Is it definitive that Adobe will not donate the DV code to Apache?
I thought there were no legal issues to do it, as it was a full air app?
(not like Catalyst)
Maybe we could start to try to obtain it before starting something else
from scratch.
At least it worse to get a deep look at how it was done, and it would be
sad that the DV code get lost for no good reason.

In closing, if I knew ActionScript had a future and I was rich and had
a bunch of geek friends that I played music with, I would start an
opensource IDE using the Eclipse platform and the new Falcon compiler
and start all over taking a minimalistic approach.
No kitchen sink, just absolutely required functionality. We would then
be in control of our own universe and anybody that wanted to use it,
extend it, hate it, love it would be welcome since it would be the
Apache Flex IDE plugin. ;-)

Quoting Roland Zwaga <rol...@stackandheap.com>:
This is like playing with a video game, it looks fun but really has no
bearing on the discussion other than having a realization that we
could use
a socket for communication.
And for that matter, the client code (Eclipse Java) is buried in FDT, I
don't even think they give access to that, just the ActionScript API
side.
So all in all, this is still a proprietary idea from FDT.
I was afraid of that. But also understandable, they built this API in
order
to drive more customers to FDT, I can't blame them...
