Yeah, but it's not too professional-looking to have to give a list of "abandoned" websites that happen to host the plugin and hope that joe public will trust that any software thus downloaded isn't riddled with virii and worms. who's going to guarantee that it isn't? You?
I love civil disobedience as much as the next man, but seriously, i don't think this is much of an option. I'd love someone from Adobe to post their current thinking to this list...their position as it stands is pretty much untenable, i'd have thought, but the longer the silence the more it looks to me like they might try and tough it out. If someone from Adobe is looking here, consider this. If SVG developers feel shafted by you, how likely are they to take up Flex? I wouldn't, solely on principle.
