Flex goes Open Source!

April 25, 2007 · 1 Comment

Adobe just announced their plans to release the source code for Adobe Flex as open source. You can read more details on Adobe Labs. The Mozilla Public License will be used to cover the source the AS3 Flex SDK (available in source form since the release of Flex 2) as well as the Java source for the AS3 and MXML compilers, the debugger and the core AS3 libraries from the SDK. Most of the infrastructure should be in place by the summer with a full transition to open source by the end of 2007.

    They need to do the same thing with Coldfusion. Now. It's already approaching the threshold of being irrelevant.
