Hi, Thanks for the feedback glad to see someone is paying attention :-) I'll leave it up to other people to decide if these changes require another release candidate or not, or can wait until the next release.

Do we know that the packing scripts work for FlashDevelop? I have no experience with FlashDevelop, but happy to put it in there if we know it works correctly. > B. The statements concerning OM's installer are redundant after so > many cut-n-pastes. The marketing person should rewrite sections "Getting > the Convenience" and "Getting the Latest". As an Apache release we must release the source code and give instructions on how to build it from scratch. Not everyone will want to do that that why we made the installer. Those section may need a minor edit but they basically need to stay as they are. > C. "Flex would like to see. support from community" s/b "support > from the community." Fixed. > D. Install prerequisites, para 7"" "Not that if you change" s/b "Note > that if you change." Fixed. > E. Version Support gives an example of how to compile against "the > latest version", but uses > an example left over from 11.5 -- change it to say 11.8. Done. > F.

Is that really a step that > one would still take when it is so > much more easily accomplished with OM's installer? Yes it's required due to the way Apache releases software. However not many people are going to take that route when you have the installer. > G. Thanks for using Apache Flex. Enjoy! would be better expressed as: > The team that has produced > this release hopes you will enjoy using it for your application > requirements. I quite like what there - any other opinions on this? > A. Version Control. " build instructions, in the included" s/b > "build instructions are included in the > README file." Done. > 03. ASDocs. Houston, we have a problem. These components are in the experimental swc and as such may be missing full tests and documentation. Over time it's hoped that people will contribute what's missing and they be moved into one of the other swf packages. Thanks, Justin
