first off lets clear up the use of words here: argument: 1. A discussion in which disagreement is expressed; a debate. 2. A course of reasoning aimed at demonstrating truth or falsehood example: presented a careful argument for extraterrestrial life. 3. A summary or short statement of the plot or subject of a literary work.
i meant argument in the like number 2 from dictionary .com. and me not being a native english speaker having to point this out. tut tut tut. my argument (meaning 2) is that zorn is relatively stable. api's might have changed again between beta 1 and beta 2 and stuff will change to beta 3. this should not influence a project to much. futhermore, large companies are spending large amounts doing r&d on this, so if they are trying to build stuff with it why shouldn't you try to port an existing app that works. building a brand spanking new app that you have a tight deadline on for midsummer is crazy talk, but taking something which works (hence you have something you can fall back ojn if you go over schedule) and building that using flex2 can only benefit a company and an individual from a strategic position. enough of this argument (1,2 and or 3) now.
