As someone who absolutely hated Spark when it came out, that FlatSpark theme is entirely different (MUCH better). Hopefully the author will donate it.

And not to be a party pooper, but I recommend a little consideration before committing resources to a contest. If it could possibly delay the first "real" release of FlexJS (or slow other important work), that puts a contest in a different light. I could be thinking about this wrong, but I feel there should be a sense of urgency getting a production-ready version out there so this SDK can start growing at a much faster pace.

I like the contest idea.  That way FlatSpark can still enter if they are
interested, and we could also get some others as well.

That's what I was trying to do, launch a contest.  Spread the word and see
if we get other entries.

How about launching a contest like how we did for Apache Flex Logo? ;)

Some designers from here might pitch in:

Lot of Flex themes out there.


If we are planning to go with FlatSpark theme, though it comes under
Apache, I feel it would be a good gesture if we contact and get a nod from
the owner. I'm sure he\she would appreciate it.

In order for the sources to be placed in our repos, it should be donated
by the owner.  We could use it as an external dependency, but IMO, it
really should be in our repo.

It has been released under the Apache License, which means it's OK for
us
to use if we chose to, isn't it?

Subject: [FlexJS]  Designers needed for default theme
Date: Tue, 20 May 2014 22:47:40 +0000

Hi,

So far, we've been using developer "art" for FlexJS examples.
Several
folks at 360|Flex agreed that it would be good to have a new theme
for
FlexJS.  It should not be Spark or MX revisited.  If anybody has
design
skills and wants to offer up a default look for a button, checkbox,
radio
button, text input, date field, etc, please post an Illustrator
file
for
review.  Like we did for the new Apache Flex logo, we'll have
discussion
and a vote.  It won't directly make you richer, but at least you'll
have
bragging rights.

Thanks in advance,
-Alex
