Re: [flexcoders] [Ann] Update on Sydney Dev Group Oct Meeting
bugga, i'm in Syd on wed :) oh well. Macromedia do use their own tools to promote finished software. The Studio8 online campaign was fantastic along with others i'm sure. What you all will be seeing on the 17th is a public ALPHA build of the FLEX 2.0 suite. This is the first time they have ever done something like this so quickly, so its all new territory. Who knows what they will do in terms of marketing behind this. The next gen FLEX suite is going to absorb millions more developers then their currenlty is available now. It will most likely done by word of mouth or show tell... Again, alpha... not even beta yet.

RE: [flexcoders] [Ann] Update on Sydney Dev Group Oct Meeting
Chris, I'm really surprised that a company such as Macromedia won't use it's own technology to get out the word. Doesn't it make more sense to use streaming video to get the word out? I mean really, a media company that refuses to use its resources...BTW - unless MM decides to send all of us poor slobs from the US to Australia for the conference, I guess be there or be... just doesn't apply.

James, on the 16, 17, 18 and 19 of October, the words will be flying thick and fast in Anaheim. It's alot easier and cheaper for people in the US to go to Anaheim than it is for some. I think it's nice of MM to present to our group. Although they've place restrictions on us for this meeting, it's difficult to say if they'll be discussing anything new. It's only 7 days before all will be revealed. Chris -- Chris Velevitch Manager - Sydney Flash Platform Developers Group www.flashdev.org.au Yahoo!
