Well it's not dead per se.  It looks to be adding them into the web based 
virtual machines.   I am hoping they will just make a new namespace inside AS 
so you can keep your old components while having the ability to transition in 
some new features.  Such as moving from MX to Spark.  Then we could keep our 
idea of compiling for X.

At the same time, Adobe plans to continue its next-generation virtual machine 
and language work as part of the larger web community doing such work on 
web-based virtual machines.

To me this means the fulfillment of something we mostly predicted a while ago. 
Adobe will begin playing even more with others and will contribute more to 
things like web kit. We will see some tooling and Flash Player play a less 
important role over the coming years. It's not a big surprise, I could never 
figure out how they were justifying the investment in their new virtual machine 
anyways, and I really don't see it impact Apache Flex in the least for years to 
come.
