To me, the resignation was linked to thinking of the consequences. At first the (fictional) manager just did what he was told, then quickly thought of it, and instead of fighting it, put a stop on it. Moral grounds, economic grounds (the fe

Now it is time that Google do the right thing and drop Flash, as well as hold their over a year-old promise to drop H264 in Chrome. Not holding my breath though.
