About time. The dependence on flash and other patented technology should end.

Fantastic. The internet must go towards a more open-source environment if it truly wants to progress.

The open-source software groups may feel it's a victory in their favor, but have they forgotten that Google is in itself a corporation. Hello, monopoly?

I don't really care. If it works and I get to see what I want to see, then it doesn't really matter to me.

Free Software Foundation sees an ally in Google, and enjoins them in their quest to free the internet from patented and proprietary technology.
