Gnash Summerbash Blog #1

The Gnash summer project is moving right along. The Gnash project has taken on 5 interns to help with making Gnash more compatible with new Actionscript 3 classes. This increase in compatibility is essential to the success of the Gnash project and we are happy to have the opportunity to help make this goal a reality. Over the past several weeks the Gnash Intern team has been working on:
1. Implementing and translating testsuites from a flash compiler (ming) which doesn't support Flash 9 and 10 to haxe, a compiler which supports actionscript 3.
2. Migrating the core Actionscript libraries to a newer (more Flash 9-like) naming convention.
3. Beginning implementation of previously unimplemented functionality in Gnash (specifically Camera and Video support for video conferencing).

Keep up with our progress -- check out the Gnash 2009 Summer Project wiki. We will be updating this site and the wiki linked to above as we continue to make progress on the project.
