Hi Harbs, but we can compile SWCs without SWF support, or are you referring to you/your company with "we"? Building all repos without the "option-with-swf" option does work.
And I doubt we would be allowed to simply upload Adobe stuff to any other server wirhout explicit conset from them. The license agreement you agreed to when downloading explicitly forbids that (at least it did, wenn we were working on the Flex Mavenizer and I doubt things changed) Chris -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Harbs <harbs.li...@gmail.com> Gesendet: Sonntag, 3.

We can’t make swf optional until we can compile SWCs without SWF support. We don’t hyet know what will be available from Adobe’s website. If the necessary pieces will no longer be available from Adobe, we can put it on some other server. A longer-term strategy of making SWF optional is something we can consider, but we are a long way from there currently, so the discussion is premature IMO.
