Hi,

Was looking though some of the framework code and noticed that a lot of
method are marked up with comments that are imported into documents re
player version and the like.
  Here's a typical section.
      *  @langversion 3.0
      *  @playerversion Flash 9
      *  @playerversion AIR 1.1
      *  @productversion Flex 3

Going forward when adding new methods what are the values we should use?
Do we just go with current versions like so:
      *  @langversion 3.0
      *  @playerversion Flash 11.1
      *  @playerversion AIR 3.1
      *  @productversion Apache Flex 4.7

I'd really like it if we could figure out a way of getting rid of all
that crap out of the framework as it makes reading the code far more
difficult.

David.

I'd love to find a solution that would let us continue to generate ASDocs
without polluting the code with tons of comments.

I cannot adamantly disagree more with this statement. I have never heard anyone complain about too many comments before. I have never experienced a situation where I revisited code and thought "Gee, I wish I didn't write so many comments."

I think this can be important information to have; even the ASDoc / Version information. I do not believe that removing comments will help code readibility in a significant way. I do believe it may decrease code understandability.
