I have disabled adobe flash, and done some testing with gnash for the past days. it turns out the potlach is usable. there are some issues that I have reported here, more to test. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_FLOSS/PotlatchGnash
Today, I tested in on my fresh rails import http://xhema.flossk.org:3000/ and it runs perfectly when no data is in there. so it seems to be an issue of the amount of data that causes the mouse to lag. this can surly be optimized. mike On Fri, Mar 12, 2010 at 8:53 PM, Stefan Monnier <monn...@iro.umontreal.ca>wrote: > >> And use the gnash runtime. > > I think it is a good idea to generate gnash-compatible Flash apps, for > > example to support whatever embedded system/ smartphone with > > a powerful OS. > > Agreed.
