Does any one on this list know Peter DeHaan (He used to be Adobe). If so,
is it possible to reach out to him to figure out what happened with this
site (http://blog.flexexamples.com/) ? It was a very useful resource for
flex developers, and a lot of google searches still link to it.

By "showcase", I am thinking of an application showcase.  A component show
case is more like Tour De Flex.  And yes, the plan is to get Tour De Flex
donated.

I am hoping that a site providing more showcase of the new Spark components
will be setup like the one which Pete did on his site.

The current documentation we have is good but more examples will be more
awesome.

Will the Tour De Flex be donated to Apache Flex?

Hi,

The site isn't under the control of the Apache project so nothing directly we can do, but I believe the person who maintains the site hangs out here.

Thanks,

Yup. What I meant was, there used to be a working demo of the code, just
below the code snippet. But now it just displays 'Not found'. So I think,
working link might have got changed. Not sure what's wrong though.

Hi Om,
Is there a way to get back the working model too? There used to be a
working example for users to quickly see it just below the code snippet.
Right now it doesn't seem to be working for any of the flex examples. It
says, page not found.

Screenshot: http://snag.gy/QWp2N.jpg

I reckon its just about enabling the link there?

Good news!  The site is back up with a new look, hosting provider, etc.
Almost all the content should be available as before.  Peter is still
working some kinks out, but the site should be generally stable from now on.

Peter sends his apologies to the community for the downtime these past few
weeks.

I was pondering that.  I'm not sure what how migrate-able the data is.  I
don't know if Apache hosts blogs that don't use Apache Roller.

Another option is to try to crowd-source the cost of him using a slightly
more expensive provider that has better up-time.
