I believe I have successfully removed the Flex SDK jars from the FalconJX package without breaking anything. This should eliminate the unintended packaging of the Adobe jars and also not require any new changes to NOTICE. It would be great if folks who are good at catching these things could take

That was an awesome list! Thanks. Just curious, can text layout end up affecting more than two lines back? I still think it boils down to rectangles on a path but the path may not be a straight horizontal line or always going left-to-right, and you sometimes have to go back a bit. -Alex On 11/
