I applaud any new Open Source initiatives, and I think you are right to use this forum to look for people willing to help you out. The Flex community would greatly benefit from an Open Source player able to playback SWF files.
I do however ask you to mind your language and temper the emotional content of your emails: you sound very angry and you curse a lot. That is not the way to communicate on this forum. Also, on a personal note: if you make statements like "HTML5 failed," I would ask you to provide references, or you risk being labelled a troll, I'm afraid.
