[FlexJS] Project Idea

[Peter Ent <pe...@adobe.com>]

It has been suggested to me that our Flex community team page could use some spicing up with some Flex. Specifically, FlexJS. The idea is that (http://flex.apache.org/about-people.html) would be a FlexJS application, presumably the JS code and not a SWF, which would allow members to maintain their profiles in some fashion. The profiles would be displayed in a grid, so the page would be very similar to what you see now, but it would just be easier to change your picture or edit your bio. Newcomers could easily add themselves to the page as well.

This is just an idea now, but if you'd like to contribute, or just toss out some ideas, post to this email thread. I'm not sure what we have on the server-side driving this page (including security) yet so I do not know what all it could be capable of, but it might make a nice showcase for FlexJS.

Send in your thoughts. No timeframe at the moment.

Pretty sure we can't run a server on our site, but we can post json or xml
files and pick them up via HTTPService.
