[RT] Targeting other runtimes
I've always liked mxml and Action Script, and favored developing in
these languages over Xaml and javascript and html.
I'd like to be able to build a client app, using Flex, that targets a
runtime other than the Flash player, for instance WinRT.
That's my random thought.

Jason,
While you can't target WinRT directly, you can target Adobe AIR, which will
make native Windows based applications. The same code can also target
MacOSX, Android, iOS and Blackberry QNX devices.
There is a large interest in decoupling Flex from the FVM, but no work has
been done on this efforts as of yet.

Lots of people are interested in this. See past discussions in the
archives.
