Thanks for the info, i'll be sure to check it out when the repository is set out.
I've not looked into it myself a great deal yet, but have started to play a little bit with a regex parser.
Like i say, it's just dabbling at the moment, so don't have any benchmarks or anything, but i'll be sure to distribute what ever i come up with for you all to review.

Matt,
I believe I’m still waiting on osflash for the code repository. I put it on the project signup list, but if there’s anything else I need to do someone let me know (I understand it can take a while for everything to get setup). I’ll be sure to add you to the “committers” list so that you can get in on the mailing list and code repository. I’m also planning to put together a page under my fusiox.com domain to hold the project’s path, progress and documentation. I’m not likely to spend much time on this specific project until next month, but the code I have so far is freely available for use and modification. When we get a single code base going we’ll decide our path and take a look at integrating our work one at a time. My initial goals so far are outlined below.
- Compare CSS inheritance/weighting/specificity behavior against w3c spec and consider best implementation. (I think it’s critical to address this up front)
- Fix any remaining case sensitivity issues (I haven’t checked for improvements or alternatives in final release yet). If nothing else, I can write up a custom CSS text parser.
- Resolve remaining issues in shorthand implementation (possibly recursive shorthand?)
- Add features for styling states (similar to a:hover, but hopefully includes custom flex states)
- ??? Maybe add support for flex specific style items (using dynamic MXML?)
- ??? You tell me.

Hey guys,
Is there any news on an osflash project for this? as it is something i
could really use.
I'm new to flex, but have been using flash and actionscript since
flash 4, so if i can offer any assistance i'd be more than happy.
Matt
