Patches against bzr trunk only, please.

If there are no licensing conflicts with the GPLv3 it may be possible,
though maintenance would be your responsibility (or any other AmigaOS
users).

I'm not really keen on adding more GUIs in the main repository. In fact,
I'd like to remove some, as they all have to be updated whenever the
interface changes (and there are already six fully-fledged GUIs plus the
dump gui), or they get out of date and leave Gnash's codebase in a mess.

You might also consider keeping it in a separate repository (which may
be a good idea for some existing but less-used GUIs) and maintaining it
there. If you want to do that (and again, if there are no licensing
problems), I should think we can provide links and info to that
repository.

What do other devs think?
