Well if we are moving some of the stuff around, but want to allow people to 
still find it...   Should we make the utils and AS3commons its own namespace / 
library to make it an easier transition for people?  Then they would just have 
to add a new header property to access the previous components / methods.

xmlns:u="library://ns.apache.org/flex/utils"

Subject: Re: [DISCUSS] Adopting AS3Commons

I'm not a fan of changing the package names.  Already this week we heard folks 
wanting AMF because they don't want to change their backend, and I've heard 
several folks wanting a more Spark-like API surface for FlexJS.   My new mantra 
for 2016 is to try to not make more work for folks who are migrating their code.

What do we really gain by changing package names and making folks alter their 
code?  Would we also switch out mx and spark for org.apache.flex?

I suppose we could bundle AS3Commons with the SDK, but keep in mind that I 
think we want to make as much of AS3Commons work for FlexJS as well.

@Chris and/or Christophe, what other libraries is AS3Commons dependent on that 
we need to be concerned about?

Thanks,
-Alex
