Well, adobe is moving more and more towards open source, hence their stance on AIR and Flex, which are both completely open source as far I as understand... I know from the ubuntu devs that they even asked whether they can help with the creation of a totally open source flash implementation... (flash not gnash)<br>
<br>How does Flex differ from Flash? would it not be possible to do Flex instead?<br><br>David<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jul 2, 2008 at 5:36 PM, Bryan Berry <<a href="mailto:bryan.berry@gmail.com">bryan.berry@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br>

I read through the license a couple months ago and if I can recall<br>
correctly, an organization can distribute copies of flash within its<br>
LAN. Technically I am the sysadmin for the schools and they are w/in my<br>
LAN. I don't "ship" flash or post an XO build that includes flash on a<br>
publicly accessible web server. Hopefully this will hold up in court :)<br>
