[Xerte] Re: Mobile flash news

[Julian Tenney]

We need to remember that for Xerte, essentially nothing has changed. Delivering content to desktops is still supported, Flash Player on the desktop is going nowhere and adobe are still actively developing the flash player for desktops. Nothing really changes.

The announcement does put the issue of how to deliver content to mobile devices in the spotlight (it already was), essentially it means we have to treat all devices as we treat iOS where there is, already, no browser based flash player to get content to, so nothing changes as we couldn't ignore iOS anyway.

We have a really powerful thing on our side: the separation of the data and the logic in toolkits. Already we are starting to use that data to drive the delivery of the content onto different platforms (mobile xerte) and plan to think about HTML5 as well.

An ad blocker written in HTML 5, or an ad blocker to block adverts for HTML5? ;-)
