Adobe Opens Up Flash Specifications (http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=NjQ1Mg)
Adobe ha comunicato oggi che rilascierà le specifiche dei formati SWF and FLV/F4V e che saranno liberamente utilizzabili. Il Flash Player ufficiale rimarrà comunque closed source.
La divulgazione di queste specifiche aiutera sicuramente lo sviluppo dei progetti open source come Gnash.
SAN JOSE, Calif. — May 1, 2008 —
Adobe Systems Incorporated today announced the Open Screen Project. [...]
The Open Screen Project is working to enable a consistent runtime environment -- taking advantage of Adobe® Flash® Player and, in the future, Adobe AIR™ -- that will remove barriers for developers and designers as they publish content and applications across desktops and devices, including phones, mobile Internet devices (MIDs), and set top boxes. The Open Screen Project will address potential technology fragmentation by enabling the runtime technology to be updated seamlessly over the air on mobile devices. The consistent runtime environment is intended to provide optimal performance across a variety of operating systems and devices, and ultimately provide the best experience to consumers.
To support this mission, and as part of Adobe’s ongoing commitment to enable Web innovation, Adobe will continue to open access to Adobe Flash technology, accelerating the deployment of content and rich Internet applications (RIAs). This work will include:
- Removing restrictions on use of the SWF and FLV/F4V specifications
- Publishing the device porting layer APIs for Adobe Flash Player
- Publishing the Adobe Flash® Cast™ protocol and the AMF protocol for robust data services
- Removing licensing fees - making next major releases of Adobe Flash Player and Adobe AIR for devices free
