Is anyone still developing flash for linux?

I love how Flash does lines and how you can bend them without issues (Inkscape has bend issues if you ask me.)

http://sourceforge.net/projects/f4l/?showfeed=project_info

Apparently no one has committed for quite some time. But has someone taken up this project for themselves?

I wonder what it would take to restart it?

Otherwise, Linux users may only be able to develop Silverlight (via Moonlight for Monodevelop)?!!

Probably would need to reverse engineer it through clean room reverse engineering (like ReactOS.)

Swish MAX (a flash editor) runs on perfectly on Wine, they have freeware and paid versions.

I someone resurrect F4L and gain a place in hall of fame:)

F4L is a FOSS alternative to flash, unlike Swish MAX. I'd rather see F4L completed.
