wow, you read a *lot* into that post- too much, as usual! =A0i'=

You do realize that you're the last person on the Internet that doesn't consider Flash on mobile abandoned don't you?

=20 No, I think it's retarded to think something is not abandoned when Adobe said they won't support any new browsers, chipsets, operating system version, or "configurations".

that is one whack definition of abandoned software- lack of *future* suppor= t doesn't mean it's abandoned to you? holy crap, everything is abandoned a= lready!

So by "actively supported" does that mean when it breaks in the next version of Android that Adobe will fix it? No, not according to the official announcement.

lack of *future* support doesn't mean it's abandoned now.

So by "actively supported" does that mean when it breaks in a new browser that Adobe will fix it? Nope, not according to Adobe.

lack of *future* support doesn't mean it's abandoned now.

You actually consider that "supported" --- Weak

it might be analogy time- we can probably agree that the iphone 3gs is not = abandoned, right? we can also guess that the iphone 3gs probably won't get= the next major release of ios, right? but we can also assume that there w= ill be fixes to the current version that apply to it. so what makes it not= abandoned, even though we know it won't be getting major updates in the fu= ture? riiight, the *current* updates.
