Macromedia has posted a pdf on their website briefly outlinig the future of Flash/Flex as seen by the Forrester research group.
Here are the key points:
- Flash Player keeps its sacred status. This is in reference to the ubiquitous penetration of the flash player.
- Flash MX tools slowly transform into part of the “Photoshop family.”
- Server products get much-needed marketing support. Adobe has stated that they will invest in the Macromedia server line including Flex to increase its market.
- Flash Video format gets instant credibility. Adobe will add support for Flash video to its current products Premiere Pro and After Effects.
- FlashPaper becomes a feature in Acrobat. It looks like FlashPaper is not dead afterall !!
