> for 3 years at least I think I researched the state of Flash for developers about 2000, and again about 2005, and last looked at it around 2008 or 2009. Haxe was just getting started the last time I looked at it, and I've heard it mentioned a couple places since then. Anything that's happened in Flash development-land in the last three years isn't on my radar. Really, my early ventures into Flash-land were so discouraging, and in more recent years the advent of HTML5 was so encouraging, that Flash may end up permanently relegated to my low-priority pile of things like Lisp, Prolog, Haskell and Unity, things I want to look into again when I have mountains of free time and/or money to spend on extremely unfamiliar things, which might possibly give me interesting new capabilities, but for which an initial cost-benefit analysis has ended in pointed, skeptical questions that I can't answer very well.
