Under current circumstances at least, losing Adobe Flash Player from a Debian desktop system is a big deal because of the loss of YouTube because, as I understand it, the free Flash players don't work with YouTube.
Hi. YouTube already works with Gnash the free Flash player, so that in particular should not be a problem. Many other sites are not yet working, but Gnash could be possibly defined as working "well enough" in time for the Lenny. At least I'm using it exclusively anyway, and I'm just using the 0.8.1 version, which lacks development for the last four months. But I don't find it problematic to skip sites that don't work with Gnash, so I'm not an average user.
In summary, Gnash works rather well for Flash 7 sites, but quite a large portion of sites has moved to Flash 8 and 9 which are only a work-in-progress with regards to Gnash, and most do not work properly. Time will tell how fast Gnash will progress.
