Comments on: Adobe AIR v1.1 Released, Enhanced Support for Internationalization http://ajaxian.com/archives/adobe-air-v11-released-enhanced-support-for-internalization Cleaning up the web with Ajax Thu, 09 Feb 2012 06:55:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2 By: eyelidlessness http://ajaxian.com/archives/adobe-air-v11-released-enhanced-support-for-internalization/comment-page-1#comment-265214 eyelidlessness Wed, 18 Jun 2008 18:08:15 +0000 http://ajaxian.com/?p=3760#comment-265214 @adoberob: Thank you very much for responding to the concern, I've seen it posed in a variety of places, and Adobe in general has a paucity of details about how Webkit is updated in AIR in their own materials. ¶ Can you tell us whether "a much newer version of Webkit" means you'll be targeting builds newer than the current release (for instance, a stable release of SquirrelFish)... or a general timeframe in which we might expect such a release? This information will be very helpful for what kind of expectations to have about in-development applications and the environment they'll be expected to live in, and will allow us to target future releases by using Webkit builds for most HTML/CSS/JS purposes. ¶ Again, thanks for your input. @adoberob: Thank you very much for responding to the concern, I’ve seen it posed in a variety of places, and Adobe in general has a paucity of details about how Webkit is updated in AIR in their own materials.

The next version of AIR will include a much newer version of WebKit. @patspam: We have a Linux alpha available on our Labs website. We're making excellent progress on a beta that will be near feature complete. It's an important priority for us. Stay tuned!

I'm disappointed that they didn't use a newer Webkit build. :( I have read their position on it, but clearly at least the Safari 3.1 release is not only stable, but a better candidate for AIR.
