Hi, This is a misunderstanding. Flex Enterprise Services includes the new AMF gateway but I am sure the folks building OpenAMF or RubyAMF or etc etc will at some point implement the new version. We have nothing really against the open source projects. We are adding a lot of functionality, performance, manageability to Flex Enterprise Services and hope that will be valuable to people. But we aren't trying to "kill" anything. The Open Source community may well compete with Macromedia in some areas, but much more important we want a rich ecosystem with a lot of tools that solve a lot of different needs from a lot of different people and companies to make the Flash Platform successful for more people. I hope instead of us focusing on "killing" open source, or the open source community focusing on "killing" Macromedia, both can look at how we all can add value to to the community and leverage and extend each others work.
