Adobe donates Flash to Mozilla

Yup, a very clever move. The Flash player will no longer be a proprietry closed source plugin, shunned by the developers of the world. Hopefully the donation of the Flash player to Mozilla will herald a new age of interative development, and better and more standards compliant integration of Flash content with HTML, AJAX and the browser.

    Awesomeness! About time too. Hopefully this will start to help alleviate the pain of the lack of support for 64-bit plugins for Flash on variousl OSes.
