A Note about Air Mozilla [and Flash/Theora]
,----[ Quote ]
| The live webcast requires the Flash player 9 plugin (for Windows, Mac OS or
| Linux) to be installed to view the video stream. For a number of reasons, I’m
| less than happy about requiring the use of a proprietary piece of software on
| the client end to experience the webcast. Because we know not everyone who’s
| interested in the interview has Flash installed, we’ll be quickly archiving
| and making available the recorded webcast in multiple formats, including
| Theora, shortly after the live webcast.

There is increasing awareness of these issues. Flash 9, by the way, contains
proprietary (pricey) video codecs, so gnash hits a barrier.
