Personally, I have not verified any fixes.  Adobe did put me on the
lcds beta program but I have been too busy pressed up against my own
deadlines and work-rounds for this exact problem to be able to reverse
back to Feb and take another look.

If anyone does find out I would love to hear.  I have had to write a
lot of code to get round this and if you look at my other post in a
similar domain it has not been altogether successful.

This seocnd issue is causing me a great deal of trouble to the point
where, for a second time, I am questioning both the FDS architecture,
costs and my involvement with it.  

My horrible reality is that I can still not get a reliable graph of
parent-child relationships to work and maintain itself during what I
consider to a be pretty standard update cycle.  This is very
regrettable and does not reflect well, in my opinion.

I don't like shouting "bug" or bad-mouthing flex because I think the
framework in general is really great and is a breakthrough and I
genuinely am a great fan, but I am at the point of chucking it out
completely because I just can't get it stable and reliable without
writing a lot of BS code to plug leaks; I can do that in a variety of
other languages and guarantee myself success.  

Furthermore it is very difficult to get any real help and I feel
(rightly or wrongly) at the bleeding edge and somewhat alone, not to
mention that skilled resources are like hen's teeth.  I am at the
mercy of the good graces of the contributors from Adobe, and others,
to this messageboard, and to be frank that is not a comfortable place
to be.

In the back of my mind I have the worry that it is something stupid I
have done but I have no idea how I find out if that is true or not. 
Bottom line is that my project is stalled behind a couple of pretty
serious problems which appear on the surface to be Adobe issues.  I
currently have no path to getting them addressed.

I am very interested to hear your experiences and will very gladly
share any knowledge I have.  My aim is general uptake of flex and
fds/lcds and I am evangelising exactly that in my community.  If there
is any way I can help on the off-chance that I may have encountered
issues you are wrestling with, please get in touch.  I am happy to
take messages off-list.
