Adobe to port AIR to Linux

unityofsaints writes: Up until now, Adobe hasn't done much in terms of porting its applications to Linux, as its only product to have recieved any kind of Linux implementation is flash. This may all be about to change because the company has announced a Linux port of its web application development software "AIR". Unfortunately no definite release date is mentioned, with the interviewed Adobe CTO, Kevin Lynch, mentioning a vague "later this year".
