Hi all,
As you can see from the attached message, there is a lot of interest
from Macromedia (which was just merged with Adobe) in the actionscript
plugin. So I have a couple of questions for you:
- what is the projected release timeframe for 1.0.3?
- would it be OK if Allurent or Adobe were to check out, build and make
available an interim snapshot distribution so that developers can get
started even before 1.0.3? Or would it be better to take a 1.0.2
distribution and just add the plugin-actionscript JAR to it, to ensure
that no other plugins are broken?
Thanks...
...joe

Hi Joe,
I am the Adobe Labs Product Manager and I came across your e-mail within
the Flex 2 alpha newsgroup. People on the Flex product team and my
peers on the Developer Relations team were so impressed with your plugin
that we would like to add it to the Labs Showcase Gallery within the
Labs Wiki.

Do you happen to have a URL that we can link to that provides the
download/build information that you listed in your e-mail?
