That probably won't happen. Adobe has to have a "fork" so it can control the source it is working with, and the folks who will make changes to that source are not committers to the Apache Flex project at this time. We will integrate patches to the Adobe fork into Apache where relevant. I hope tha= t two years out we'll have made so many changes the old code so far behind that changes may not integrate cleanlyl. In a perfect world, there will never be a reason for Adobe to cut another release of Flex. But if there is another release, it is more likely to be = a 4.6.1 instead of a 4.7. I was going to propose going with years "Apache Flex 2012.0" but now I thin= k FlashBuilder may be doing that which could cause confusion. I will try to find out for sure. I don't think we can go back to 1.0 because of the version checking scheme already in there. --=20 Alex Harui Flex SDK Team Adobe Systems, Inc. http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui
