Hey guys,

Just reading bits and pieces from these threads, I just have one small  
point to make.

Aside from practical issues targeting for gnash and otherwise, which I  
can completely agree with; I feel there's a bit of negativity around  
free flash players in general.

Although they might not be up to par with adobe's player, I feel the  
effort is something we should all promote and support.
Open source has helped us all tremendously, and an open flash player  
is something is not some special edge case.

If you don't believe in the open source spirit, and you're perhaps  
just a leech. you should still understand that competition drives  
innovation.

I personally run the adobe flash player, but look forward to the day  
there's solid viable alternatives.

</end of rant>
