by the way, with all this type of language features, it'll be interesting

Pros :- Actionscript and Flash are the same thing to the outside world, Flex
goes beyond Flash- Adobe will market AS as a language for games and video, not
officially for Flex enterprise apps, this is confusing and to be honest casts a
shadow over Flex which we cannot do anything about...
Cons
There is a simple answer to this.
Keep AS3, it's a language name, not a product. Flex is a product, if
you want to do something, change the image of Flex. We have a new
name, Falcon AS3.
Evolution just happens. My work with the compiler is meant to empower

No need to change the name IMO. We didn't get AS3.1 when we got Vectors or

People seem to be missing my point...
Adobe and Apache Flex now both have a compiler, so both are in a position
to make changes to the language. If these changes aren't in sync then
effectively
two separate languages are evolving. Therefore neither of them is AS3
anymore. (ot at least one of them..

Yes, this sounds good. I think, on the old flex.org page there was also a

And we should not forget the category desktop AIR apps. And maybe "categorize"
