This post has not gone unnoticed but you’re
asking for our plans slightly before we have them all down in a form we can
talk about J We’re going to try to put together something to explain our
thinking over the next day or two and will post back. A number of us have
spent many weeks/months trying to work on preparing materials (not just the doc/reference)
and thinking of programs that will help developers of apps, components, and
what have you. Stay tuned, Matt From: Jesse, On 5/1/06, JesterXL

framework, and it makes sense to me... most of it. I never cared for the
DataSet and binding classes, but everything else has allowed me to create
applications I couldn't have without knowlege of using them and the rest of the
framework. Macromedia made a strong effort to listen to the community's
feedback upon it's release, and eventually documented it. Too little too
late for some of us, but at least they did what they said they were going to
do. Upon the release of Flex 1, they had apparently learned from that
mistake because the Flex 1 documentation for components was top notch compared
to Ellipsis (Flash 7.2). This put up or shutup attitude was nice to see;
for everyone who asked a question that was directly answerable from the docs,
people on the Flexcoders list pointed them to RTFM manual, and it
was good to see they had faith in what they produced. Upon reading
the documentation for Beta 2, and seeing Sho's blog post on the revamp for Beta
3, I think Adobe is continuing that quality in documentation. Granted, documenting the API for a List component and
documenting not only how to USE that List component, but USING that List
component with OTHERS are 3 totally different things. I think we are
getting the latter after reading pages about utilizing item renderers, and
UIComponent API changes. Granted, you can't judge it yet since it's not
done, nor is the source code publicly released in this build to compare and contrast. While I personally think it's up to the developer to invest
their own personal time to learn the framework on their own, I would still
prefer docs written that help get us up to speed as soon as possible to provide
a better cost to time invested ratio, ecspecially since the scope of this
component framework is much larger than v1 & v2 combined. ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael Schmalle Sent: Monday, May 01,
