If you base the entire thing on web services then one of us could build a
flex interface for it.

I still don't see the advantage of the html interface over a flex interface
other then for SEO.

I would hope that the target user would be savvy enough to download the
latest flash player.


Just a thought...

Robert,

It would be a model of the SourceForge approach of project posting and
hosting.

- Projects do not require approval
- Projects posted are free to use (variable licencing)
- Project Owner retains rights to project
- Catalog will be site-wide containing all components
- Purchase will not apply, since components will be free
- You can assign additional members to a project to allow
collaborative work on a project
- messageboards to discuss each individual project
- categorized projects



Kelly,

Regarding the development of this web application in Flex, I am
uncertain. I would like this project to be portable and open source,
usable for more than just this Flex component site. Basically it would
be an Open Source alternative project-post web application build on
PHP, MySQL, and HTML.

If I were creating something just for this flex component library, I
would definitely approach the solution by using Flex itself.


I hope this answers some questions.

Regards,
Graham Weldon
