Convert Flash to HTML5

"Swiffy currently supports a subset of SWF 8 and ActionScript 2.0,"<p>These are years out of date. It would be a lot more interesting if it could support modern versions (ActionScript 3 / FlashPlayer 9/10/10.1/10.2).

Can anyone report on how long this converter takes to run?<p>How feasible would it be for a Chrome extension where Flash elements in wegpages are seamlessly converted and displayed as HTML5 objects?

I don't know if that's a smart move from Google.<p>It would be a good thing for Google to have users frustrated with Flash websites that don't work in iOS. Now they are helping Apple giving users a great experience on iOS?

It'll be interesting to see how well the various Flash-&#62;HTML 5 convertors will complete the job. I'm a little skeptical that it'll be much more like scaffolding than a full-on conversion but I haven't personally tried it yet. I have, however, been working with Flex for the past couple of years and I have come to the conclusion that web applications shouldn't be developed using it given the evolution of standardized HTML and Javascript.

At this point, I still think Adobe's Wallaby project has more potential.
