Description:

  Pipelight is a NPAPI wrapper plugin for using Windows plugins in Linux
  browsers and therefore giving you the possibility to access services
  which are otherwise not available for Linux users.  Typical examples of
  such services are Netflix and Amazon Instant, which both use the
  proprietary browser plugin Silverlight.  These services cannot normally
  be used on Linux since this plugin is only available for Windows.

  Pipelight helps you access these services by using the original
  Silverlight plugin directly in your browser, all while giving you a
  better hardware acceleration and performance than a virtual machine.
  Besides Silverlight, you can also use a variety of other plugins that
  are supported by Pipelight.

  Pipelight will take care of installing, configuring and updating all
  supported plugins.  From the perspective of the browser these plugins
  will behave just like any other normal Linux plugin after you have
  enabled them.

  For further information about all supported plugins, their installation,
  configuration and usage, please visit http://pipelight.net/.


Issues:

  fedora-review shows no obvious issues.  AFAIK there might be some false
  positives from rpmlint.

Additional Information:

  Pipelight has already been in the Fedora repositories, but has been dropped
  shortly afterwards due to legal issues.


Many thanks for the review in advance!  ^^
