Dude, it will SOOO not take a year. I really don't think you are giving yourself enough credit. Flash Developers have an opportunity that the .NET & Java people do not; the ability to quickly get into Flex development.
We already know ActionScript, components, and how the Flash Player works; most of the Enterprise people who come to Flex are still stuck in the page model of thinking. Trust me dude, you don't need a year. Within 4 days of learning scope with MXML, I was good to go! I think with all the resources that are out there now, you will do it in less. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kurt Dommermuth" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Flashcoders mailing list" <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2005 9:27 AM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Fears and anxiety regarding Flex Stan, Michael, Jester and Weyert, thank you guys very very much for your responses. I can't say all my uncertainty has evaporated; just my nature i guess, but I'm on my way to feeling a little less anxious and a little more enthusiastic. Probably in about a year this will all seem manageable and hopefully I'll thoroughly understand it's usefulness and advantage. thank you list. Lurking and learning everyday.
