The DRK has a number of Flash components that are useful to developers as well as archived copies of the articles on DesDev. The components are ones created by Macromedia that aren't available generally.

It's an enhancement to Flash Remoting

I guess, it will evelve into something like MSDN , and an attempt to move towards generating some subscription income (in the future)?

Oh, and I hate the way the underlines disappear on the link when you move over it, why don't they go the whole hog and make the text white as well!!

Thanks for the interest. Tutorials, code samples, examples, articles and components are ongoing work. Much of this material is available for free reading on the Macromedia Designer & Developer Center, and there are many components available for free download at the Macromedia Exchange.

This Developer Resource Kit includes those web-distributed materials collected together in a local CD, as well as some additional high-value components developed after release. Not everyone will want them, true, but we're trying to prove there's a business case for post-release materials to make development faster and easier.

(For what it's worth, initial demand for this CD has been higher than expected... gratifying response.)
