Apart of what Open Source lovers saying about flash I have to strongly disagree with this statement.

I cannot even imagine situation when flash player will be released to the 3th party. But this is the most obvious scenario.

We will get 20 different versions each will get different features. The biggest advantage of plash player (cross platform compatibility) will be destroyed. Regarding to the current tech wars one of the company called APPLE will create their own Flash player and will tell you this is the best solution ever because its APPLE will destroy the 3th parties and we all end up in Orwell tech world. Is that what we wont?

When you guys understand that this is only way and Adobe weapon in their hands? And at present I'm really glad they doing this way. maybe some day they will remove license restriction. But if that will happen I will start looking for another job. That will be true flash killer or suicide actually.
