i didnt say there _weren't_ other reasons, i didn't say i wouldn't like to see one, and i didn't say there was anything wrong with dogmatism..
all i said was that _if_ the only reason you're writing it is so that it will be free, realize that you aren't doing anything helpful, merely being dogmatic.
it works fine for me, so i have no need to write one. if im on bsd, i use lynx and could give a shit about flash, and when im on windows, it works great in mozilla.
The file format is open; You do not have to use a proprietary viewer, but if you want to rewrite one _solely_ for the purpose of it being free, that is the essence of dogmatism..
it says "You may reproduce and distribute, in executable form only, programs which you create..." it does not say "You may only reproduce and distribute programs which you create in executable form."
This is explicitly giving a right, not taking one away. You'd think a slew of people who (generally speaking) make their living off absolutely precise syntax might know how to diagram a sentence..
"support 3D audio or EAX, since Aureal thinks, that's up to Creative, this is a very important step.." aureal _is_ working on a3d under linux. eax is not environmental audio. sorry folks.
