Here Ihave to say: Wrong, IMHO you haven´t understand Flash

Flash is much more than a effectgenerating software, in fact I don´t 
know which effects you are talking about, there is no such thing like an 
effect if we talk about effetcs you can get using AE, Combustion or any 
3d-software

When I am talkingabout Flash as FE I am thinking in the RIA term of MM, 
that is anything but offering "effects"

I know about ming in the way I know it exists, but as far as I know for 
building RIAs it is not the right "tool" (if we can call that a 
"tool"),well better just not the way to go

And if you want a FlashFE, go ahead an build one, there is no way to 
make a general all the needs fitting way to provide such thing, and by 
the way, you just need the DB feeded by TYPO3, the FE output is 
generated using AS,at least in my case, querying the DB directly, 
anything else, like having Flash working with XML output from TYPO3 is 
just to slow compared with FlashRemoting

IMHO, talking about RCs or RIAs you can use TYPO3 for managing your 
content, that is ,contentmanagement, but IMHO why should it take care 
about the FlashFE generation , will you manage your content or are you 
looking for an anyformatFEgenerator ?

And by the way ?

Does it generate the html/xhtml for you ?

There are some templates in, sure, anything else has to be done by 
you,writing your very own html/xhtml file

SO having this offer of x times ~170hrs I wouldnt waste it for anything 
else but really TYPO3 related stuff, and the last thing we need at the 
point beeing are "effects"

just my 2 cents
