Prism, a new experiment from Mozilla Labs, lets users split web applications out of the browser

Well its was more the use of words that offended me. There is something "better" in that mozilla is a non profit committed (and with a track record) of delivering free (in every sense) software. They would only go beyond a standard when they really really really had to (and only until standards caught up).

I do respect adobes chops in the user interface space though, I just think their attitudes to open source (rather, their current leaderships attitudes) are a little pre-historic.
