Hi Mike,

Glad that you sorted out the confusion about FlexUnit and its versions ... this 
really had me worried a little now and then :-)

Seems you are having the same problem I was having with Flexmojos. Velo as the 
main contributor also seems to have left the Flex road and I was willing to 
keep it alive. So I joined that project and took over its development. 

What exactly do you need help with? My current solution was to upload 
4.1.0-flex to my companies repo and to make Flexmojos work with that (Had to do 
a little refactoring of FM to support parameterized tests, but got it working 
nicely). Currently the only problem I am having is that I can't push my FM 
changes back to the main trunk because the dependency to flexunit-4.1.0-flex is 
hosted nowhere. Would it be possible to simply upload the artifact somewhere 
publically? Or would there be any problems with this (It seems the 4.0-RC2 was 
uploaded by Velo into the Sonatype Maven Repo). I didn't want to do this on my 
own as it's not my software. If you could do that however it would be great and 
I would be pleased to push my stuff back to trunk.

Chris

FlexUnit 4.x is the successor to the FlexUnit .85 version you discussed.
FlexUnit 4.1 is the current release (http://www.flexunit.org/?page_id=14) it is 
slightly different than the RCs before it.
FlexUnit 4.2 is the version that will be contributed to Apache

Part of the confusion comes from the fact that only the older (RC) versions 
were submitted to a public repo. A number of people have contributed 
infrastructure fixes to the project to make it easier to push it to a repo, 
however, none of them are complete. Part of the issue is that FlexUnit really 
has two flavors. There is an AS only version and a version with Flex 
dependencies. This is an unfortunate side effect of trying to marry to Flex, 
which is light on interfaces and heavy on implementations.

At the time that development last stopped, the project was being refactored to 
handle this differently and hence make it all a little more maven friendly 
(slated to be version 4.2). That is the version which will be contributed to 
ASF.

Yennick did some excellent work getting us 99.5% to submitting automatically to 
a Maven repo 
(https://github.com/SlevinBE/flexunit/commit/d9dc78955ed31e7ed11d390c2c38fb639b2227bc)
 so, to that end, I am happy to have any help getting things finalized and 
actually brought over. The reality of the situation is that everyone actively 
working on FlexUnit has left the Flex community. This means that any work on 
FlexUnit presently is being done solely by me and between a million other 
things. That means its slow going so happy to have anyone who wants to help, 
contribute.

Mike
