| No I haven't. How is it?

| well, icedtea, from the latest news in my possession has merged with

| gnash is now fully compatible with flash v7 and has about 50% of flash 8
| and 9 serie. now with the opening of the flash format specifications
| gnash should progress much faster than it was before. for example i've
| read that with firefox 2 with gnash and java youtube (usually a quite
| bad site for flash players and which has also some java code included,
| for my knowledge) is playing well (more than 85% of videos work well and
| the remnants just need to use the gnash controls to work).
| but as i've said, i haven't tried it yet so i don't know if these
