When the issue came up on foundation-l a little
while back, I stated
that I thought a flash file that used only the publicly documented
subset of flash (or at least works in Gnash) and doesn't use the
patented-encumbered codecs would be okay with the board's proposed
file format policy.
I'm not sure I understand what you're saying - are you saying that if
we shipped open Flash code to decode Vorbis that doesn't work on open
clients, that would be objectionable?
No. We're in agreement. For the reasons you stated.
I'll forward you the longer off-list reply I wrote to David.
