Re: Proposal: Code Example / Application Development Procedure (was: Re: Non-core code, contrib and samples (was: Goal for Flex: Strengthening large-scale Flex applications...))

I wanted to create some getting started examples too because it has taken me a while to understand how to put all the pieces in Flex together. I think it would be helpful to see examples and would even welcome review and discussion on it. I think we can and should make it clear that the example is

Re: Flex incubation on Apache as Opensource

If you go by line numbers then anyone who places the opening brace on the next line will have at least 25% more lines than someone

Re: Did Flex lost contact to its investors?

Could it be the winter holidays? Work has always slowed during Thanksgiving and Christmas. It usually picks up after people get back into their jobs. BTW We follow Flash news. Not every business does. Some companies are oblivious and others don't care. They don't care because they know we are the
