Welcome new PPMC Member & Committer, Justin Mclean
Hey Everybody!
I wanted to formally introduce Justin Mclean as our newest project
committer and PPMC Member. Justin is the director of Class Software and a
world traveler -- teaching classes on Flex and Arduinos. Justin is also a
certified Adobe Instructor and Expert for both Flex and ColdFusion.
As you can see, he has wasted no time and has already been contributing
some much needed localization resources :)

I have lost all ability to comprehend simple statements apparently...
I'm definitely having one of those days.

That's what he said ;) (though it should really have been " Anybody who does
won't go unnoticed")

I'm pretty sure you meant either
"Anybody who doesn't won't be noticed" or
"Anybody who does will be noticed"

The quickest way to become a committer or PPMC of the Flex project is to
start opening tickets and submitting patches via JIRA. Anybody who does
won't be unnoticed :)

Is this type of thing that gives a newcomer like me hope that I'm not
making a bad move in embarking upon Flex at this stage of the game.

Hi,
Thanks everyone for the for the welcome.
To get things started I've created a "patches" branch of the frameworks directory. To this I've checked in:
1. A new en_AU and en_GB locale (thanks goes to David for the en_GB files)
2. Changes the build framework script so that it will compile the 4.6 SDK against flash player version 10.2,10.3,11.0,11.1 and 11.2 beta.
If you want to use this branch you can either:
From a terminal window:
1. change directory to the checked out version of the framework
2. svn switch https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/flex/branches/patches .
Or from within Flash Builder (using subclipse plugin):
1. right click on the frameworks directory, select "Team", "Switch to another Tag/Branch/Revision..."
2. Enter "https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/flex/branches/patches" as to URL...
3. Press OK
If you want to compile the SDK for a different locale or flash player version just edit the values in build.properties and run the build_framework.xml ANT script. (Either from within FB or via a terminal).
For how to check out the framework as a Flash Builder project see this previous email:
http://markmail.org/message/mdulin5evouw77sf
Note that the instruction for building from within Flash Builder are slightly different from what is contained inside the current README.txt
Check it out the branch and have a play. I'd like to encourage people to start entering issues and patches into JIRA and we'll start applying them to this branch.
Thanks,
Justin

Good to have you on board Justin. Another step forward for Apache Flex.
