Hi

Is there an easy way to get a *recent* version of the moonlight plugin working on Gentoo? The one from http://www.go-mono.com/moonlight/ is one year old and the only thing it does is crash.

That one "works" for me (no crashing) though its usefullness is hit and miss. It is the latest (last?) version as far as I know. They've disabled building nightlies because it is no longer being actively developed.

There hasn't been a commit to the git repo in over a year:
https://github.com/mono/moon.git

Seems moonlight project is basically dead now:
