As Alex and I have been going through it I've tried to keep compileable as long as I could. When it came to the icons I reused mostly all Eclipse icons since that is open source. We decided after some discussion that we (the community) should or could recreate the icons later. To keep the project compilable I decided to blacken out the images rather than remove them and have the compiler complain. If someone so chooses they can look at the runtime demo at radii8.com/demo until we get replacements. Remarkably we haven't had to remove too many classes. But where we have removed functionality I will document those cases and we can rewrite or work on getting permission after donation. I will document those cases so we know where and what was removed or doesn't work. Alex is well aware of these cases and that's partially why we didn't want to liter the list with these details until later. We were planning to provide all this information at some point and it's astute of you to notice and get more info. We just need to get the donation secured first IMHO and then go back and work on these issues after. The idea among a few ideas was to create a Flex Explorer / Design view online so people can try Flex and see the generated code. At the same time it's also in my opinion to create a design time canvas / design view we can use for our projects where we dint have to create something from scratch. We tell our client we can create a furniture layout designer that customers can use and that it will take 6 months but really we will use this, add some furniture components and then drink margaritas on the beach for 5 months. Somewhat joking but that's the plan. The other plan is to create awesome layouts that export Flex MXML but also HTML for mobile sites bc we all agree imho that we would rather do something else than code HTML layouts. I get the feeling no one on this dev list doesn't know how to do this but me personally. Once it's all committed we will work on getting it going, listing what works, what doesn't, what direction / needs / services people on the community want or need or would just like to see. > Do we have any idea on how much work may be required to get this into a > releasable state?
