I thought I knew who at Adobe worked on this so I sent him mail this morning. I just heard back from him. - Yes, he was working on it but hasn't touched it in about 2 years. - He doesn't think there is anyone at Adobe or Facebook that is actively supporting it. - There is a relatively active group that self-supports the API though: https://groups.google.com/group/facebook-actionscript-api Carol
