-Apache Flex 4.8.0
+Apache Flex 4.9.0
=================
-This is a parity release with Adobe Flex 4.6.0.
+This is first release after the Adobe Flex 4.8.0 parity release.
The official Apache distribution is the source kit which can contain only
source.
Because of this, and various licensing constraints, there must be a few
differences.
====> Please see the README, especially the "Install Prerequisites" section.
