Huh. Perhaps the company that wrote the Director xtra would consider farming out a copy to a Rev developer if they felt they could sell a few copies over on this side. Sounds about right though- Adobe in my experience is about as anti-standard, anti-open as Macromedia and their Flash format =). Both publish "open standards" but make it all but impossible to do anything with them if you don't license exorbitantly expensive libraries.
Apparently not prohibitively expensive though... I mean, a company which makes Director xtras got it. Granted, their market is bigger, but still... ;-)
From what I understand it was pretty expensive to create that Xtra. I was involved in some discussion with a couple of people about creating something similar for iShell but there was a major cost issue. My *guess* is that for this to happen for the Rev crowd right now someone would have to get a large project whose development costs could cover the creation of the external. I could be wrong though.
