http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Apollo http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Apollo:developerfaq Might be what he is talking about. *****SNIP***** What is Apollo? Apollo is the code name for a cross-operating system runtime being developed by Adobe that allows developers to leverage their existing web development skills (Flash, Flex, HTML, JavaScript, Ajax) to build and deploy Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) to the desktop. What type of applications does Apollo target? While a number of more traditional desktop applications can be built and targeted at the Apollo runtime, Apollo is targeted at making it easy to develop and deploy Rich Internet Applications to the desktop. It is this use case, deploying RIAs to the desktop, which is driving the feature set for Apollo 1.0. What types of developers is Apollo targeting? Apollo is targeted at developers who are currently leveraging web technologies, such as Flash, Flex, HTML, JavaScript and Ajax techniques to build and deploy Rich Internet Applications. Is Apollo free (as in beer)? Yes. The Apollo runtime will be free (similar to the Flash Player and Adobe Reader). ****/SNIP**** Andre On 2/1/07, Benjamin Tomhave <list-procurare () secureconsulting net> wrote:
