Any idea why Shumway was graveyarded?

  Pretty much just too much work and ever-decreasing interest with the foreseeable death of Flash. This would have probably needed a dedicated team untangling and implementing the Flash-specification over many months to get it done before most webpages had already killed off their Flash-content...

  I tried Shumway on a couple of sites with no luck. The browser detection code bumped me immediately to the 'Download Flash' website. So if websites aren't recognising Shumway even as an option, but looking explicitly for the flash plugin, what chance does it have for market penetration? (And yes, I filed a bug on said website's issue tracker)
