John Wilker, one of the creators of the 360 conferences, faced an interesting dilemma: How to let his attendees update their schedule for the 360|Flex conference, whether they were online or offline? His solution was an AIR application, of course. In this series, he explores the process of building an AIR application with Flex and dissects the code for you. Part I covers the planning of the application and goes somewhat into the MXML that he used. Subsequent parts will cover the code in much greater depth.
