Changing the policy of a large corporation is like turning a tanker ship at sea. To avoid upsetting the balance, one has to go verrrry slowly.

This was a load and clear signal that Youtube knows full well that the time of HTML5 is coming soon.

Or maybe a loud and clear signal for people to stop assuming they're doing it just because of their beta HTML player.

While I'm excited about HTML5 coming sooner rather than later this article has set me back in confidence about how soon that might be. Maybe I was optimistic but it sounds like there's a lot to be done before YouTube would set about making a full switch to those that support <video>.
