May 25 Need More Motivation To Come FlashCamp Orlando?

Flash (Flex) Camp Orlando is this Friday, May 29th.  If you've been reluctant to sign up, I've got some things that may motivate you:

  • There will be a big announcement from Adobe.  Think of this as a launch event.... *wink wink*
  • We will be giving away a free copy of CS4 Master Collection
  • We will be giving away multiple copies of FlexBuilder
  • Lots of swag, this is a launch event, after all
Go to sign up now before it's too late!  Also, we have a new team package available:  Buy two registrations, get the third one free.  So, if you needed a reason to come to Flash Camp Orlando, I hope one of these is that reason.  It will be a great day full of great Flash Platform content from top industry experts.

May 21 Merapi Source Now Available!

The past couple of weeks have been pretty busy within the Merapi core, but all the work has paid off.  Merapi is finally open-source and available on GoogleCode.  The architecture has really changed over the past year, but the core functionality has stayed the same.  It's more of a change in how we get messages to the bridge than across the bridge.  Regardless though, after a year of forcing you to take our word for what it's doing, you can now go get the code and see yourself.

http://merapi.googlecode.com/
http://merapi-examples.googlecode.com/
http://groups.google.com/group/merapi-project

At some point I will go over some of the changes that are coming to the Java side, but the short, short version is that we're going to be integrating tightly with Spring and leveraging some of the powerful DI that Spring gives us to make the Bridge dynamically configurable.  More on that to come later though.  Go over to GoogleCode, join the group and let us know what you think!
