I downloaded the source kit and read the README. The README looks like it is a Release Guide not a README. I expected to see a brief description of what the source was for and instructions for how to build it. I have an AIR_HOME environment variable. I ran ant -DFLEX_HOME=/Users/cframpto/dev/4.8.0 and the compile target barfed. It is looking for something in the common directory which of course doesn't exist. get-as3commons.swc: [mkdir] Created dir: /Users/cframpto/Downloads/apache-flex-sdk-installer-1.0.0-incubating-src/li bs [get] Getting: http://projects.yoolab.org/maven/content/repositories/releases/org/as3commo ns/as3commons-zip/1.0.0-alpha.1/as3commons-zip-1.0.0-alpha.1.swc [get] To: /Users/cframpto/Downloads/apache-flex-sdk-installer-1.0.0-incubating-src/li bs/as3commons-zip-1.0.0-alpha.1.swc [get] .....
