Are These Forums Active?

Hey, so I was wondering if these forums are actually active and/or if issues posted here actually ever reach the development team?

From what I've gathered so far, most threads here remain unanswered or never reach a resolution. I don't mean to stir any trouble or anything, but it would be helpful for me to know if there are no plans to fix an issue I've posted. Just an acknowledgement would mean the world to me.

For some context, the issue I posted the other day is pretty serious, and basically renders AIR applications that implement the GameInput class unusable on Windows 7:

Bug Instantiating GameInput Class Causes Lag on Windows 7 in AIR 22+

If there are no plans to acknowledge an issue like this one can only assume that AIR's is no longer in active development outside of mandatory security patches.

The Air staff does reply from time to time in these forums, I assume depending what their schedule allows. The response rate on some bug tickets could be better, I agree. But then again they probably have way more tickets created than they can handle..

The last AIR SDK update is 2 months old. The last solved bug report is even older. Most forum posts have no answers, staff members only answer some trivial questions and don't solve real issues. Can you call this "active"?

Yes the Air team releases a new SDK round about every 3 month. The Air 25 Beta has been put live just now, there you go:

Adobe AIR 25 Beta | application development - Adobe Labs

It includes a solid number of bugs fixed.

Also maybe you overlooked the Air development forum next to this one?

AIR Development

As I said I agree there could be more, but then again I am quite happy with the status quo
