Before voting please review the section, What are the ASF requirements on approving a release?, at: http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#approving-a-release At a minimum you would be expected to check that: - MD5 and signed packages are correct - README, RELEASE_NOTES, NOTICE and LICENSE files are all fine - That you can compile from source package - That the SDK can be used in your IDE of choice - That the SDK can be used to make a mobile, desktop and browser application When testing please check the md5 and asc files and make sure that the source can be compiled. Please vote to approve this release: +1 Approve the release (PMC members: please add (binding) to your vote) -1 Veto the release (please provide specific comments to why) This vote will be open for 72 hours or until a result can be called.

Remember existing voters can change their vote during the voting process. When voting please indicate what OS, IDE, Flash Player version and AIR version you tested the SDK with. Please put all discussion about this release in the DISCUSSION thread not this VOTE thread. For your convenience, I have added an Ant script to the RC folder. This ant script automates the checks a voter should perform on the RC. It will: - download the default source package for your OS (use -Dpackage.suffix to override) - run md5 and gpg checks (this assumes you have gpg installed in your path) - uncompress the source package - install and run rat - display the rat report and ask you to verify - display the rat report without the AL files and ask you to verify the non-AL files - display the README and ask you to verify - display the RELEASE_NOTES and ask you to verify - display the NOTICE and ask you to verify - display the LICENSE and ask you to verify - run the build and any tests run by the build. You should be able to go away for a while during the build. When it is finished, it will display information to be copied into the vote thread. You are not required to use this script, and more testing of the packages and build results are always encouraged. To use this script (assuming you have Ant installed), it should be as simple as: - Create an empty folder - Download ApproveSDK.xml into that folder from: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/flex/sdk/4.14.0/rc1/ApproveSDK.xml - Run: ant -e -f ApproveSDK.xml -Drelease.version=4.14.0 -Drc=1 Thanks, EdB -- Ix Multimedia Software Jan Luykenstraat 27 3521 VB Utrecht T. 06-51952295 I. www.ixsoftware.nl -- Ix Multimedia Software Jan Luykenstraat 27 3521 VB Utrecht T. 06-51952295 I. www.ixsoftware.nl

Re: The Player, a case for an independent Flash Player
I wish you well, but the idea has been tried a number of times before, and because it wasn't able to use the Adobe Flash hardware abstraction layer to access accelerated / battery optimised decode and display, never mind video DRM, they tended to top out around compatibility with Flash Player v9 or v10. For instance, it's been a top GNU project 'wish list' for years now: https://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/ Tom
Re: The Player, a case for an independent Flash Player
+1 I have been very angry about it as well. I'm also very upset at Adobe CEO and the Adobe evangelists who made the decision for millions of developers to remove Flash from Android (and slow Flash development tremendously). They didn't consult the community of developers, businesses and startups who invested many years of hard work and money into the Flash Platform that depends on Adobe supporting Flash. I think RIM and Google were touting the Flash plugin was available for Android and Blackberry phones. That was the reason many people chose Android over iOS. When Adobe removed Flash for mobile they probably cost Google and RIM 100's millions. I've talked to ex Flash developers and they've said to move on but it's been ten years of learning and creating with Flash. That's not different than a doctor going to school for 8 years and then being told they're education and experience is no longer relevant and the only reason is because another type of doctor (a clown doctor) is more popular and really because one company (Apple) wants to make more money. What Adobe and Apple are trying to take away, in my opinion, is a canvas. The same as canvas is to a painter, the Flash Player is a canvas for creativity; for art, for sound, animation, video and written content. What's being taken fought over is a form and a channel for creative expression. Apple and Adobe are killing creativity and the means to send and receive it (to make a buck and be popular respectively). Anyway, I don't know if I would go about creating a new Flash Player but rather expose the truth and get plugins allowed on mobile then get Adobe back into the Flash platform. Irregardless, I support you Stephane! On Sun, Jan 18, 2015 at 10:13 PM, Stephane Beladaci adobeflexengin...@gmail.com wrote: @Carlos, I think we have to be careful with the open source term. I think the independent aspect is the key, as like I said earlier in the conversation the small piece of the Flash platform that is proprietary is the very reason why browser vendors have not be able to cripple Flash, have not been able to stop it from holding the web 10 years ahead of its time for 10 years straight, have not been able to refrain it from bringing the user experience of their desktop and mobile proprietary system. It is also why Jobs wanted it dead. On the other end of the spectrum, it is precisely because HTML5 is an open standard with implementation left to the browser that it has been a huge lie and a failure. Which takes us to @Erik, your point on the language is duly noted. You are right, this is not my forum. Regardless of the fact that I barely re-read and hardly edit my social media content by choice (I believe in authenticity and spontaneity, not diplomacy and even less political correctness), I should be more careful outside of my social media. You are also (see I was going to say d*6m) right I am angry! The concern should not be whether or not or why I am angry, but how can the large majority of the community not be? Where I come from, the people put an entire country on fire and kept their corporate world under control for less than what Silicon Valley alone has been inflicting to nearly every class of consumers, from general public, to developers, small businesses and enterprise. It was May 1968, not very long ago: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_1968_events_in_France. So yeah, I am angry, bitter, and not having any of it ever since the day Thoughts on Flash hit apple.com. I was on a contract at Adobe Consulting at the time, and was made aware almost in real time about what this was about. I have been consistent since 2010: Apple Steve Jobs' ban of Flash is the greatest and largest smear campaign, antitrust and corporate bullying scam in the entire history of Internet and the world wide web. It is the closest the modern civilized and democratic world got to Hitler burning books in the street of London with an entire nation applauding him for it. I have been called crazy, liar. and various species of animals for years. Some Adobe employees themselves challenged me on the antitrust nature of the corporate move, to the point I had to respond in social media with copy of correspondence with FTC and EU proving the ongoing international preliminary investigation of Apple for antitrust violations in regard to the ban of Flash and AIR. I have been told there is no monopoly so there cannot be antitrust (that comes from a tech press journalism). I wonder was 75% of digital entertainment market and 80% of mobile application market at the time of the ban should be called if not monopoly. The fact the market moved rapidly and changed the numbers does not change the fact that requiring developers who want to put an app on iPhone, which is the single point of entry to mobile market, have to 1/ buy a Mac and 2/ develop for Apple and Apple only, is not just antitrust but probably racketeering as well. I told Sheryl Sandberg

