Our company chose Flex for obvious reasons six years ago and now we are
looking to what is next. We built an application that is similar to
Word/Excel/Powerpoint and we are heavily dependent on TLF (unfortunately
version 1 of TLF because we forked) and FTE.

Long story short we are trying to do what the Flash Player does outside of
Flash. We have seen other companies have success using Emscripten and
asm.js so if Adobe could open source parts of the Flash Player then we
could get some of the Flash Player functionality in javascript. FTE and the
Core Text Services C library (documentation
<http://www.adobe.com/cn/devnet/flash/articles/tlf-overview.html>) inside
of the Flash Player are of particular interest to me and anyone else that
was using TLF in their Flex application. This also has potential of making
the effort for Flex JS easier.

Thoughts?
