No argument.
I'd like to think I was clearly expressing personal preference, not
dictating other people's actions.

Just to be fair. If they want to make another set of Components that
is completely their choice. Sorry Jeff for responding with this to
your post, just see lots of people talking about what should and
should not be done. We all have to remember that some people's
passions may be in a different direction then what we believe and that
is perfectly okay.
I can't say that everyone's passion will be accepted into the trunk,
but you are more than happy to work on it.

Has open Laszlo stayed up to date? I hadn't heard of it in many
years.
I--personally--would rather see efforts put towards optimizing
existing Flex Components or the component framework; not on
creating a 3rd component framework within Flex.

It would make sense to build a light-weight component set for
Flex,
which could be used for rendering Flex apps in HTML5 later on. The
approach could be based on the UI/component implementation
OpenLaszlo
has (which provides cross-compilation features for
ActionScript and
JavaScript, check this demo):

And it's not only on mobile, on desktop (mostly Mac's)
this is a problem
also. I'm talking about big enterprise applications and
websites here
(like a CMS with graphical skin applied, nothing really in
standard Flex
skin)

+1 on this. Performance definitely needs to be
addressed on Flex. I've
noticed that on newer devices, it works fine. But on
the slightly older
ones, performance is a huge issue. Hopefully we can
get in there and
clean it up so it performs better.

I've worked on Flex applications for the past 4-5
years and see a lot
of developers picking it up since it is easy to
create rich
applications. However performance is often an issue.
I mostly see it when using a lot of styles (or one
large CSS file) and
skinned components (It is even worse with Flex 4
then it was with Flex
3). When a Flex application gets really large the
UI is blocked because
there is too much actionscript code needed to get
things running. (with
this I mean the processing time is acceptable but
UI is blocked so the
perception is that things are slow)
Therefore I'd like to vote on improving the
performance of the Flex
framework where possible so new and existing
applications can benefit.
Flex 4 with spark is great but comes with some
performance drawbacks, I
hope we can improve on this significantly.
I'm speaking on behalf of the experience and
perception in the company
I work for, I'm curious to see if this is also a
problem for the rest of
you.
I'm not the expert here but I'd like to get
involved and learn so I can
eventually help to fix issues but I believe
UIComponent had some
overhead and this together with the StyleManager
can cause performance
drawbacks in large applications
