Q: How soon is "soon"?
A: "Soon As". We're currently recompiling/testing with Adobe Air 1.0
(released 25th-Feb-2008 :)
Q: What will Air Commander do exactly?
A: Hopefully break new ground (Web 3.0) without breaking new hardware.
- Bring together apps which don't, in a traditional sense, play well together.
- Bring together scripts which do, oddly enough, work really well together.
- Bring together developers who can, finally, party over the internet!

Q: Who is it aimed at?
A: Firstly and primarily, it's aimed at coders who seek a frontier collab.
Secondly, it's aimed at designers who spend as much time dreaming creatively, as actually producing anything.
Thirdly, it's aimed at wannabe software testers, who proly suck at coding or designing, but luv gaming.
Q: Can i get lots of free code? (..or coffee and cookies?)
A: Yes. We suspect that Adobe Air is very well suited to opensource development/deployment.
- It's main languages are open (HTML, Javascript, Ajax), or commonly shared (Actionscript, Flex).
- It has free development tools (Air SDK, Flex SDK, Notepad, etc).
- It's runtime is intended to be widely distributed on most platforms (win/mac/linux) and other "hackable devices".
- It's most popular applications are likely to greatly enhance community-like connectivity. (Air Commander included)
Q: Will the code be GPL2·BSD·MIT licenced?
A: No. Our intent is to promote maximum code sharing, and in typical geeky fashion we have devised
our own tounge-in-cheek version of copyleft-scheme known as "WE Borg" Licence;
ALL RE-WRITES SERVED (copyleft 2008) {http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyleft}
"Anyone utilizing these codes shall take all practical steps to return improvements,
ammendments, and unauthorized adaptations back to the source (kustomzone.com) for
assimilation into the mastercopy for the benefit of the collective. Failure to comply with
the will of the collective results in forfeiture of all tech ..by any means of our discretion."
{ footnote: The Borg thou hardwired to advance by assimilation, were noticably void of other motives. }
