[Red5] The New Flash Player INTENDED SUMMARY

I read a few of the links this should save you some time....

A)New flash Player release, Featuring New Video Codec Capability H.264...
And other bits and bytes 
B)Adobe Developer Blog saying only FMS will LEGALLY stream to Flash player
content encoded with h.264
C)Lots of speculations on what this will.. and will not do.

I think ... lets give it time. The announcement should be good a step
forward for everyone.

(I though vp6 and vp7 were one of the new 7 wonders...
 and they seem to be but only for:
low processor 
low memory 
low bandwidth machines)

I think not, and that's what's causing all the talk :-)
