Chat with Adobe: AIR, Flex Ajax, and Open Source
Tomorrow, Adobe is hosting a live chat session on topics relating to RIA. and I'm polishing up the claws (just kidding).
You know RIA, Rich Internet Applications?
We're going to be chatting and answering questions on topics around Adobe on AIR, Flex, AJAX, and even (ta-da!) open source by yours truely. Well, I'm not going to answer the AIR, Flex, or Ajax stuff... we have really smart folks to do that.
But I'll be on hand to talk about openness at Adobe, and attempt to answer questions you might have. I won't claim to have all the answers, but just asking us questions could have an impact on wher Adobe goes in the open source world.
You'll be able to find the chat via a banner off the OSDN sites: Sourceforge and Slashdot.
or off Adobe at http://www.adobe.com/go/rialivechat.
The live Q&A session starts at a web browser near you at 4PM Eastern on September 18th, 2007 and runs till 6PM Eastern. So starting at 4AM Wednesday for China (Beijing), 5AM Wednesday for Japan (Tokyo), 10PM Tuesday for Germany (Berlin), 9PM for the UK (London), 6AM wednesday for Australia (Sydney), and so forth.
Anyway. I'm hoping to meet a bunch of you tomorrow and hear the questions you've got on RIA, AIR, Flex, Ajax, and especially on Open Source.

Would love to have heard the questions asked. I must admit that I'm pretty impressed with Adobe's plans in going into open source. Or, at least, that they're open to the open source community and the ideology behind it all. A company that mixes some open source ideology into business is bound for success. Going completely corporate is never good for anyone, and going extreme as far as open source is concerned is probably not profitable. So, I think Adobe are making some excellent inroads into this arena.

It’s great that you’ve included Open Source in your list of topics. And I’m glad that you’ll be the resource person. Just recently one of our tech people presented the benefits of OS and our boss liked it. For now, we’re planning to use it as we work on our next project. Since most of us are artists by nature, we’re all newbies in the world of Open Source. Unfortunately, neither of us may be there during your lecture. I really hope you can provide a podcast or some published material for us who can’t make it.
