Of course they have. I talk to Googlers at higher and lower levels all the time. They can't make a straight-up standards-track case for Pepper, NaCl, or even PNaCl, so they are trying market power. Since they don't have Microsoft-in-2001-level market share they are also nudging us now and then to jump on board. > We shouldn't assume that they wouldn't help us with the Pepper > Flash player without asking them.

Shumway all the way. /be _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
