  1. (planet.mozilla.org had a link to http://pfs2.ozten.com/demo.html but I don’t know who wrote it. If it wasn’t you, can you forward this?)

    For my 64-bit Firefox 3.7a1pre nightly on Kubuntu http://pfs2.ozten.com/demo.html says
    “Outdated
    Shockwave Flash 10.0 r32″
    , but http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ says “You have version 10,0,32,18 installed” and lists this as the latest version available for Linux.

    BTW, that Adobe page (which you get to from “About Adobe Flash Player” in the player’s context menu and is one of the most popular pages on the web) should warn if you don’t have the latest version. It makes the user compare two numbers instead of doing it for them. Try giving your code to Adobe…

  2. The database that is backing up that demo is all funny data.

    We didn’t have real data yet, and for many plugins we still don’t. It was the first time we got the frontend and backend code talking to each other…

    skierpage, thanks for trying it out and we have much better data (and a real stage env) so we should have something much more realistic by EOD tomorrow.
