And with Red5, Darren :o). I already knew that, my surprise was that i was reading about Flex 2 and at first i didn't realized that FDS was being used for pushing data, so i got curious on how it was achieved.
About the framework, i really don't care about the SS language, and matters to me most is the architecture and the practices applied. :) For now, synchronizing via data polling on AS2 would be enough for me, later i'll try FDS. :) Thank you Darren Cook wrote: >> The previous question was for AS2.0 .
