Okay- Adobe has a great chance to show the world how solid Flash Player and AIR engineering can be. Like any development or engineering team, they have limited resources and need help from the outside world to make these the best releases ever. Tired of “buggy” Flash and “lazy” engineers ruining your browsing experience?** Here are some things you can do to actually contribute instead of flaming Adobe:
- Download and install Flash Player 10.1 Beta 2 and AIR 2.0 Beta 2
- Test the new beta runtimes with your content and applications.
- Log bugs at bugs.adobe.com. Engineering teams use your bug reports to reproduce errors and improve the runtime quality.
- Tweet: “Improve Flash 10.1 & AIR 2.0 via Beta 2 http://bit.ly/cty7Nm READ & RT #Flash #AIR #QUALITY”
If you’re a developer, test your current applications. If you are a user, give the runtimes a spin and see if anything goes bad. We all have a great opportunity to contribute to the continued success of these two runtimes- let’s all put in some effort and make a difference!

** I do not believe that Flash Player is buggy or that Adobe engineers are at all lazy.
Thank you so much, Great information…
