The work that this guy did is amazing, no doubt. But the player supports SWF v1. The current version is 10!
Gnash already supports v7 and some features of v8/9 and is still not very usable.
Doing simple animations is one thing. Do you really expect to have a decent AS3 interpreter running in javascript? No question about video of course.
On the other hand this player could have some niche applications. If someone knows flash, needs some simple animations without violating standards and without messing with JS/SVG directly, they could use this. But as a general-purpose flash player? I don't think so.
