Well I have never used the DataWizards ... as far as I understood them they 
sort of generate AS versions of you model classes and somehow create wrappers 
for accessing servers. I don't like checking in generated code so I have always 
user the generator built into Flexmojos which generates all this stuff as part 
of the maven build. 

I think my issue with the jars was that the ANT script sort of downloads them 
but I couldn't find a single one of them available via Maven. There might be 
solutions to that problem, but I sort of didn't put that effort in there cause 
I knew none who actually used them. If they are important, I will try to get 
them working though. 

You say that you need the tomcat optional jar in order to be able to work ... 
but isn't tomcat one of the opts that are built? It's some of the other 
platforms that don't work, but tomcat should be fine.

Somehow, the Ant build is building the jars in modules/opt.  And for me,
with a freshly installed Tomcat 6, I needed those jars to get going.

BlazeDS fans, if you need the WAR file, let us know.

Well, I don’t know where it came from and can’t find its source.  FB uses
it for the BlazeDS data wizards.

To compile a SWF that references a services-config.xml, Flex SDK only
needs flex-messaging-common.jar.  But to use your BlazeDS web app in the
FB data wizards you needs flex-rds-server.jar.  IF we ship without this
jar, will we get tons of complaints from our users?  BlazeDS fans, how
many of you are using FB Data Wizards?

Thanks,
