Great! I've started to work on the port update. Btw, what sites do
mirror it? I've found gnashdev/getgnash (which seem to be the same
server) quite slow (~30KB/s) so I'm using my own mirror (mirror.amdim3.ru)
for the port with higher priority than getgnash, so it will be great
to add more mirrors. Will it appear on savannah?

Yep, I saw those and that's a great work, but all I need is source
snapshots to keep the -devel port up to date. Binary package isn't of
much help here.

The only up-to-date source snapshot I've seen there is
http://www.getgnash.org/packages/snapshots/gnash-prerelease_20090227.tar.gz
but that's a week ago already.

That would be great, too bad it requires that much valuable developer
time...
