Adobe has provided a work around for FB 4.7 but not for 4.6.

Please vote to approve this release:
+1 Approve the release

This vote will be open for 72 hours or until a result can be called.

The vote passes if there is:
- At least 3 +1 votes from the PMC
- More positive votes than negative votes

Votes are being carried over from the previous RC as there has only been minor 
changes between RCs. 

If you voted previously and wish to remove your vote from this release (for 
whatever reason) just indicate so in this thread by changing your vote to +0 or 
-1 if you have a good reason.

-0 (binding)
Erik de Bruin

If you find an issue with the release that's a "show stopper" please don't hold 
off voting -1. If someone votes -1 please continue testing we want to try and 
catch as many issues as we can and cut down on the number of release 
candidates. Remember existing voters can change their vote during the voting 
process.

People who are not in PMC are also encouraged to test out the release and vote, 
although their votes will not be binding, they can influence how the PMC votes.

When voting please indicate what OS, IDE, Flash Player version and AIR version 
you tested the SDK with. 

Please put all discussion about this release candidate in the DISCUSSION thread 
not this VOTE thread.

Thanks,
Justin
