It will also allow for local caching which might help with performance increases as well as file I/O (which I believe you already have with zinc?).
I've written a fair bit about Apollo on my blog (some factual, some opinoin) and there's the mxna smart category. Mike Chambers<http://weblogs.macromedia.com/mesh>and Ryan <http://blogs.zdnet.com/Stewart/> Stewart <http://blog.digitalbackcountry.com/>also write quite frequently about it and there is a podcast interview at talkcrunch with Kevin Lynch<http://www.talkcrunch.com/2006/12/16/here-comes-adobe-apollo/>as well as an overview on techcrunch <http://www.techcrunch.com/2006/12/16/preparing-for-apollo/>that has had a fair amount of attention. Hope that helps :) Dan On 07/01/07, Weyert de Boer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
