The components of BBB seem to all be open source, yes, but they use Adobe's Flash technology as the only component to access content offered by the product. So the users are forced to use Adobe's Flash viewer, which is closed source. Correct me if there is a free or even an open source version of a flash viewer - I don't think there is. Hopefully there will never be, as HTML5 is the uprising star in active web contents in my eyes. So, how can a server software be free if we need to use non-free client software to be able to use it?
