I, for one, welcome our new Tamarin overlords

Adobe jumped the Opensource bandwagon by releasing source code from the latest ActionScript Virtual Machine (AVM2) to the Mozilla Foundation for inclusion in upcoming versions of its products.

Implications:

SVG is dead, long live Tamarin
Expect some fantastically rich web-applications in a couple years, that will blow away gmail and the likes
Who'll need a host OS anymore? Will this be Web3.0?

I, for one, do welcome our new Tamarin overlords.

Adobe and Mozilla together going to one scripting engine that is better than what they each have now, makes it easier to re-use scripting code. So you can use your script from a Flash project in HTML and SVG projects, or the other way around and learn more about open standards along the way.

I love Tamarin, it's good for SVG.
