If you are a Flex or Flash developer, maybe I don't have to explain who they are. Maybe you are even using one of their tools: FDT, one of the most advanced ActionScript IDE out there.

The Powerflasher GmbH is located in Aachen, Germany. Since 1997 they develop online and offline multimedia applications like RIAs, games or WBTs. The team of 30 specialists, primarily focussing on the Flash Platform, provides services for creative and technologically innovative content.

Cooperation on Open Source

Although created solely by Spicefactory, Parsley had already been used as an inhouse framework at Powerflasher starting in early 2004. So some modules of these frameworks have been used in production environments for more than six years. Of course that was an AS2 version back then. So when I decided to take the next step and release the port to AS3 as Open Source in 2007, they offered to act as a partner for the releases. They are kindly providing part of the required infrastructure, hosting the Subversion source repository and Jira issue tracker for all Spicefactory projects.
