Today Adobe released AIR for Linux in Version 1.5 to catch up with the others. So in future Linux Users of AIR do not have to wait for new version. I think this is just another step of Adobe in the Linux world. I hope they will release also other Software simultaneously for Linux in future. For example Photoshop or other foto related programs of Adobe.

Install Adobe Air on Linux is really simple. Here some Screenshots of the steps:

At ZendCon this year we announced a partnership between Zend and Adobe. The goal of the partnership is to help make it easier for PHP developers to use Flex. Since then there has been a flurry of activity including blog posts and the introduction of Zend_Amf into the main trunk of Zend Framework.

As he mentions in his Blog, Kevin Hoyt posted several examples of how to use Zend_Amf for different things:

Charts

It became plenty obvious to me early on that charting solutions in the PHP world are lame. Busting out bitmaps on demand? Calculating dimensions, drawing lines, figuring out ranges? Whatever! These examples walk you through building really effective and powerful charts using the Flex Charting components. It starts simply enough with getting some data into a LineChart. Then we add data tips. Then we add styles. Then we add formatting. Then we add filtering. Then we add alternating views via a ViewStack. Then we pimp it out and bring the full Zend Framework web site look and feel into a fully interactive data visualization application.

And as Weierophinney said in the comments, Wade Arnold – the creator of Zend_Amf – posted also some important informations about Zend_Amf and AmfPHP.

One thing that changed in the Flash Player 10 for security reasons is that some APIS like the File Upload API, can not be accessed without User Action. That means for example that some Upload Scripts like SWFUpload or FancyUpload were broken, because they triggered the upload dialog in a hidden Flash movie. For now on this can’t be done. The Link has to be clicked by the user to trigger the Upload Screen.

There are many new Features:

3D effects New

Create more intuitive, engaging interfaces using built-in support for 3D effects. Get started quickly without being a 3D master by designing in 2D and easily transforming and animating in 3D. Fast, extremely lightweight, and simple-to-use APIs, along with 3D tools in Adobe® Flash® CS4 Professional software, make motion that was previously accessible only to expert users via ActionScript® language or custom third-party libraries available to everyone.

Custom filters and effects New

Create high-performance, real-time effects for cinematic experiences that quickly engage users. With new Adobe Pixel Bender™, the same technology behind many filters and effects in Adobe After Effects® software, these dynamic and interactive effects can be used both in production with After Effects CS4 and live with Flash Player 10. The Pixel Bender just-in- time (JIT) compiler can also be used to process other types of data, such as sound or mathematical functions, asynchronously in a separate thread.

Advanced text support New

Take advantage of a new, flexible text layout engine that brings print-quality publishing to the web, building on more than 25 years of Adobe expertise in typography. Gain more control over text layout using an extensible library of ActionScript 3.0 text components to flow text and sophisticated typographic elements such as ligatures across multiple columns, around inline images, bidirectionally, vertically, or chained together. Create multilingual rich Internet applications (RIAs) using device fonts that can now be anti-aliased, rotated, and styled, or build your own unique text components.

Dynamic sound generation New

Use enhanced sound APIs to dynamically generate audio and create new types of audio applications such as music mixers and sequencers, real-time audio for games, and even audio visualizers. Work with loaded MP3 audio at a lower level by extracting audio data and supplying it to the sound buffer. Process, filter, and mix audio in real time through the Pixel Bender JIT compiler to extend creative freedom beyond the visual experience.

Drawing API Enhanced

Perform runtime drawing more easily with restyleable properties, 3D APIs, and a new way of drawing sophisticated shapes without having to code them line by line. Developers can tweak parts of curves, change styling, replace parts, and use custom filters and effects, delivering improved throughput, creative control, and greater productivity. Enhancements to the Drawing API add the z dimension, real perspective, textured meshes in 3D space, a retained graphics model, read/write rendering, and triangle drawing with UV coordinates, while adding memory and improving performance.

Hardware acceleration Enhanced

Use the hardware processing power of the graphics card to paint SWF files into the browser and accelerate compositing calculations of bitmaps, filters, blend modes, and video overlays faster than would be performed in software.

Vector data type New

Use the new typed array class for better performance, efficiency, and error checking of data.

Dynamic Streaming New

Show exceptional video with streams that automatically adjust to changing network conditions. Leverage new quality-of-service metrics to provide a better streaming experience.

Speex audio codec New

Take advantage of the new, high-fidelity and open source Speex voice codec, which offers a low-latency alternative for voice encoding. Flash Player also supports ADPCM, HE-AAC, MP3, and Nellymoser audio.

File upload and download APIs Enhanced

Bring users into the experience by letting them load and save files from your web application. New file reference runtime access allows local processing of data without roundtripping to the server.
