Otherwise, you could have 2 versions of your movie (one for 6/7/8, and one for 8.5 (aka 9)), and use JS to load the appropriate one.

That'd be kinda harsh - wouldn't it? I understand the need to offer
new functionality and have it only work in the new player, but what
about backwards compatibility? Can't they release the old
framework.swc stuff and have a switch on the compiler to get an older
version?
I guess I'm kinda concerned about Linux support... the player seems to
take forever to come out for Linux compared to the other platforms.
Maybe I should be asking if anyone knows when the Linux 8.5/9 flash
player will be released?
