Hi Firdosh, Sorry for the slow reply, I got stuck in Vegas because of the snowstorm and have yet to find my way home from my trip.
Here is a description and a bio thing for later if you need one. -Cort OpenLaszlo Babelfish for OsFlash Speakers This will be A translation service and introduction to the openlaszlo landscape for osflash developers who are curious about openlaszlo. It will assume the audience is fairly experienced with traditional actionscript coding and is curious about openlaszlo from a developer's standpoint. I'm a technologist, not an evangelist; so this won't be a sales pitch. I will mention where I think the best niches are for the various lanugages, but comparisons will be mainly for perspective, not to sell them on laszlo over something else. Examples will be for comparison, not to wow the crowd. One area of focus will be some of the language features of lzx and how they relate to ones that the osflash community is already familiar with. Dataproviders, binding, event handling, initialization order of components, the arpish analogs for normal application development with an lzx version of pizzaservice. Another is to show where someone would look to start adding different pieces of functionality to openlaszlo depending on it's type, where would a library go, vs a component vs an enhancement to the media transcoder or language compiler. I'm not sure yet to what degree this will be based on OL 3.3 which I'm most familiar with, or OL4.0 which is just coming out and has undergone some significant changes to support multiple runtime engines. Along the way I'll show some nice templating features of Komodo Edit for Laszlo development (and other languages) and at the end I will talk a bit about things that are on the deck for the near future. About me. All I wanted to do is create graphic novels of plays "The Three Penny Opera" in the style of Max Beckmann. I started out as an illustrator, but somhow got off track and went back to school for an ms in computer science. I've been working for about a dozen years now. I designed and programmed a lot of multimedia educational cd software for about 5 years. As the web became popular, I found myself doing more and more Flash programming - where I think my greatest job skill was an extreeme tollerance for fustration. When Laszlo went open source, my curiosity drew me in and I was increasingly impressed with and absorbed by it until I found work doing it as well. I'm currently a contractor for Troy Web Consulting which is a great bunch of technologists and I'm getting my Flex skills up to par with my actionscript and lzx skills, just in time for Flash9 and Laszlo4 to come out. It's a great time for curious people, but continuing bad news for any bohemian aspirations that I once had.
