  • 4.8.0 - First Apache Flex version. This version should be pretty much identical to what Adobe donated with 4.6.0.

    or Spark architecture changes.
  • 5.0.x - First Apache Flex big release. First big changes will start arriving for this version.

^ - These versioning numbers have NOT been discussed directly with Adobe. It is being taken as a "just in case" measure.

Pending decisions

• Coding Style: Possibly in the same format of existing code to avoid having to format all the code base
