I can't answer the licensing questions, but I would
question what the future of this app is. I know this is hard without fully
knowing what Enterprise Services 2 have to offer, but based on what you know,
could you post-pone the project until Flex Builder 2 comes out? The price
difference could be key in some situations.. that is, unless you really see a
need for Enterprise Services (which again is tough without having full
disclosure on their features).

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] My Flex Site Mockup -
considerations? So, if I
had my client buy one license of Flex, they could do that, and not have to
install it and I could send them my .swf files I create with my license, and
all is honky dory? So, no technical issues just license agreement
issues, correct? Assuming the licensing is worked out, its then just a
matter of moving the resulting .swf files, right? Jason Merrill

icfconsulting.com From: Technically, you can
deploy SWFs created with 1.5 on a server that is not running the Flex server.
>From a licensing standpoint, however, the client would have to buy a license to
Flex for each CPU you deploy to. As you know, that is changing in Flex 2, but
it's not retroactive. Phil

Macromedia From: Im a
Flash IDE guy and have only produced simple apps with the Flexbuilder 2 Alpha
which use XML. Anyhoo, I have 2 questions. I have created a site
mockup of a Flex app in Photoshop for one of my clients. See it
here: http://cmt.icfconsulting.com/temp/navyHRPortal_2.jpg Question
1: The client can only run Flash player 7, so knowing that and what I have
mocked up, would you look at the following screenshot and tell me if everthing I
am proposing in this graphic is possible in Flex 1.5 (obviously assuming we will
have easy access to the data etc.) including embedding the graphics and fonts
in the tabs. I have played with Flexbuilder 2 and the 8.5 player, but not Flex
1.5. Question
2: I probably already know the answer, but can you run Flex 1.5 on a
server in one place (say here, on the development side), produce the necessary
.swfs, and then take the .swfs to another server that does not have the Flex
server to deploy the app? Or are the .swfs strictly built at
runtime? Or are there legal considerations for that? This isnt a
requirement, but it would be nice to only have to buy Flex 1.5 server here, and
give our clients the .swfs instead of telling them they need to also buy the
Flex server to run this. I am guessing though, that the Flex server and
the Flex app have to be on the same machine. Right? If so, I guess what
are my options for something *kinda* like this realistically the
Flash IDE or Thanks, Jason Merrill
