Radiate is super cool...way beyond my ability to contribute but, I'd be happy to purchase a copy when it's finished.

And it looks well thought out as well. We've had some discussions in the past on this list about a tool like this. Do you have any plans of contributing it to Apache Flex? I would be interested in in helping expand this tool. I am a spread out a bit too think with the Installer, tracking, etc. and my Stage3D experimentation. But building a designer/developer tool like this really interests me. In past discussions, Michael Schmalle had mentioned that combining such a tool with Falcon's capabilities would make for very interesting possibilities [1] Please let me know your thoughts.
