ATTENTION DESIGNERS: Convert Flash to HTML5 - Adobe Wallaby

[eroticsexxx]

"Wallaby" is the codename for an experimental technology that converts the artwork and animation contained in Adobe® Flash® Professional (FLA) files into HTML. This allows you to reuse and extend the reach of your content to devices that do not support the Flash runtimes. Once these files are converted to HTML, you can edit them with an HTML editing tool, such as Adobe Dreamweaver®, or by hand if desired. You can view the output in one of the supported browsers or on an iOS device.

Sounds cool, but as a flash programmer I can already export all the art work
from flash as images and even AVI movies. I just "click a button" in CS4/CS5.
If I export the animation as a movie then I just convert and embed the movie.

This thing does not support action script versions 1,2 or 3.
Which means none of my complex animations will ever work.

I would use action script for any interactive functions in my flash so this seems
to imply that I cannot use this on anything interactive without doing
it in Javascript.

This thing is producing nothing but a animated GIF like result.
I mean, just make an animated GIF.

This HTML5 thing is failing too hard.
This is just more fail.

In other words it doesn't support anything that I ever needed in flash.
