in relation to this topic, probably mx:module will help a lot once available. although it has already been posted that the 2.01 update will be available early next year, I cnt wait to get my hands on it. Is there any chance of getting a prerelease copy of 2.01 at this time? we are currently working on a large web ap similar to google analytics. This is a combination of ajax and flex; where the number of instances of the flex swf's are to be determined by the user at runtime. I understand that RSL's will probably be part of the option now. But looking at roger's blog, going Modular will surely cut the file size heavily. It would ba a waste of time to reimplement everything once the mx:module support is out. Hence, guys, is there any way I can get hold of a prerelease? Although I understand it may be incomplete, at least we wouldnt have to worry about changing the entire architecture once 2.01 is out. Thnx in advance.
