An afternoon with John & fellow Bangalore Flex Developers

John Koch is the Developer Relations Manager for India for Adobe products like FLEX, ColdFusion, Flash Mobile ...etc. Thanks to Abdul (for making this day possible) and Mrinal (for booking the place and getting people together).

I was surprised to see that there are so many people already doing FLEX development in Bangalore. There's Adobe (obviously), SAP, Mogulus, SunGard and bunch of free lancers and flash guys who recently picked up FLEX.

We had a nice chat about what can be done for the FLEX community in India and also some of their pain points with FLEX too...

As Mrinal puts it, "Thus the seeds for the Bangalore Flex community has been sown". We need to nurture this to make it a success. Keep watching flex-india.org for updates.

The Mogulus guys (Mark & Phil) and Me

Also read Abdul's and Mrinal's blog posts about the same...
For some reason, this post was in my drafts, just saw it today...
Says a lot about my "active blogging". I should be more careful...
