a gnash component. http://cat-in-the-
 kettle.funnypart.com/ still gives gnash serious indigestion. Rob, how do
 you want to handle problem reports with gnash?

 joaoboscoapf: directions are now in the wiki about how to customize your
 own image before installation across multiple machines. No matter what,
 you'll want to customize: the MP3 patent situation keeps us from shipping
 a version of gnash with MP3 built in from this jurisdiction.  Adobe Flash
 requires a license to ship bundled, though as an end user it is free as in
 beer to you to use.
