I'm following the discussions about JS transcoding in the last weeks - I do
not feel skilled enough to contribute, but I'd like to thanks you all (and
Frank Wienberg in particular) for the detailed explanations - really
interesting stuff.

they probably rely on the value of Capabilities.screenDPI [3] which, while

Actually, a lot of mobile features could be ported to desktop in the
future, as it seems to me that the differences are going to be less and

the 4.x branch, I thought they were in "maintenance mode" (exluding
the work on spark skins for halo).

The EmptyItemComboBox class posted by David Coleman looks similar to

@Tink: I see that pratically *all* the application frameworks designed
for Flex try to address this requirements someway.

@LeftRight: I agree that event-based async methods are more idiomatic,
but my opinion is that they are more simple to use only in a limited
use cases. If you take the scenario I described (if f(x) return g(x)

very complex, yet it
Good point, Justin.
Note that the "single" concurrency just throws an error if you try to
invoke a second call while there is another one in progress for the
same RemoteObject.

@LeftRight: about faults.. the first idea on my mind was simply
translating fault events into standard Error throwing, so you can use
normal try/catch logic to handle failed sequences instead of
explicitly analyzing the result of each "synchronized" invocation.

Thank you for the suggestions, in fact I wrote some classes to help
managing a set of parallel/sequence remote invocations (e.g. lanch
multiple methods sequentially or in parallel, and notify me with the

Just a suggestion about #49: the logo author may try to shorten the

IMO, #40 is a little too impersonal, and also somewhat similar to the
JBoss ModeShape project (http://www.jboss.org/modeshape)

I think we should first identify which low-level requirements that any
module system may want to address.
I see the following ones, in ascending order of complexity:
1) bootstrap-time incremental loading of modules
2) late and on-demand incremental loading of modules
3) support for on-demand u

Hello Michael,
thanks, this is very interesting - I am probably the user you were
referring to :)
I don't have the time to look into it now, but I'd like to know if the

you manage runtime loading and unloading of plugins, and I
In some mobile projects based on AIR I ended up creating a
SkinnablePopUpContainer to provide drop down lists with a more native
feeling.
The "mobile way" of presenting a selection among a list of values is
usually obtained displaying the value of the selected item, and to
open, on touch, a popup
