sorry for void, here we go:

The upcoming release of flash player 10.1 supports multicast video
streaming over RTMFP.
In fact, RTMFP is builtinto flash player since version 10, but just the
latest release of the flash-media-server has implementd serverside
support ( i am not aware of a free software project ).

Adobe hosts a public RTMFP server for testing, but i don't know how
reliable this is, therefore i wouldn't count it as a real world
opportunity.

Anyway, i guess there will be free software implementations, sooner or
later, whether adobe opens the protocol or not (same story as with RTMP,
how boring!),
Maybe his should get recognized by jingle-XEP architects/writers.
