yes, it does require flash. content-wise, the lock into proprietary
software also results in adding adverts on the video stream (sometimes
about direct competitors, which in case of the PP might be other
parties...)
Please don't stream my talk that way.
If you want to stream it, please use a method that lets users
watch without running nonfree software.
