Re: [Gnash] xara backend

[Udo Giacomozzi]

Hello kfs1,

I had some mail exchange with Charles Moir from the Xara development
team. The drawing engine ("CDraw") is currently *not* GPL licensed and
will be the last part of the software that will. So we have to be a
bit patient.

In the meantime I could test Gnash with some self created movies and
it worked very well.

We are currently setting up a dedicated development machine so that we
can start developing a new framebuffer based backend in the near
future. It will probably become a DirectFB backend, but we still have
to decide.

Later, when CDraw is GPL'ed, that may come as next step, maybe.
