Your haXe system looks interesting but we should be looking at moving from Flash to HTML5.
Man.. the reason why my letter is so long is because i wanted to give you wider picture. haXe is not FLASH at all. it's similar language to AS3 and able to compile to swf but also to native C++ there is no issue with this. Is very powerful programing language has more features and improvements that AS3. better memory management, no issues with GC and memory leak and many many more. even some clever guy there showed some experiment that can has openGL acceleration!

You didn't read all i wrote, don't you?

I agree Flash is not the fastest language in terms of performance but it's in terms of production time. Do you need prove? I have Flaemo version which is copy of Maemo OS written in Flash of course id not so complex and rubust... (hmm is it?). It took me 2 weeks. How long it took bunch of developers to make it happen here? And they still fighting. I am already rewriting whole project for haXe. As well as I am no longer wont to make a copy of Memo, no point. I wont to go one step behind. But ability to create app for N900 instead of WebOS would be another one step to bring more guys to support this product and extend life time.

I took me 1 hour to make a you tube widget. How long you guys playing with those you tube apps here? I hope more "Open" linux developers here.

And once again haXe is not flash. Can compile to it but as well as to c++ and port to ARM linux. Question is how to because nobody tried yet. I am giving you information about the solution but need help from other side.
