I can't believe this is happening, this is spinning out of control in a
really bad way.  Developers are beginning to buy the propaganda now.

There are no compelling technical reasons to switch platforms now.  I really
hope they don't stop developing swftools.

I don't understand why all the hits on Flash.  Weird.

The companies behind this madness realize that this could backfire really
badly on them.  Having a large market share does not give them the right to
dictate how we should develop applications.
