Gee. So much for time estimation in open source projects. :) Anyway, just wanted to give you guys a heads-up that the current version of the ActionScript 3.0 compiler (as3compile), (which is part of the development snapshot at http://www.swftools.org/download.html) is approaching a stable state, and will be included in the next official release. It's a raw compiler (no embedding stuff yet- I plan to integrate support for fonts and bitmaps though), and it now can compile most of all the ActionScript programs I came across so far, except any that use inline XML or namespaces. (I'm working on the latter right now) Try it out and let me know what you think!
