Hi, Reggie! Thanks for welcoming me to the group. I've been running a Flex study group the past year and we've just been doing little projects to learn more. I need to buckled down with the practice exams and see where I stand. Been using Moock's AS3 book and took some Fig Leaf training.
How about you? Any materials that you're finding helpful?
Not yet, but soon. Main tool is a package called SuperCollider. We can send data to the SuperCollider engine from anything that can speak a protocol called Open Sound Control (OSC). So far we've got a couple of prototypes with Java, and looking control how the sonification engine runs from a Flex dashboard.
Thanks for the welcome. I'm a freelancer and have been doing almost exclusively Flex/php/sql lately. I'm a bit of a newbie, but I can usually make things work. I'm looking forward to seeing what others around portland are doing and see if I can learn to do things more elegantly.
I'm sorry I missed the January meeting. Will there be another soon?
I find that AS 3.0 is still lacking some OO features, like method overloading and no real support for Abstract classes. Of course there are the work arounds, but I'm hopeful that in time these these holes will be filled. Other than that I must say that Flex has a seriously robust event system in place.

I'm curious to see it work. Maybe you can demo it next meeting.
thanks, I'm glad you found it interesting. Flex is quite an amazing environment.
