Hi ... adding my few cents to the discussion ;-)

- I would vote for streamlining the packaging and give it some package / 
artifact names down the path of "org.apache.flex.commons" ... no real need for 
the "as3" as I think the apache-flex allready sets the path.
- I would make it a seperate sub-project as as3commons reference a huge amount 
of other libraries which I don't quite know the license status of ... I would 
expect some to be Apache-Bad-Style licenses and I don't want these issues to 
block further releases of the SDK
- I would make it a seperate sub-project as as3commons is currently build with 
maven and the SDK is not ... 
- I would make it a seperate sub-project as there is no need to release all 
this stuff for each new SDK (Especially as I would doubt that there would be 
too much contributions to it ... as3commons is allready open-sourced and not 
much is happening ... and I'm not expecting too much to happen here)

We have lots of sub-projects that have been donated that haven't been finished 
or released yet ... I don't want to add another huge code base that's not taken 
care of. But getting an official Apache release of these would enable us to 
publish versions to Maven-Central, making things a lot easier for Maven people 
like me ;-)

But with this codebase I would volunteer to get it up to shape as this is built 
with Maven and Flexmojos and I think this is actually the place I need to 
contribute after dropping the ball on all non-maven things ;-)

Hey, you committer ;-) You have all the power to drag those components and put 
them in.  I like your idea.

Thanks,
