I believe they've since changed this -- so technically, Gnash is allowed to 
simply read the specs.

As for "fraction of platforms":

Or you talk to Adobe.

Consider the Wii, for instance. That's a PowerPC CPU, and it's not any OS I 
know of, yet the Wii Browser (Opera) does have Flash.

Besides which, I'm not trying to convince anyone that Flash is a good target 
-- only that it is a good way to get 99% of desktop browsers to support 
something that you'd otherwise do in a standard way. If I "put some chips 
together", for instance, I'd think I could get a browser that supports 
<video>, and fallback to Flash on IE.

With the caveat that it has to be installed. For the platforms Flash supports 
(which admittedly isn't all of them), it's already installed. With Java, if 
it's there, it's probably an older version.
