HELLO WORLD,

“Developers AND Designers may I introduce you to the next version of FLEX! Heeeeeeerrrrrrreeeee’s …” [spotlight shines on empty stage containing a sign reading - COMING SOON] :)

But seriously …

Matt Chotin released a very interesting and very informative presentation about the next version of Flex, code named GUMBO. Check out the online presentation here;

Flex Authority is ‘off to the Presses!’

Filed under: ColdFusion, Flex — therush @ 11:08 am

HELLO WORLD,

The same company that brought you Fusion Authority is about to “Do it again!” Those wonderful people at House of Fusion is about to release the first edition of their newest print journal, Flex Authority. You can get more information on their site - http://www.flex-authority.com/

Much like the Fusion Authority, Flex Authority will be a quarterly print technical journal aimed at the Flex Professional. The first issue will be released this month at 360|Flex in San Jose, CA.

Jeffry Houser, the “wizard behind the curtain” at The Flex Show, is the Editor in Chief of Flex Authority. I’ve been a fan of the Flex Show since it’s first podcast and I love listening to it every chance I get. I now look forward to reading each and every issue of Flex Authority.

Filed under: AIR, Adobe, Flex — therush @ 7:47 pm

HELLO WORLD,

On Monday, June 16th Adobe AIR 1.1 was made available for download on the Adobe.com site. To learn more about this dot release you can take a look at this FAQ (PDF);

Items of note:

Matt Chotin has posted an article about developing Flex applications with AIR 1.1

The Flex SDK is including support for AIR 1.1 in the 3.0.2 stable build. You can download it from here.

Adobe AIR 1.1 documentation can be found here.

I find that it is a worthwhile upgrade.
