Not too many years ago, but I was thinking the 17 years had passed (I believe
it's 17).
Now, if that's the case, what in the world is wrong with Adobe?
They have the most popular rich media format in the world and they appear to be
resting on their loins (or the loins if some inside investors) in implementing
a low color space animation format.
If they are sincere and are looking to improve this, I'm happy. If I find out
something else is at work, then the entropy of power will befall them as it
does every corporation that has people getting their hands in a pure noble
effort, and spoiling it to make a buck (anyone knows how things really work
knows this possibility is very real).
Please Respond Adobe and clear the air on this.
If anybody else knows how PaperVision3D and others are implementing custom
plug-ins for Adobe Flash CS3 please post.

patents for GIF ran out a few years ago.
And does anybody support mpng?

I fully realize there may be patent issues with Adobe using animated GIF.
However, what about Animated PNG?
I've considered this subject for some time, and I am concerned that Adobe is
withholding a great potential improvement in Flash to benefit FLV.
I maybe completely wrong -- but that is why I'm posing the question.
Lossless reduced color spaces have a great potential benefit to the web.
It would be Adobe's free choice whether to include it or not -- but then again,
we are free to dump any platform that is overly zealous when it comes to the
economics of supply.
