Actually, Flash9 on FreeBSD 7.x is working pretty good now with Linux  
emulation. In fact, the sound syncs up better on my default PC-BSD  
alpha box than on my mac! I'm watching entire episodes of Fringe on  
Hulu.com with no problems. Get it up to a million dollars and we'll  
just pay Adobe for the port ;-)

I think the point for sites like this is having somewhere more formal  
to track projects, sponsors, and developers as it relates to monetary  
bounties.
