Hi Chris, I hope that you don't really think that your effort is waste of time!!! Like others I've also not so much time and I've spend most of this time with testing the maven build in the past. I think FlexJS is on a good way but we should care to not raise false expectations. During my FlexJS

For me, FlexJS is 'rocket science' - I'm not an expert in compilers, or even the build tools involved - I've written a few simple maven scripts here and there. I also have less time - my employeer has a single Flex application now, and one in AIR. New work is in Ember, Angular or some other

Hi, While I’m still precipitating and not exactly silent - it’s not as much as I once was contributing. Reasons in no particular order. - I’m mentoring and involved in a number of other Apache projects and need to split my limited volunteer time between them - I’m no longer working on Flex

Hi Christopher, well, I’ve been silent on this mailing list, but I’m reading it very carefully. So here are my 2 cents as a non-contributor: > - lack of interest? No. I for my part cannot wait for FlexJS to become reality. Just had a job interview and they were all ears when I told them

Hi Chris, my thinking on this is different. Since 0.7, things start to settle a bit and we reach a huge milestone. Until now, it was so difficult for people out there to contribute or even know what's happening inside this project. Thanks to some lines of work (maven, next gen, and many
