Hi Alain, Although your numbers may be acceptable for your organisation, without disclosing methodology or making the process open, it has no more value than any other private poll. Sure, your numbers may be spot on, however they could also be so heavily biased that it would become immediately obvious they were flawed. For example you may work for Apple and are checking out the number of people that sign in to the iStore to buy things and discover, not surprisingly, that Flash is not popular at all.
As for the future of Flex/Flash, I have been in the industry long enough to have watched the "death" of numerous products. Java, for example, seems to die every 5 years. We have people today that are working in Perl and swear it is the best thing available, so I do not expect that Flex/Flash is going away any time soon. Whether it is something that has value for mobile phone users, or tablet users, etc. and how it stacks up against the competition there, I could not say. Even if it is only 5%, that 5% might be there for a long time.

And we def dont count every project in the world. But our numbers are very accurate. Dont get me wrong we love Flex as a technology( Even though we dont like ActionScript, but that s another story :) ) 95% of our customers simply wont use Flex on mobile. 2013/2/28 Lionel Pierre <lion...@medez.com> > @Alain Ekambi -- Where do you get such numbers?
