Re: FLASH: flash 5 problem

[Randy Kato]

James,


You're obviously a Flash developer, right? Why would you want JD to

chill. He's

working to make your authoring tool better. People that pirate

pre-release

software and release information about it do harm in many ways to the

entire

community.


If somebody illegally got a hold of one of your projects that wasn't

even

finished and started spreading rumors that you're a horrible developer

based on

that, you'd have to spend incredible amounts of time doing damage

control to

protect your reputation and your business, taking time away from

finishing that

project.


I'm sure MM wants new versions of software to be as solid and well-built

as

possible and to bring them to market in a timely manner -- we want

nothing

less. Mr. Dog is providing an obstacle to that end. JD's words may sound

severe, but it's a severe issue.
