Mihai Corlan, Platform Evangelist at Adobe, finalized a “book like” article for PHP developers. I mentioned the “book like” words because the article is long, very long.
The purpose of Mihai’s article is…
I want to share with you some of the things that are specific to Flex in relation to PHP. At the same time [...]
Yesterday, Matt Chotin was writing on the Flex Team blog (see here) that flex developers are needed to take part in research studies.
Adobe is interested how the professionals are using their tools, and especially about the work flow of flex developers. So you need to be a flex developer to qualify for this research [...]

Let’s say you created a new component and you want to add some properties that need to be bindable. Something like this:
<flexer:myComp width="400" height="200" myNewSetter="{_myData}" />
<mx:Script>
[Bindable]
private var _myData:String= "";
</mx:Script>
And when we do this
_myData = "new_val_1";
the myComp component should know that _myData has changed and should modify itself [...]

In the previous months some of Adobe evangelists handed out licensees of Flex Builder for people without job in order to help them get a job by reconverting them. Ben Forta said on his blog:
We did not launch a full program for this, just a grassroots initiative thought up and delivered by your friendly Adobe [...]
If you didn’t know by now, the version 3.3 of Flex SDK is released. You can download it from here.
As Mihai Corlan from Adobe said…
Basically it is about bug fixes, and including the last players. Last week the AIR 1.5.1 was launched, it was natural to come with this SDK too.
…no new features.
The bugs [...]
I think some of you may encountered this “wonderful” runtime error, mostly when you work in a team, building different applications that will load in another one.
Shortly the application is telling us that parts are build using different versions of Flex SDK. In my case the main application was build using Flex SDK version 3.1.0 [...]
