MS or Adobe, it's the same fight.... only Open Source has a real fight against trust control... but as Nicoloas said, it's political, especially when a new communication mean has a lot of power in a society....

Sadly standards are often driven by the people with the biggest user bases, so unless we cause problems for Adobe over this, stuff may not happen. On a positive note though, people power often works - consider the "Adobe Make Some Noise" campaign. I think they are more willing to listen and the Flash community is certainly quite vocal. I would love to see Silverlight developers kicking MS butt in a few years :) Glen Robin Debreuil wrote: I think the Adobe link says AS3 will not be dropped -- it is a bit hard to parse though : ). Javascript dropped the ball about 5 years ago anyway, so let it stick to roll over buttons.
