  There won't be an alpha release till the plugin works at the same 
level of functionality as the standalone player. Right now I'm dealing 
with the fact that OpenGL doesn't like threaded programs so it hangs 
Firefox a lot still... That and some other odd OpenGL issues... I can 
now get an image in the window, but it's all messed up like this:

  The Gnash standalone player used to run on win32, and probably will 
in the future, but at this time the recent development has been all done 
on GNU/Linux systems. Careful attention has been paid to keeping things 
portable, but we're focusing more on adding and fixing core 
functionality to making a stable first release. The plans are to support 
win32 as well as Darwin in time.

  Any developers on these other platforms are welcome to jump in and 
make this work right now. :-) For one thing, I don't even own a win32 
machine... and my Mac is ancient.
