Hi Guys, I am still under f11 and I know that you are talking about f13 and f14 already, but I have problems with the flash for linux on my desktop (it is designed for f7 and obviously does not work properly under f11). Can you convince somehow Adobe to go open-source and to make some professional flash editor. Obviously the flash editor is not exactly do-it-yourself business as most of the other things under linux are.
Regards, Christo Petkov

If only it were so easy!

It would be awesome, however Adobe's business model is to sell their proprietary Flash Editor for tonnes of money.
For their flash plugin, you should check out Gnash. Gnash is a reverse-engineered flash player that works pretty good on older flash stuff. They are still catching up with Adobe's player and they probably will continue catching up for a while.

So if gnash is up to date, it will be able to run flash media perfectly?

Today's Gnash will not run SWF version 10 but will run SWF9 and below. Sadly the newest YouTube uses SWF 10, so Gnash will just show a black window. Remember to install Gstreamer's ffmpeg codecs and ffmpeg. That is what Gnash uses to decode the H.264 encoded video which is default in creating Flash videos.
I am personally really looking forward to SWF 10 support in Gnash, and I hope Adobe don't do much with Flash as I'd really like Gnash to catch up and replace the evil Flash Plugin for my usage (mostly YouTube and random other *cough* sites).
So if Gnash catches up with the newest version of flash, we can include in fedora as default, can't we?

I hope so. Sadly Fedora can't include ffmpeg codecs as default or in their repositories due to software patent laws in certain countries so YouTube would be inaccessible for everyday users who haven't installed those codecs from places such as RPMfusion.
