I wonder what prompted Steve to speak out about it now after years of pretending nothing was going on?
I wouldn’t say no to an open alternative to Flash! Sure, HTML5 is nice but I don’t see myself hardcoding design or full animations by hand. That’s just plain silly. People who can do that have beards and questionable hygiene. I need better designtools, timelines, and what have you.
