Ok, sorry, i was just kind of irritated, that pages have been deleted in such a 
rude way.

Yes, apologies for that. I'm from the school of source-control that says, "commit now - discuss with peers later"... (Much to Aral's annoyance ;-))

don't see a problem with that. As far as i remember, even Peter contributed some parts to the AMF reengineering. I wonder, what is different with this new content?

The difference being creating useful tools that work with existing technology. There is no criticism of investigating Flash 8 player, or publishing summaries of the APIs. The criticism is of its placement on osflash.

As you said before, the fc wiki is down. Maybe osflash can replace it. I don't see a problem with that. As far as i remember, even Peter contributed some parts to the AMF reengineering. I wonder, what is different with this new content?

Cheers,

I don't think that's the case at all - I think we're just trying to come to a 
concensus of where the information should go.
It's not an "open source flash project" and there shouldn't be linked from the main navigation. It should probably be linked from the MTASC page, but if anything it really belongs under an MTASC_API page, with sections for Flash 6, Flash 7, and Flash 8.

I'm not trying to stop the information from being available, but I don't think osflash is the right place for it. Again, osflash is open source Flash-related projects, but something like undocumented features really belongs on a general purpose flash wiki.

It really belongs on the FlashCoders wiki, but it's a shame that wiki has been shut down. Perhaps it's time to start a new wiki for this type of information, as well as things like more undocumented features, best practices, tips and tricks, etc.

If someone posted a tutorial on creating a .swf with one of the new filters, then I agree that it belongs in the tutorials section on OSFlash (since it's showing how to compile with MTASC) - code that I can copy and paste, feed into MTASC, and see results. However, just listing the API and sections like performance benchmarks, I fail to see how that is osflash related. Yes it's useful information, but again, I think it belongs somewhere else. I don't want to see osflash lose it's focus.
