I got hit with the question of “Open Source” quite often at the past couple of un-conferences. With the SDK being free in the second release of Flex and the Actionscript engine going open source …it seemed like a natural next step. Well, Adobe agrees! 
Read the press release about Flex going Open Source after the release of 3.0 this year!
What am I most excited about? Well instead of our community having twenty implementations of the same components, that talent can be harnessed through direct contribution to the core SDK. This WILL speed its evolution! Not to mention another jump start for Apollo development!
