Title
JUDGEMENT DAY
Entry
Adobe's bombshell this week regarding Flash has the whole development community in flux. IMHO, I had a feeling the Flash/Flex was headed towards the legacy app bin but believed that it would be a gradual process as with other legacy technologies. I don't know if there's actually a precendence for what Adobe has done but regardless, it has far reaching impacts on all of us.
If you haven't heard about the future of Flex yet, this post is a must read: http://blogs.adobe.com/flex/2011/11/your-questions-about-flex.html
As for the future of SDADUG, I haven't heard from Adobe as yet on what's next. Obviously, there will be changes and I promise to keep you updated.
I wanted to start this post to provide a forum where our local community could share their thoughts. If there's interest in having a meeting, maybe in conjunction with the San Diego Flash User Group, to strategize/vent, please let me or Chris know.
Hang in there, Adobe Developers. Remember, we all have great transferrable skills and there's a lot of value in all that we've learned with Adobe technologies over the years.
