Hi Eric,
good point; I did not think about that other "flex" use case ;-)

Since Tour De Flex has "Flex" in it, a search for Flex might be okay.
But another of my concerns would be that typing Flex in the Play Store
makes us compete with a lot of "gym" and other applications.. it's
just a very common word. Linking to Apache gives it some distinction.
Just my thoughts on the topic.

Hi Eric, Om
Eric, I agree with you: Flex (and Apache) should show up.
I was about to delete the email with TDF in the subject, because TDF did
not ring a bell (OK, now perhaps it will...).
I would search for somehting with Flex in the mobile stores, but
certainly not for TDF; if at all (not a mobile freak neither ;-)
I might find some time to look into it on both platforms, but would not
call that "tests".
Regards

2 - I don't know if this is a "better" name since it's certainly more
boring, but if you're thinking it needs a new name, I suggest renaming
it something with Apache Flex in it. That term needs to get plastered
all over the Internet in as many places as possible IMO. Maybe
something like "Apache Flex [Mobile] Showcase", assuming people agree
it's a good fit. Boring, I know, but it's straight to the point and
links Apache to Flex.
3 - I'm curious enough to try testing (although honestly, I'm not a
big fan of anything mobile - go ahead, call me Cave Man).

interested in testing the apps, please let me know.

Now that 4.14.1 is out of the way, I want to concentrate on
releasing the
new Tour de Flex Mobile app on Google Play and Apple App stores. I
have
rebuilt the iOS and Android apps with the new skins and they do look
pretty
good, good enough to release. I plan to be the release manager for
this
release.
Here are a few issues we need to consider:
1. The ASF does not currently have a way to let TLP projects to sign
app
store binaries. Instead of waiting on them, I plan to release it
under my
own name, but with enough disclaimers to say that this is an
[un]official
release of the Apache Flex project (only the binaries) We will be
releasing the source under the normal release process, of course.
2. Does anyone want to suggest a better name than Tour de Flex
Mobile?
Or is this good enough?
3. Testing the binaries will be an interesting problem.
a. For the Android platform, I can put up the .apk file on our
Apache
dist folder and ask folks to download it from there.
b. As far as the iOS app goes, I am planning on creating a
TestFlight
team and send an invite to users@ and dev@ so that folks can sign up
for
testing those apps.
Any suggestions or concerns, please feel free to raise them here.
Thanks,
Om
