I wonder what their stance is when it comes to SWF->XAML. An OS project that
makes XAML files from SWFs could be a very real threat in a few years' time.

Don't they have to come down hard on anything that converts SWF to any open
format? As long as that exists, someone else can always take the output and
create a player without risk. For browser playback, XAML is probably their
only worry, but what a worry that is... With that on the horizon I can
imagine that they'll soon be a whole lot more aggressive in protecting the
player.

I also wonder how the legal side of things work for individuals outside the
US ;)
