Dave, I'm really growing weary of this thread, I see we're not on the same side of the issue, and that isn't going to change, but I do have to respond to one last thing you said:
>> So I'm at least aware of security issues within the enterprise. None of these things should be that big of a hurdle for you. Well, "should" is different than "is". I think you are missing that point - the "what you think the situation SHOULD be", vs. the reality of our security measures. I am not the one who decides if open source software is considered a higher security risk (though I still agree that it is, based on the points I raised, but I also love the stuff, I use FlashDevelop daily for example). So reality is, it is perceived as a higher security risk in our enterprise, and I cannot change that fact. I have other issues with open source like the article mentioned, like poor customer support and service plans, but that is another issue altogether and unrelated to this discussion. Also, I used to work in DC for a government contractor too, 5 years, worked with many agencies, and I am familiar with how they work. This is my last post on the subject, thanks, Jason Merrill Bank of America Global Learning Shared Services Solutions Development Monthly meetings on the Adobe Flash platform for rich media experiences - join the Bank of America Flash Platform Community _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