This is a bug in the release convenience tool ApproveSDK.xml, not

If you set the mentioned path variables for the entire system instead

Re: The Player, a case for an independent Flash Player
@Tom, I see your point and anticipate many others. We have the choice to be part of the problem or the solution. Let's say there is a show blocker, a piece of proprietary technology that we cannot engineer ourselves. I have two answer to that. First, I see a huge PR campaign to tell the world see, we the open source community could not do it, neither can you, now a round of applause for the innovation piece of technology and the company that RDed it. Second, I will find a way to have Adobe gibe it to us. I know too well how they go to the hardware acceleration of the MacBook themselves. Say thank you to the lawyers of the Federal Trade Commission. All it means is that the GNU misses the leadership to pull it off and make alliances, which is usually the pitfall of the nonprofit open source community and its allergy to corporations, without to mention the fear of IRS. I was blown away for instance that Apache could not provide tech support to enterprise. We lost an entire market over the lake of reliable support.

Re: The Player, a case for an independent Flash Player
@Jeffry, I do not think anyone in the company outside of the board had anything to do with killing the player on Android. It was making no sense for a good reason, there was no sense for it. I am making a case for the very credible possibility that the whole thing has been a conspiracy between Adobe and Apple based on coercion, with Hitler on one end, and a clueless CEO not capable to hold a 2 mn interview on the other. Now before to be once again an insult to the 5 years I spend getting to the bottom of this, before to call me crazy with my conspiracy theory, I invite whoever feels like it to do the same research. Go get, read, analysis and cross compare the thousands documents from those cases, and then come back tell me those two were not already conspiring based on coercion: High-Tech Employee Antitrust Litigation, case number 511-cv-02509 The Apple iPod iTunes Anti-Trust Litigation, case number 405-cv-00037 Hariharan v. Adobe Systems Inc., case number 511-cv-02509 Klein v. Cook et al, case number 5:14-cv-03634 Flash was getting pretty good on Android and started to make Apple look really bad. It was either Adobe kills it, and Apple makes AIR the rock-star of iOS, effectively putting a 30% on the free web and an end to the free enterprise, or else get exterminated. It destroyed the sales of CS4 with just 1 post on Apple.com. Even Eric Schdmoiy was scared of what this maniac and his overgrown corporation based on 3 products was capable of. Which brings us to... our shot at the court. I believe we, developers at large and Flash developers on the front line, have not just an antitrust case, but also possibly a course of action for racketeering. That is some serious leverage to get what we need from Adobe and Apple. What we need is an independent Flash player.

Re: [FLEXJS] Object.defineProperty
Actually, JSGoogEmitter.java still has code to emit that method, so, simply removing the override in FlexJS should get you started ;-) EdB On Mon, Jan 19, 2015 at 8:52 PM, Erik de Bruin e...@ixsoftware.nl wrote: Definitely!

The original motivation was to get enough SVG support to do the graphics/skinning. Folks needing to run something on older browsers can deploy the SWF version since those old browsers probably have Flash. If we’re going to make IE9 the baseline, should we start using Object.defineProperty instead of set_ and get_ functions? -Alex -- Ix Multimedia Software Jan Luykenstraat 27 3521 VB Utrecht T. 06-51952295 I. www.ixsoftware.nl -- Ix Multimedia Software Jan Luykenstraat 27 3521 VB Utrecht T. 06-51952295 I. www.ixsoftware.nl
Re: [DISCUSS] Release Apache Flex 4.14.0
Justin most likely forgot to recompile the SDK he was using to review my commits. He abandoned the discussion thread without further comment when I mentioned that possibility, basically confirming that assumption. I triple checked the solution on a fresh SDK and re-affirmed the validity of the Mustella tests I wrote for it. I just forgot to close the issue again... I'm sure the Release Manager will agree with me no change to the docs is needed ;-) EdB On Mon, Jan 19, 2015 at 9:18 PM, piotrz piotrzarzyck...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Erik, This issue is mentioned in release notes - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-34657 Justin comments it that is not fixed, so it probably should be removed from the Release Notes.
