@coldFUSED: We definitely hear you

One of our main concerns is to make sure that the code Thermo creates works for developers. I used to work on HTML authoring tools, so I'm pretty familiar with the difficulty of clean code generation. One thing that makes it more tractable for us is that unlike HTML, we control the language and framework.

On that note, Ely Greenfield, the Flex architect, gave a great talk at MAX discussing some of the ways we're planning to refactor the Flex framework to make skinning much more flexible. By having a cleaner separation between the presentation and the underlying controller logic and data for each component, we can actually make it so the designer can really own the design of the presentational aspects without affecting the code the developer needs to work on.

Thanks,
