Hi all,

sorry to jump in late here. I'm the original founder and one of the main
authors of AS3Commons and wanted to give some feedback on the things I read
here:

- renaming: I don't have an issue with this but not sure what the gain is
here, apart from a more consistent and integrated feel with the SDK (which
could be the most important argument). Keep in mind that most of the
libraries are not Flex libraries, but rather ActionScript 3 libraries,
hence the name of the project. Flex related code is in separate libs (Async
and Async-Flex) for instance.

- FZip was indeed donated by Claus Wahlers to AS3Commons.

- The Logging library has support for many other logging libraries and
targets, hence the many (optional) dependencies.

- AS3Commons grew out of Spring ActionScript (SAS). This means that SAS has
a lot of dependencies on AS3Commons. Perhaps that is something to take into
account if you are thinking about renaming or refactoring the packages.

- the domain name as3commons.org (and springactionscript.org) is about to
expire and I'll extend it. There is currently nothing behind these domains.
I don't have the time to put up nor maintain a site here. Any suggestions
what we could do here?

regards,
Christophe
