This announcement has come as a bit of a shock to me. Adobe only recently released their first stable Linux 64bit flash plugin months ago and now this announcement that the plugin is going to be discontinued. While I am pleased that Adobes partnership with Google has meant that a 64bit flash plugin will exist on Linux for Google Chrome users such as myself. This is news is very bad for the Firefox users and Linux Distributions like Ubuntu.
I hope that Adobe wakes and a smells the roses. The Flash plugin is a thing of the past with HTML5 video and JavaScript its replacement. Pulling stunts like this gives web designers even less reasons to use flash content.
I seriously knew about a lot of this, but never the less, I still considered it had been beneficial. Sweet post!
