Comments on: Passing the AMFPHP torch http://wadearnold.com/blog/flash/amfphp/passing-the-amfphp-torch The spoils of the integration of PHP and ActionScript Wed, 19 May 2010 07:10:58 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Josh Chernoff http://wadearnold.com/blog/flash/amfphp/passing-the-amfphp-torch/comment-page-1#comment-10058 Josh Chernoff Wed, 10 Feb 2010 16:34:33 +0000 http://wadearnold.com/blog/?p=308#comment-10058 @Wade, replay to "You will soon find out that people appreciate open source by how much they pay for it. All the best!" I don't agree with that at all. My views are that if you don't like what your doing, don't do it. In contrast to that you can all ways tell when some one is passionate about some thing they do. That was something that I always admired about Patrick's work. I'm sure your a really nice guy and do great work for Zend, but I never got the impression that you liked working on AMFPHP. I'm glad you kept amfphp alive and even more glad that you handed it over to people who are passionate about it. Just as Ariel said, you could have let it die any time you wanted to. I realize that I have been a hypocrite by being as critical of your efforts yet at the same time not contributing my self. I hope to change that soon. I think I can speak for any one who has been critical of you efforts by saying that it was disappointing to see the progression that amfphp had with Patrick's efforts then to see that development progression drop off almost completely when handed over to you. But at the same time I'm sure most of us understand circumstance and that you tried to do what you can. Best of Luck at Zend, keep on creating. - Josh C @Wade, replay to “You will soon find out that people appreciate open source by how much they pay for it. All the best!”

Thanks for the work on AMFPHP and the support you gave me when I joined AMFPHP. I'm hearing some bad words about you, and I'd like to point out to anyone reading that if you really had just wanted Zend AMF to move forward and let AMFPHP die, you could have just ignored me, which you didn't. I'm sure there are bridges to be built between the two projects, as soon as the excitement dies down I hope we'll get the occasion to discuss them. bye Ariel Hi Wade,

I use it everywhere because it just works. I've got the workflow down so I haven't bothered with Zend very much. Perhaps some project will come along that will necessitate Zend. Until then I'm pimp'n for AMFPHP all the way. Long live AMFPHP. I use it everywhere because it just works. I’ve got the workflow down so I haven’t bothered with Zend very much.

I started out on AMFPHP, but I personally have come to like Zend_Amf better....mainly because it's being maintained and seems to integrate more seamlessly into Flex...though that could just be a matter of taste.
