In that thread you mentioned below, I noticed it's Sho, from this list etc. that's describing Apollo. 
 
I'm *very* interested in Apollo.
 
I've done variations of a Visual C++ hosted ActiveX control for different needs, including one for GM (general motors); but there was always difficulting "getting inside" and had to result to a lot of crap code to do it.
 
I'd be very interested in testing Apollo; I was thinking of getting Zinc but would rather go to the source; especially if Flex AS3 is better supported.

Apollo sounds really interesting, anybody got any details on this project other than the topline stuff presented at Max2005?

By the way it seem that Macromedia is working on a official extended
projector to develop desktop applications code name: Apollo.

Have a look at this post on the alpha forums:
