[osflash] Tamarin!

[Zárate]

Wow!

Maybe is not the whole Flash Player NOW, but it will be in the long
term when it would be difficult to find swfs with versions under 9, am
i right?

And opening the source of the ASVM2 would allow a public bug list,
isn't it? And people porting that player to platforms where right now
the official version is 6 (psp) or 7 (FlashLite2 or PPC player),
right?

Wow again!
