Hey all, just wanted to post a brief note that the Flex tour has started, with the first event being Monday night in NY, the next one is tonight in Boston.
The meeting was well attended, and had 3 presenters Christophe and Allen from Adobe, and I. Christophe stated the meeting off with an apology about how badly things were handled, Alan Greenblatt talked about how Adobe plans on supporting existing enterprise customers, and talked a bit about the differences between adobe and apache. I then talked about the Apache process, how committers and non-committers can get involved. How spoon fits in. How releases are voted on, and in general the "apache way" of doing things. I made a point of giving urls to the apache flex project, to the mailing lists and to the jira instance. The biggest news from Adobe was that the next major release of Flash builder will not have Flex support. Otherwise, there was lost of people venting their anger, but not much news.
