If I recall correctly, this has been asked and shot down before.
cAos/CentOS is about Open Source which flash is not. There was talk
that java might become open source, but that has not happened.
For CentOS-2, Sun distribute a .rpm which works fine. Does it not work
for CentOS-3 & cAos?
I have a small rpm with 1 symlink which enables the java plugin for
mozilla (requires j2sdk & mozilla).
I also have the flash plugin packaged but do not distribute it. If
someone wanted, they could create a script/srpm which could obtain the
download from macromedia and package it up.
