Anatole, 1. Yes I am very aware of how Firewalls and Proxies can wreak havoc on binary streaming protocols. AMF is not a binary streaming protocol, its simply a stateless HTTP POST of data. If a firewall can't handle AMF then it will likely have problems on things as simple as multi-part form PO

I asume that Macromedia had their reasons when they selected the name Flex. I can think of a couple of reasons: - Flex as Flash begins with the letters "Fl". This creates a connection between the two products, from a marketing point of view since also the logo is similar. - With the name Flex I
