Greetings! Sorry if I'm asking a stupid question - but what's the status of Apache Flex now?
When do y'all think we can see some new and improved Flex Charts with those much needed fixes<http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-flex-dev/201201.mbox/%3ccaooo88b-o17z3qhshcptwkqmsrjgvezhmutv_7mezojgcd7...@mail.gmail.com%3E>? For i.e. the simplest Flex Bar Chart possible<https://gist.github.com/1623628>, the simplest Flex Area Chart possible <https://gist.github.com/1623625> and the simplest Flex Pie Chart possible <https://gist.github.com/1623621>? I can't think of a more professional way to display important financial data!
