Well only for air 2.0; which, is pretty useful for the desktop; yet, not
so useful for the browser, unless Adobe decides to give us access in the
player. I have all kinds of conspiracy theories to explain why they
won't; yet, I feel the most relevant is the developers ability to bypass
the need for their server for communications by rolling their own solution.
I am not sure if I am right or wrong; however, if I am right, Adobe has
very little need to worry, for:
-they are miles ahead of anyone trying to compete
-they have implemented a need to connect to the com server at least once
to go p2p
-why would a company invest in rolling their own if all the capabilities
they need are already developed in comparably affordable product?
-do they really need to care if someone makes their own server, when it
promotes the status of the flash player to indispensable and godlike in
the browser?
-The more capabilities the developer has, the more likely Adobe is to
sell a million or more copies of the flash professional IDE, and all the
tied in applications required in the workflow; even though I think the
ide should be able to do everything including bitmap editing and much
better project management with modern code completion that can be turned
off and on to save resources.
(OT... A better interface for project management, combined with better
syntax highlighting and modern code completion, would be required before
a lot of people I know would decide to buy the next version of the flash
IDE. For animators their are some that demand it do 3d too, and that
would be lovely; yet, I would settle for better line quality with my
wacom tablet for animation without having to decrease the space the
wacom controls and totally throwing off my muscle memory, plus the
ability to get the vector point data without a plugin)
