I think the most viable solution is to fork flex , remove the old code and
target Stage3D.
We have the current version to leverage legacy applications, but we need to
target new platforms
Even rewrite the all framework or fork another framework based on Stage3D
is an option.

A re-write of the framework that does not leverage the innovations in Flash
Player and AIR meant to enhance performance on devices (especially IOS
devices), will IMHO, be probably a waste of effort.
Interesting you mentioned education. I know of at least one company in the

This is all true, and a re-write of the framework may not target this
scenario in the first go, but on the other hand, a re-write of the framework
may make its renderering on the displaylist acceptable, and then you will

It's also worth considering that a Flex application on mobile does work
(very) poorly on Retina display in the default direct renderMode, and it's
a structural issue Starling would solve.

I have J2me game dev background, and for me gaming is more about freely
moving sprites etc, and less menu and GUI like flex can provide.
Not much games have very complex GUI, so light weight framework like

It's interesting to take a look on what's going on in Unity3D world

They have a pretty advanced gaming runtime and similar to what Adobe is

Thanks for this thread Carlos,
Did you shared knowledge with Jonathan Campos regarding the starling
rendering layer issue?
If i understand well his last answer, its not trivial thing to manage,
but its realistic for a new major update. I think its good news, but

After last days news I was digging into Starling and cover lot of
stuff to get some initial knowledge. I really love what I see. I need
to continue the research more things like StarlingMVC, feathersui, and
so on...
IMO, the ways we have ahead to choose are:
