On encouraging Macromedia & others to supply repos for Fedora

When I installed the flash-plugin during FC5 first days out of the
womb it was a one shot deal.  I used the Macromedia repo that Warren
Togami announced <http://lwn.net/Articles/176376/> and was
automatically offered all security updates that followed.  Will Fedora
re-announce that deal with FC6, and are there any other repo deals in
the making with other ISVs?  Google, Skype, and Sun Microsystems would
be good candidates.  I wouldn't mind being offered Google Earth and
Picasa updates as they come about.
