I'll try to be helpful here, since I suggested the AS3 port. :) I'm not sure I'm really to jump in completely yet.<BR>
<BR>
I ran AS2API on Worldkit and generated a bare minimum documentation. (Errr... maybe I should have used a documentation scraper that supports AS3?!)<BR>
Its not much without documentation comments. Maybe documenting the AS2 would be a good place to start?<BR>
<BR>
I hope most of the brainless work can be automated. I tried two as2 -> as3 converters (spikefin and 5 1/2 blog). I haven't looked at the output, but I have attached it. <BR>
<BR>
I'd like to hear "administrative" view on how straight of a port should be considered and also who is interested in helping out. If there is a "critical mass," I might throw a little more effort into the idea.<BR>
