Hi Peter, Price range for the full FES?
We haven't finalized and published this, but the intent is something along these lines: The pricing will start at free: An Express edition that is designed to be used for deployment of non-mission critical, low volume applications; mid-tier edition pricing for departmental and small/medium business applications that might be similar to the kind of pricing folks expect from things like ColdFusion Enterprise; up to pricing and licensing on a per CPU or per project basis for unlimited use targetting enterprise applications, or custom pricing for ISVs to embed in their application. The idea is to have appropriate entry points--starting at free for a wide range of low volume applications and scaling up with steps to meet the needs of various scale applications and customers so that everyone can take advantage of this technology and have a way to license it that fits the nature of their project. -David > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter Elst > Sent: Wednesday, February 01, 2006 2:38 AM > To: Open Source Flash Mailing List > Subject: Re: [osflash] Free compiler (was FW: [Fwd: Re: MTASC Future]) > > Thanks David, I remember reading that post but never expected > it to become a reality ;) Could you confirm whether or not > the free compiler will also compile AS3?
