Hi Alex, for me is a barrier. I think Adobe should have it's own maven repository with flash, air and other needed stuff to ease development of people using their software. I think it's something convenient for Adobe as a company that sells technology to software integrators, game developers and other people. If Adobe make this movement people using maven will be more happy and will have access to the software Adobe is trying to push. So all will gain from this.
why it would be a barrier? because nowadays build software and CI servers is a must and people expect to have all solved with some scripting. If we say "you have to set this and that manually, downloading version X and putting in some folder here or there", we'll never could compete in the big league. just my 2ctns.
