I have a flex position open in Dallas. Perm or contract.

Does anyone know of anyone?  How long has this technology been out for?
Tough to find...

Thank you,

I also am currently working on a "content-management-like" application
using ColdFusion and DHTML and have been looking into moving some/all
pieces of it to Flex.  

Regarding the lack of people with Flex experience, I just wanted to
throw out there that I have fairly strong ActionScript skills and would
be interested in opportunities to assist with development and/or
maintenance of CF/Flex projects if anyone has a need.

Galen,

Funny you should bring this topic up.  We are in the final stages of
moving a "content-management-like" application to Flex as well.  Here
are some issues to consider before writing the entire application in
Flex:

- Flash player only supports very basic html formatting (No tables/css
etc....).  This was a major issue for us since our content contained
html table formatted text.
- Flash Rich Text Editor isn't very 'Rich'.  Only very simple formatting
is available.  We had to use a pop up with FckEditor to get the
functionality we needed.
- Report formatting is difficult.  Simple things like looping over
record sets and performing basic report formatting was challenging.  We
ended up doing pop ups in CF/html for our reports.
- Development proved to be very slow and tedious when compared to
CF/html development.  Partly due to lack of expertise and being a new
technology that hasn't had years of evolution.
- Lack of people in the area that know Flex.  It is difficult to find
people

with Flex experience to develop/maintain a Flex application.

Flex does have some really cool features.  However, in future projects I
will use a more traditional CF/html ui framework and only use Flex for
the interactive components that it does really well.

Anyway, that's my 2 cents.....  :-)

Scott
