Flex & AIR 聚焦未来
At the Flashforward conference Kevin Lynch, Adobe's chief software architect, shed light on the ongoing development events around some of the company's core technologies, including Flash, Flex and the Adobe Integrated Runtime for developers and designers.
在最近的一次宣讲会上，ADOBE的软件架构师Kevin 透露Adobe正在进行的一些工作的情况。这些情况包括了Adobe的核心技术领域如：FLASH,FLEX,AIR
"We're really focused on video technology and helping you create experiences," Lynch said. Adobe intents on helping developers and designers plan, acquire, produce, manage, publish, deliver and play back video content.
“我们聚焦于媒体技术，试图协助开发者开发用户体验”Kevin 说，Adobe试图帮助开发者和设计者，计划，获取，制造，管理，发布，投递媒体内容。
Incredible progress" has been made with AIR, said Lynch. The second beta of AIR will also support access to local file system archives, user notification, applications updates, drag-and-drop capability and local storage, among other features. Yet, Adobe`s efforts are concentrated mainly on enabling AIR apps to run well on the desktop, taking advantage of Flash, as well as HTML and PDF. A beta of the AIR technology will be available in a couple of weeks.
“已经取得了令人瞩目的进步”Kevin 说道，AIR的第二个版本将支持本地文件系统访问，用户通告，程序更新，拖放以及本地存储。这些技术，Adobe的主要意图是让AIR能够更好的在桌面应用中发挥作用
Hitting on Adobe's most famous technology, Lynch went on with the upgrade to the current version of the product, Flash Player 9, known as "Moviestar" which highly enhances the video capabilities of the player.
