Target Audience
Flash and web developers who want to test their content with Shumway and a general audience of folks who are interested in a Flash Player Alternative and want to provide feedback
Landing Criteria

  • Create developer and user friendly look and feel bug 905705 - WebDev for Areweflashyet.com
  • Criteria includes:
    • Confidence that we render enough content
    • Confidence that if we are unable to render content, we fail gracefully and give the user the ability to provide feedback (akin to submitting a crash log?)
    • Acceptable CPU usage
    • Acceptable Memory Usage

Product Roadmap & User Stories

  • Coming Soon
  • As a Metro Firefox user, I experience rich ads so that I don't have to see a bunch of empty boxes as I surf the Web without Adobe Flash player.
  • As a Firefox user, I have a more stable browsing experience because Firefox natively renders Flash ads, increasing my user satisfaction, usage, and likelihood to recommend.
  • As a Firefox user, I have a more responsive browsing experience because Flash ads in background tabs are throttled, increasing my user satisfaction, usage, and likelihood to recommend.
  • As a Firefox user, I can opt in to Firefox native Flash support so that I can help Mozilla test the feature.
  • As a Firefox user, I have a mechanism to revert to the Adobe Flash player for specific content blocks, so I am not broken in cases where Firefox's native rendering is insufficient.
