Hello all, I'm a bit surprised that the Flash site is going away ... the MOS integration in OEM 12.1 is heavily dependent on the flash version. Not only for patching, but other features as well. Let's hope the product teams talked! It wouldn't be the first time that a new system breaks a lot of existing stuff (try to follow a 2 year old link to OTN!)
