And I don't know whether it is only .swf that is closed non standard and .flv is some standard video format, or both are propietary and flv support by free software is reverse engineering or otherwise hard work without much guarantee to be maintainable because of the aribtrarieness of the format...
I once asked RMS about this and he mentioned there is no danger to using the Flash format, the same thing goes for PDF. The specification of it is open. What he laments is the lack of a good flash player and he discourages use of the Flash format till the day we have one.
