Has anyone reviewed the specifics of this initiative? Have the specs been released in a manner that can be safely used by FOSS alternatives to Adobe Flash, such as Gnash? A few months ago, Microsoft released a heap of documentation on specs and formats. Reading the fine print revealed that there were a number of clauses which prevented FOSS projects from using them, including a restriction to non-commercial efforts. -- "The less I have to do with customers, the better. I've always felt that the biggest contribution the commercial vendors do is exactly the fact that they end up being the interface between customers and developers, and that they also thus end up being the balance between purely technical issues and the purely marketing thing. And open source keeps them (and the developers, for that matter) honest." - Linus Torvalds, 21 December 2004
