Hi all,

Possibly not the correct place to raise this but I was wondering if anyone knew what the plans for Potlatch 2 are?

Adobe Flash will be unsupported from 31 December 2020 (https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/end-of-life.html) . On, or around this date, Flash support will be completely removed from Firefox (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Plugins/Roadmap), Chrome (https://www.blog.google/products/chrome/saying-goodbye-flash-chrome/), and Edge (https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/4532571/microsoft-edge-turn-on-flash)  (where it is already turned off by default).

With the major browsers no longer supporting Flash after this date, and Potlatch currently relying on Flash, it seems like Potlatch will no longer be accessible?

Are there plans to transition from Flash, or to retire it completely from OSM? Where is best to raise this, if not here?

Cheers,

Nathan
