To be honest I lost you now ;/ What you mean by this? I haven't seen you on this threat before. If you mean I lost you as potential support I am really sorry for you that didn't read this because this whole thing is no about Flash at all. But about Flash Developers that can go for open source solution haXe and make contribution to even this platform.

Anyway do you thing that would be possible to develop haXe 2 swf compiler if the Flash is no open source? You probably stick to information from years ago. Now everyone can enjoy AS3 written in FlashDevelop and Open Source Flex SDK or even you can go there http://wonderfl.net/ and write your won stuff online. The only think Adobe keeping eye on is Flash Player Distribution license. But Kevin Lynch introduced that to make Flash happens on the mobiles they will remove this restrictions in the future!.

Where the hell you ppl taking in formations from?
