I had a great time presenting my session today at FlashForum Konferenz in Cologne, Germany. I forgot to take a picture of the audience but I have lots of video footage to edit and put up in the coming days.

I added a couple of things to the presentation and announced for the first time that Flash 9 support may be coming sooner than we thought thanks to Joa Ebert who made me aware of the hxasm library by Nicolas Cannasse. Porting this over to PHP should provide us with the SWX Assembler in PHP for Flash 9 and thus Flash 9 support for SWX PHP should be just over the horizon. In fact, I'm going to be working on this during my week back in Brighton between MAX Chicago and MAX Barcelona.

We're leaving for dinner in about twenty minutes so I'm going to check some email, maybe Twitter and get ready but I wanted to say a big thank-you to the lovely audience and to Marc Thiele and Sasha Wolter for having me over.

I'm in Cologne for another two days and will be flying back to the UK on the 27th. I'm staying the night at a hotel by the airport at Heathrow and heading out to Chicago on the 28th.

Oh yeah, and here's a very warm Happy Birthday to my dear father, who is 63 today! Love you, Dad! :)

  4. Hey Aral, your presentation was a blast, indeed. It was very nice and had great laughs, still we all got enough and useful information about SWX and its features. Hopefully, the ff-community will enjoy your presence at the next flashforum conference!

  9. Hi Marcus,

    I’m going to make the slides available as soon as I can. The presentation is evolving everytime I give the talk so the slides will be changing a bit too. I’ll try and keep it updated.

  10. Hi Aral! It was a little while ago but we met at the flashforum conference. I simply wanted to say hello again and ask you about some of the pictures you took during the conference. And did you a little interview with André? Keep up your inspiring work! Best regards from Berlin. M.
