"If Ubuntu can't ship a fix, then ship a workaround, for heaven's sake. If flashplayer is unmaintained, it's time to throw it out and go with one of the clones, even if they're not perfect. There *will* be bad security holes discovered even in 11.2 at some point in the not too far future, you can bet on that."

I would rather not because the 'clones' (lightspark and gnash if that is what you mean) doesn't work almost 100% of the time. It is going to give Ubuntu a really bad reputation if it is shipped with these. Like I said, you don't need flash or any of its 'clones' for Youtube ( and the clones don't even work 99.99% of the time, check them out yourself) , and you can still use flash for everything else where it is needed. With the 'clones' you have near zero access to all flash contents, peroid (except for the demos they put out, of course)
