Flash for Linux -- It's Not for Designers (internetnews.com) Posted Feb 16, 2007 1:53 UTC (Fri) by drag (subscriber, #31333) [Link] My guess would be:"It's propriatory software"
If it was open source/free software then every distribution would support it out of the box and it would more then likely support PowerPC, Sparc, Arm and whatever else people care to use it with.
Flash for Linux -- It's Not for Designers (internetnews.com) Posted Feb 16, 2007 3:10 UTC (Fri) by k8to (subscriber, #15413) [Link] Yes my list was basically proprietary, and then some stranglehold dreams and brain damage which lead to this being the case. The dream of owning the platform. Everyone wants to be Microsoft.
Sure, you can succeed by inventing the platform and making all the best tools for it, but that would cause your company to stay focused and keep quality up. It's much easier to claim openness while creating roadblocks. That way you can lose focus and drift from your moorings.
