Strictly, speaking, it's an open source alternative to Silverlight,
not Flash.  There's a lot more Flash content out there than
Silverlight, so an open source alternative Flash player should play
the existing content, not ask you to rewrite it.  If you have to
rewrite it anyway, I wouldn't go for Silverlight.

There is a bunch of Flash "players" implemented in Javascript, but
they aren't mature yet:
