Hey Richard, I know you know this. The browser plugin wars are over.
Macromedia won (with Flash), end of story....at least that's what any
investor worth his salt will tell you.

Richard, I agree with you, the future is AJAX, DOM, Jscript and
Frameworks. Just check out what the investors ARE investing in.

I know you remeber Meta-Creations. They sold their whole company (tons
of great programs) and everything in it, lock, stock and barrel and
bet their future on a plugin. That was 7 years ago, and just look how
far they've come!

Let's all get serious, perhaps it is technically feasible..or not.
But's it definitely not feasible marketing-wise. I mean who in their
right mind would believe a company with RR's resources could/would
ever execute such a late-stage plugin wars strategy???

The marketing considerations alone are staggering. Perhaps if RR was
sold to Google or IBM or someone with the resources, but even then I
doubt we'd see a RR native plugin.

I haven't found an investor willing to back it.  Maybe I'm just not well
connected.  I would enjoy seeing anyone able demonstrate the business
case for this plugin with an investor willing to underwrite it.
