Adobe donates Flash to Mozilla

Saturday, November 11th, 2006

Yup, a very clever move. The Flash player will no longer be a proprietry closed source plugin, shunned by the developers of the world. Hopefully the donation of the Flash player to Mozilla will herald a new age of interative development, and better and more standards compliant integration of Flash content with HTML, AJAX and the browser.
