Multidmedia’s Reaction to Adobe’s Announcement about Open Sourcing Flex

05-09-2007 05:37 PM CET | IT, New Media & Software

Press release from: Multidmedia Limited

Multidmedia Limited the creators of Flash based development software Zinc V.2.5 have been inundated with that same question over the last week or so: What is our stance on Adobe’s recent announcement about open sourcing some of the component parts of flex?

The simple answer is that MDM welcomes the decision from one of the Industry Giants; any step towards supporting the open source community has got to be a step for the good.

Flex and Zinc work hand in hand; Adobe Flex Builder 2 provides an Eclipse-based environment in which developers can easily create richer, more expressive Rich Internet Applications. Zinc 2.5 ensures that the {mdm} Script 2.0 API is available for Flex developers and that Flex projects can easily be deployed as Zinc desktop applications for both Windows and Mac OSX systems.

“The basic concept behind Adobes decision is to make Flex more appealing to developers we want to encourage external contributions, in an endeavour to involve the developer community in the greater evolution of Flex.” Said Phil Costa, Director of product management of Flex at Adobe.

Multidmedia Limited (MDM) is an industry leading multimedia software company.

At MDM our aim is simple: to make great software. Established in 2002, we have quickly gained recognition as an industry leader in 3rd Party development tools for Macromedia Flash®. With meticulous attention to detail, innovative software and superb customer support, we aim to continue providing our customers with great software.

Apollo, Silverlight, Java & Zinc – It’s a Name Game
As we approach the public ‘beta’ of Adobe’s Apollo, the question naturally comes round to what is going to be the final name for their latest piece of software. We’ve been told that ‘Apollo’ is only the code name for the application and will be changed sometime soon. Looking from a marketing viewpoint, this could be a rather dangerous thing to do. The Apollo brand has to
Zinc Vs Apollo: Forum fighting, it’s all the rage!
‘It’s all getting rather interesting.’ Is how one web journalist put it to me the other day and I think that he’s right. According to the writings on the wall, or in this case the writings in the forums, the Adobe Apollo issue seems to be picking up a certain amount of momentum. The Adobe PR machine had begun to run for Apollo as they have been leaving
Apollo Vs Zinc™ Nothing of the Sort
