Hi Sanjay (and group), I've just started using Flex with Java and did not want to start using FDS, simply because clustering is something we require and currently cannot take the 20K+ licensing fees. We've developed a solution with actionscript and a servlet that does compressed xml back and forth (binary over the wire) and was wondering what the community's interest would be? We are looking at creating a more robust version and releasing it possibly open source.
Any ideas?
