Lightspark, an innovative FLOSS Flash player, reaches Beta Status
,----[ Quote ]
| The long term objecÂtive of this project is
| not only to deliver a free as in freeÂdom
| flash player, but also to give to the Flash
| techÂnolÂogy the digÂnity of a real open stanÂ
| dard. I really believe Flash is a powÂerÂful
| techÂnolÂogy, itâs main weakÂness being itâs
| closedÂness. Lightspark has been entirely
| designed after Adobe released the SWF file
| forÂmat docÂuÂmenÂtaÂtion, so no reverse engiÂneerÂ
| ing has been done.

Adobe Should Open Source Flash
,----[ Quote ]
| Even if Google opens VP8 there are slim
| chances that arch rivals like Microsoft,
| especially Apple, will adopt Ogg format,
| despite its superior quality and openness.
|
| Google should add more weight to Ogg by
| dropping support for proprietary H.264 and
| encouraging usage of Ogg. Considering its
| ownership of YouTube, Chrome browser,
| Android and upcoming Chome OS, Google is in
| a very strong position to boost deployment
| of Ogg over H.264. IE is weakening; Firefox
| is gaining market, Chrome is picking up;
| Opera already supports Ogg, this would be
| the best move for Google to 'force' a free
| format.
