Erain when will you release Swift3D version 5?

Erain , the makers of Swift3D (is the tool where you can create 3D objects in vector format) should be coming out with a new version of Swift 3D soon. (Version 5)

My friend Lucas came back from FITC 2007 and got this card with a 15% discount for Swift3D version 5. I said, “Oh wow!” But as soon as I get to the site (www.erain.com), they’re still at version 4.5. I am wondering when this will come out?

It might be that they are trying to focus on their StandOut program.

CNET news gave an update on Flex 3.

Here are some notes.

  • The Flex 3 beta comes out in June of which will be released by the end of this year. (November?)
  • Open sourcing Flex follows Adobe’s initiative of pushing more developers to code RIA apps for Apollo. Last year, Adobe donated its Actionscript engine to the Mozilla foundation who make Firefox.
