    • The Apache Flex Contributors believe in a mantra to help ensure we as a community have a consensus about changes and additions to the Framework: "If it didn't happen on the list, it didn't happen." Subscribing to a to the Apache Flex Mailing List (http://incubator.apache.org/flex/mailing-lists.html) will allow you to follow and contribute to the discussions.

    • 4.9.x - Versions to apply bug fixes and improvements that do not introduce API breakages, do not add significant new features, components, or Spark architecture changes.
    • 5.0.x - First Apache Flex big release. First big changes will start arriving for this version.
