Joa showed all of his Open-Source Eclipse plug-ins he wrote within the last months. He started to write a whole framework called Apparat to optimize flash applications in different ways like reducing filesize of embedded images and changing bytecode commands as well as using bytecode inline.
The result was an unbelievable groth of frames per second. Though not all of the plug-ins are ready to use it was very impressive to see what is possible at the lowest level of coding. So fasten your seat belts and take a look yourself how fast a SWF can be: Part 1 & Part 2.

Carlo Blatz met Joshua Davis and Branden Hall at FOTB in Brighton. They talked about their new Hype framework and how they try to bring programmers with FDT and graphic designers in the Flash IDE closer together. But check it out yourself:
As you might know the FDT Team is again an exhibitor at the Flash on the Beach in Brighton. Before they even arrived Michael Plank gave an interview about what the visitors can expect if they stop by at our booth.

Hi folks,
Happy New Year from the whole FDT Team, if it is still ok to say that at mid january!!!
2008 was a tremendous and crazy year for us, with lots of experiences, new FDT editions, tons of new features and we are proud to say, a huge step in the development of the best ActionScript Editor out there. But we do not stay still, we proceed.
2009 is going to be a very promising year with many sleepless nights, but also a brand new FDT feature we are all eagerly waiting for: MXML. With MXML, FDT will become THE solution for all people writing source code in the Flash and Flex World!! But there is more coming from the Powerflasher FDT Team:
We started our new FDT Training Center! You will get customized and standard trainings for AS3 and FDT. Furthermore, you can pass an exam and call yourself “FDT certified developer”.
We will launch “CIPHER”, the Obfuscator developed from Nicolas Cannasse and the FDT Team. Safety for Flash files!!!!
Our PDF Book enters the third dimension. Visualisation of Documents in 3D!!!
We will again come to your area!! Here are the events that we are supporting. We are looking forward to meet you there.

Roadshow New York City (contact us for appointments)
